I have a E8500 E0 stepping on a GA-EP45-UD3P, with Crucial Balistic DDR2-6400 (2G x 2) and a XFX Geforce 260/216...
Using Lsdmeasap MOST excellent guide to my memory.. and setting for it.. I have gotten to 500 FSB with the memory running @ 1000...
The problem I have is that I don't understand the System Memory Multiplier.. I have it set to 2.00D but I really don;t understand why.. why yes I am a "noob" My proc I think has a 1333 FSB.. so by running at 2.00D doesn't that drop it to 1000? though my memory is much faster like this..
Anyway.. I can overclock the E8500 to 3.5Ghz with these settings.. which are just for the memory.. but I seem to have issues going higher.. I really want 4-4.2Ghz
What should I try? Just bosting the Vcore doesn;t seem to help...
