Ah this BIOS does not even have Static tRead Value option, and MemSet cannot change it either.

Ya, it's not a good board to overclock with.

So you get things going now? If not let us know what the issue is and what you tried.

Just checking in

My current settings look like this:

System Memory Multiplier ..............: Cannot change this
Memory Frequency (Mhz) ..............: 800
DRAM Timing Selectable ................: [Manual]

Standard Timing Control
CAS Latency Time........................ 6
tRCD ......................................... 6
tRP'........................................... 6
tRAS.......................................... 18

Set all Suggested below to highest Values first. Then later you can lower, one at a time, testing as you go

Advanced Timing Control
tRRD........................................... 5
tWTR.......................................... 6
tWR............................................ 6
tRFC........................................... 68
tRTP........................................... 5
Command Rate (CMD) ....................:2

I haven't changed the Standard Timing Control i.e. CAS Latency Time, tRCD, tRP' & tRAS. Should I lower those as well ? If so, How much ?
Oh and show I keep lowering the Advanced Timing Control settings gradually to the lowest figures quoted by you ?

Compare with MaxxMEM and see what's better.
My Guess is you better with default than your current settings, and if it's stable leave it at that.

I lowered it to the lowest listed settings in the post by Lsdmeasap but I think it resulted in the same memscores as my default one so I reverted them to the first settings I did and received these scores. I think I'll stick with them unless someone else has any ideas to improve it :)
