for my case, i lower down the HT frequency, raise a bit nf4 voltage... no need to raise the vcore.. then hit 300HTT, the current problem is temp reading which reached almost 50c during idling....

but if you set 1:1, isnt the FSB speed is limited by the RAM? as RAM is unable to work as high as FSB...

Amazing mobo,
I oc my Sempron64 3000+  up to 2.6GHz (306x8.5) with latest bios, although I had to do it from Windows. ClockGen and A64Tweaker is all you need.

memory (DDR400 2.5c):
3-8-8
tRC:8
tRFC:16
Max Async. Latency: 5ns
Read Preamble time: 6ns
Idle Cycle Limit: Enable
tWTR: 3
tRTW: 2
freq 200Mhz
tREF 200Mhz(15.6us)

set HTT to 3x
set CPU multiplier to 8.5

A64Tweaker
  Set freq to 166MHz and Apply
  Set tREF to 166mhz(15.6us) and Apply
ClockGen
  Raise FSB 'til memory reach almost 200Mhz
A64Tweaker
  Set freq to 133MHz and Apply
  Set tREF to 133mhz(15.6us) and Apply
ClockGen
  Raise FSB 'til memory reach almost 200Mhz
result:=2.6GHz

wow, the latest bios do the trick on the speed? shocking.gif Arent those MSI bios programmers lock the bios and dun allows us to OC it? Are you sure you are using the latest BIOS @ v1.7? whistling.gif
