stuck at 295mhz fsb? have you checked whether your pci bus is locked?

The AGP/DDR Asrock board runs on a 865 chipset, 295fsb is considered fantastic already. Practically all 865/875 boards (mostly socket 478) would not go beyound 300fsb without voltmodding, and even with suicide voltmodding it will only reach ~320-330fsb. So sorry pal, 295fsb is as far as you can go; you're not gonna be able to get that e4400 any faster than you are already.

The 775Dual-VSTA uses Via PT880Pro/Ultra chipset.. but you are right, there's an FSB wall at around 300MHz for this board... sad.gif

Hmm, I haven't been keeping up to date then. But then again VIA chipsets haven't been known for good overclocking since the nforce and intel 8xx/9xx chipsets came out.

Heck if you can already max out the FSB even additional vCore isn't going to help. Motherboard won't let you go any higher anyway.

Well, since the fps is already above 30, it should not be very noticable in terms of real life usage. Above 60-80fps its completely unnoticable because even the monitor can't update that fast..

the mobo does have a fsb around 290-300mhz ..

as for mine,  i only manage to get it run at 285*9 = 2.565ghz with my e4300

try disabling the "Flexibility Options" ..
i tried that and now my memory is running 1:1 at 295mhz (590mhz)...

i'm using kvr ddr2 667 1gb by the way

some tips from fellow forumers say don't overclock the pcie freq more than 110mhz ..or u'll damage the card ..

Yup, like mentioned earlier, the board can't go higher than ~300 fsb. And there is no reason to overclock the PCI-E-the performance increase is hardly noticeable, and its a lot of trouble keeping the system stable if you try to overclock it (might even damage it). Just keep it at default (100MHz).
