if u wan 1:1 ratio, u hav 2 set multiplier to 2.
but u usually do dat it u OC fsb beyond the speed ur RAM can handle.
i c ur ram multiplier is set to 2.4 which bring ur ram speed to 378*2.4=453.6*2
i'll say its kinda waste since ur ram can do @ least 1066. u can set ur ram multiplier to 3.0

EP45-DS3 shud v able 2 OC ~ 500.
if it is not stable, i suspect other stuff lke ram voltage & vcore.

& 1 last thing, next time, use "print screen" button on ur keyboard............................

i dun think u need 2 touch the nb voltage yet. 378 is still actually low fsb.
can if get pass 378 if set vcore higher?
wen oc, i suggest dat leave the RAM multiplier to 2 first.
after u happy on ur processor speed & fsb, den only OC & tighter the RAM timing.

there is a recommendation from intel wat the vcore range shud b, like q6600 is 0.8 - 1.5
not sure bout e8400, i;m sure u can gogle it or find it @ intel website.

higher vcore means higher temperature, if 2 hot, ur system will restart. dun worry, won't burn on the spot.
100% load temperature after OC is preferable b ~65.

4.0 u'll need 2 up vcore.

RAM timing also depends on ur RAM speed.
slower u can tighter it, if fast, u hav 2 loosen it.

of coz tighter is better, but more speed pays more den tighter timing.
