I was wrong. Mine is 2-6-3-3 as well. I was at work when i made that last post. I checked it when i got home as saw i was wrong. What did you up the Voltage to? 2.7?

yep, i just checked 2.7v. apparently there was an option safe zone-b/t 2.5 and 2.9 i think-2.7 seems to be the most popular setting for performance ram-read it on websites and my ram manufactere's website.

Im stuck again man. Our ram has the same timings. I have the Geil Ultra 2-6-3-3. 2@256 DDR400. DO you have the same?

whenever you change ram timings and fsb always check your ram for errors with -Memtest86-
its a util you run from a floppy disk at bootup and if your memory aint 100% stable it will tell you.
a memory can work 100% in windows and even games even if its not 100% error free but it wont last as long (obviously). so therefor its good to test the memory with memtest86 so you REALLY know if it actually is 100% error free

i personally ran my memory at some timings and fsb for a few months before i found out with memtest that my memory was not 100% error free. and there i was thinking it was perfect and all
