ok heres the problem. when overclocking (over 1200mhz fsb) the ram starts to go doo-lally. although i select un-linked in the overclocking options (between mem & cpu) it still does it. i set the ram to 800mhz and cpu to anything over 1200mhz fsb and it refuses to stress test and the timings go all loose! any ideas would be great! thanks in advance.

what i've discovered.... as soon as the ram speed changes at all (even going down) it goes doo-lally. i got my OC to 3.2ghz but i couldn't benchmark coz the ram (@ 700mhz!) kept failing. :(

maths is something you want to be good at if you're gonna mess around with all thesettings/ ratios, or get a calculator.
