Hi guys I'm having problems getting my RAM to run 1:1. No matter what I try, I just can't get it to run 1:1 with FSB.
Now that I think about it, I cant get it to run any lower than 1066
higher than 1066 is no problem.
Now this is a bit of a problem as my CPU can go much further, but the RAM not running 1:1 means I can't go any higher.
My spec & BIOS settings are:
Maximus Formula - Q9550 - Corsair 8GB Dominator 8500 (4x2GB)
BIOS 1207
Ai Overclock Tuner : Manual
CPU Ratio Setting : 8.5
FSB Frequency : 400
FSB Strap to North Bridge : 400 (will not boot @ any other setting)
PCI-E Frequency : 101
DRAM Frequency : DDR2 - 1066 (can't go lower, will not run 1:1)
DRAM Command Rate : Auto
DRAM Timing Control: Auto
DRAM Static Read Control: Auto
Ai Clock Twister : Auto
Transaction Booster : Auto
CPU Voltage : 1.25
CPU PLL Voltage : Auto
North Bridge Voltage : 1.51v
DRAM Voltage : 1.98v
FSB Termination Voltage : Auto
South Bridge Voltage : Auto
Loadline Calibration : Enabled
CPU GTL Reference : Auto
North Bridge GTL Reference : Auto
DDR2 Channel A REF Voltage : Auto
DDR2 Channel B REF Voltage : Auto
DDR2 Controller REF Voltage : Auto
SB 1.5V Voltage : Auto
Voltiminder LED : Enbled
NB LED Selection : NB Volt
SB LED Selection : SB Volt
CPU LED Selection : CPU VOlt
CPU Spread Spectrum : Auto
PCIE Spread Spectrum : Auto
Advanced CPU Configuration
CPU Ratio Setting : 8.5
C1E Suppport : Disabled
CPU TM Function : Disabled

Execute Disable Bit : Disabled
Max CPUID Value Limit : Disabled
What am I doing wrong guys???
