I'm running 2G OCZ PC2-8500, and can't complete 3D Mark 06 unless I underclock to 800MHz. In fact, it locks up at the same frame each time (when the scary dragon jumps over the blimp)

EXACTLY my problem man.

Most of my 3Dmark06 lock ups happen on that Canyon Flight test.
The dragon jumps out of the water and everything hangs up. Unless I underclock my ram.

Thats exactly my problem to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've managed to get my rated speed though now.....but i don't know if it is really giving me much of a performance boost.....

try disabling SLI memory......run the memory "linked" on the 4:5 divider...

set your timings manually & make sure the Vdimm is sufficient..

that may help

That is because you don't hear from the people the board is working well for

No point posting if an item is working now

Make a link to any support forum and you will see a ton of problems tbh

Running the latest version of 3DMark 06 the error does not occur. Futuremark have made a small change to their program. Instead of pointing the finger at the board, someone should have been asking - is it the board, the fact that it has to be an 8800 or the drivers? And why does it only happen in 3DMark 06? Answer? Because 3DMark 06 was not perfect either!
