Just a quickie, if my E4300 is set to a 337.5 MHz bus, is the maximum speed of my RAM automatically restricted to 675MHz? If I try to set the FSB to unlinked and the RAM to 800, the computer refuses to boot. If I set the RAM to 675, it works perfectly. I have noticed this on another computer I built where despite having 2GB of DDR2-800 OCz RAM present only reports a 4.8 Vista score, the same as the stock clocked CPU.
 
No its not, but you wont really see any significant advantage of running it faster anyway.
No idea why yours wont boot unlinked, mb needs more RAM voltage?
