put ram to 800 mhz which some one told me too ,its ballistix tracer 8500 1066
so it could be that ,managed to get 3dmark vantage result which was 12677

k just checked an ram freq is now 855 thats cause i upted the fsb frequancy so do i make it lower than 855 or should it be ok at 855 ,also nb voltage is @1.360v so changed to 1.4v going to run the blend test again

It will be fine.. you have PC2-8500 so you would have a lot to play with. You would need to be running your FSB > 533MHz before it's overclocked.

Because you have PC2-8500, I would select a memory ratio that it's nearer to 1066MHz so you utilise the full memory bandwidth.

I would agree once his finished getting a CPU clock.. no point adding extra variables that need to be checked when an overclock fails.. best to keep the RAM slow and out of the picture
