Hi Guys

I have a E6420 in the above board with 2gb Ballistix 5300 and I think I have a FSB wall stopping me clocking higher than 3.4ghz?

Even if I use a multiplier of 6 instead of 8 I can't got passed 426 which is only 2.5ghz :confused: it doesn't even show the bios screen just starts/restarts and sets some of the chip settings to auto :confused: My memory is set to 2.00 = 1:1 834mzh and I know the Ballistix can go higher so I can't see it being that, all other bits are disabled in the bios!

No matter what vcore I put through it, running a Thermalright 120 Extreme cooler with a large silent fan.

Is the FSB wall caused by the motherboard? If so is there any way to correct it?

Any advice would be helpful :(
