As I recall you are on a 975x chipset motherboard. I do not know the BIOS or the board however simply by what you have posted thus far I think you have just hit the tip of the iceberg for CPU/FSB/Memory clock. The memory and FSB have the ability to run higher on that board assuming you have the right PSU and other supporting devices that may be needed. A bootstrap of the northbridge at 1333MHz may be possible too.
Bottleneck here would be my Ram. It's only DDR 667.
I could push it higher than 333 Mhz, but then I'd have to set my Ram timings to "by SPD" again to avoid startup errors.
Would be a higher Ram Frequency but slower Ram timings better than my current Ram setup?
Newer Asus boards have a northbridge bootstrap of 1600FSB/401+Mem MHz
Already been at 416 Mhz (as shown), but didn't feel comfortable.
If the BIOS allows access to the speedstep, thermal control, shut those down and give you full control of the CPU internals.
I already shut them down.
If the CPU multiplier becomes available for down-clock or a reduction of multiplier, it can be dropped and the FSB/Mem raised. In some cases depending on the motherboard, the Core2 CPU multiplier can be dropped but not raised.
This is the case here. I'm at 9 at the moment - highest avaiable.
I would suspect it could run around 3.4-3.8 as long as the Vcore, Memory and northbridge voltages are maintained correctly and manually.
Yeah, could be done easily, but as I said...I'm worried about my Ram not being able to take it.
[quote]Also, above 1333FSB, LDT needs to be reduced from 3x to 2x. (or from 600 to 400) Some BIOS
