memory - G.Skill 2GB DDR HZ PC4000 (2x1GB) CAS3 Dual Channel Kit (F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ)

i think the first thing u should do is raise the FSB ( by 5 increments), dont worry about the memor divider yet because from looking at your ram you can raish the FSB by 50Mhz and nothing will happen to your Ram because it automatically gets downclocked from 250MHz to 200 so you have 50Mhz room to OC. so 50xMultiplier.....which i think is 11 or somehting= 550MHz+1.8GHz=2.35 or something like that........im a bit sleepy atm.

ya I'm going to need some "step by step" "one on one" instruction to OC that Opty 148 in a few months... I'll come to TF every step of the way.
