it doesn't lock the speed, but it runs at ratio lower than the HTT bus

good luck. if you can get a divider put in the bios then most likely you might get a better and more stable overclock.

at least it isnt as bad as my old system that had mismatched ram. everything should have been the same but since the timings were a bit off I couldnt game without crashing once the system got to around 700 mb used LOL. would drop to desktop with a memory could not be read error.

it would work fine with either stick. just not together hehe

Memory dividers can be set in the motherboard bios, providing it has the option. It is normally a ratio, eg. for a HTT=400, RAM=300 would be a 4:3 HTT:RAM ratio.

Look through your motherboard bios options and the manual to see if you can find anything like it.

wootedy woot woot if you get your HTT to 400...TAKE ME SOME PICTURES!
