Anything over 220mhz on your motherboard is high and will produce a lot of heat from the northbridge. Also it depends on your memory speed rating. I would say you found the limit of the motherboard or memory. My mobo will do upto 230mhz but my memory will only do 203mhz @ cas2 and 212mhz @ cas 2.5.
