i am currently running an evga 680i sli motherboard, an c2d e6600, and 2 gigs of this xms ram to be exact TWIN2X2048-6400C4
ok here are my queestions:
1. when i try to increase my fsb under the option "linked" it increases the speed of the ram as well. should i leave the setting at "unlinked" and so that the ram remains at 800mhz and only increase the fsb, or leave it linked?

2. when i enable sli ready memory i get a few oc percentage options and finaly the max. the only thing ive noticed changed are the ram timings which i can easily do myself, it also locks the fsb to 1066 so i cant change it. what exactly does sli ready memory do and what should i do?

3.i noticed on the nvidia website that this board runs at 1333 fsb (which it does not unless i overclock) compared to 1066 and sli ready memory (which i have) runs at 1200mhz, what gives?

heres the link: http://www.nvidia.com/page/nforce_600i_tech_specs.html

EPP/SLI is for people who wants extra perf without tinkering in the bios.

You can do it yourself and I suggest you do disable SLI/EPP if you know what you are doing!
