i got a e6300 sitting under a tuniq tower The cpu is at 1333fsb (2.33 ghz). Therefore, i got 800mhz ram running at 667mhz 4-4-4-12.. The ram is rated at 800mhz @ 4-4-4-12.. Does anyone know what i should tighten the ram timings manualy to at 667??

WHY? Push the FSB up to 1600MHz, should be able to do it no problem, and then the RAM will be at 800MHz, at it's rated timings :D

If you really don't want the EXTRA FREE performance, you might try these, with a memtest run after each successful attampt:
4-4-4-8 T2 duh
4-4-3-8 T2 OK
4-3-4-8 T2 and...
3-4-4-8 T2 good
3-4-3-8 T2 better
3-3-4-8 T2 best
3-3-3-8 T2 amazing!
You may have to raise your voltage to achieve these timings, most RAM is totally safe up to 2.1V.
If you get this far, I'd call it quits...but I doubt you'll get this far.

yah i want to push to 1600fsb. but the motherboard is rated at 1333mhz. and if i push more the 1333mhz i think i will slowly kill my northbridge as it runs hot enough. i plan to push 1500+ when i find a northbridge cooling solution. I am completly loss on finding a fan or whole new cooling solution for this NB.

Thanks for the timings i am gonna try them out after school today
