I oc'd my E6600/Badaxe2 board to 3.0 ghz/FSB speed of 334 mhz, running DDR2 800 RAM which I underclocked to 667 to get a 2:1 or essentially a 1:1 ratio. Everything showed up ok in BIOS and all was running well, idle temps were in the mid 40's though, kinda high even with an AC Freezer7 cooler. However when I checked the CPUID memory tab it was showing my DRAM frequency as being about 415 mhz with a 5:4 ratio , not the 1:1, 334 mhz it should have been.
Was it because I left the Reference Frequency in the memory menu to "Default"? Should that be set to match the Host Frequency value I set in the Processor menu? I'm using 3 gigs of RAM, 2@1gig and 2@512mb if that makes a difference.
Thanks for any help/suggestions. This seems to be about the best setup for my system as far as being able to use a 1:1 ratio. I'd like for it to be able to work!
