Getting 1066 DDR2 on GA-M720 US3

[sejoberbo]

I'm an owner of Gigabyte GA-M720 US3, and I have 2 stciks of 2GB 1066 G-SKill ram [exact: F2-8500CL5S-2GBPK (2Gx1) / F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK (2Gx2) ] and it's running at 800 mhz. Since this is very well known problem on AMD builds, I know i need to overclock the ram to get it working on 1066. I managed to boot with 1066 with this latencies and ram at 2.1v and manualy set to 533mhz. But I get a BSOD very soon so I need your advice (or maybe from someeones expirience from thi mobo and ram) how to set up this properly.

Here is CPU-z pic of my settings that worked for getting 1066 but crashing with BSOD all the time:



My config is :

AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE
XFX Radeon 4870 512mb
GA-M720 US3
4GB DDR2 G-Skill 8500
Silverstone Strider 500w PSU
Cooler Master CM 690 case
Cooler Master v8 fan
