Canterwoods do NOT have those kinds of memory dividers:)

I see 1/1, 4/5, 3/4 and 2/3 divisors :)

Wrong again :)

The dividers are 1:1, 5:4, 3:2

There are no async step-up dividers meaning 2:3, 3:4, etc

I have the following spec -

P4C 2.4
GA 8IPE1000 Pro
2 X 256 PC3200 Kingston
Thermaltake volcano 7+

I have raised the fsb to 260 giving me 3.1Ghz at 35deg under load, everything else at default. PC wont boot if I go any higher.

Is it better to stay at this speed with memory at 1:1 or go higher and drop the memory back ? My bios doesnt have ratio dividers it has the FSB and the memory bus speed plus a seperate option for the AGP/PCI bus...

Not sure where to go next - any help appreciated !

1/1 is the way to go for the quickness.

5/4, 4/3 or 3/2 for the total clockage in MHZ.

yer choice.

Isn't it right that p 4 systems handle async memory timings well as compared to poor for AMD systems. I would think from the benchmarks i've seen that the p4 would be significantly faster at asynchronous times because the memory is running as fast as it would be in many instances just with a higher fsb. I know from experience that AMD systems aren't good with async memory though.
