    right i belive this can do more but my mem cannot.

    how do i use dividers so that i can have the mem as close to 250 and the cpu up to 2.8ghz or more?

    what speed of memory do you have just now ?
    drop it down to 333 or even 266 in the bios thatll eliminate the mem holding back your oc

    im running 250x10 = 2.6ghz 1:1

    i tried 333 (5:6) and 250 with x10 multiplier and the cpu was reading 2.1ghz and the mem was at 216mhz..... which dosnt make any sense
