    Have you increased your voltages at all? If not it might be worth trying. As for RAM timings try setting them to pretty relaxed settings (high numbers for most stuff since it's time we're dealing with) and try overclocking, then try raising the timings again.

    Turn off your memory test in bios.

    Those boards for some reason fsck up with ram sometimes. You might want to RMA it.
