Well thanks for your help trog and another sight which showed me which setting to use for getting the 1:1 timing. i got it to 3.8 ghz. From stock to 3.8 i got a 2000 score increase in 3d05
I tryed doing the bios flash, but it said that it wasnt compatible with the 64 bit edition. The one thing i did notice tho is that in my memory that the fsb:dram is 5:8 not 1:1, how do i change that. I was reading up on this a bit and it did say to have that value at 1:1 but i do not know how...
