I simply cannot get this board to boot above 325FSB- I know it sounds stupid but I just can't get it to do it. It is supposed to be able to take 1333 CPU's so it should be able to. I have an E2140 in it and regardless of multiplier cannot get it over the 325 number. So I rules out CPU not being able to handle it. The computer is fine at 325, with low voltages and all is good. Go above that and nothing works. I have tried everything I could think of- changed RAM speed, timings, to quite insanely slow speeds, I have increased voltages to silly heights, I have decreased voltages to silly lows, and yet still I have no fruits to bear from my labour. I'm stuck and I'm tired and annoyed so suggestions would be helpful.
System is as in specs but with an Asus P5K Premium and E2140. And yes I did update the BIOS.
I have never heard of an L2 E2140 having a FSB wall as low as 325 - at the present time I cannot believe that.
8x Multi standard btw
