| Check out Xtremesystems.org forums and search for your motherboard asrock 775 *vsta , it needs some tweaks and settings to get running , but once it goes well, over 300+ FSB is possible. I only have experience with S775 P4 on the VSTA http://www.madshrimps.be/vbulletin/s...hlight=%2Avsta

| Don't you have to set memory to 266 rather than 333 even though you are using PC5300?

| no i did set the memory to 266 since tweaking a bit in the bios , its going better already , but it seems my vcore is really unstable
