I set the cpu back to 9x and set the memory to 2.5. This should put your memory up closer to 1000. When you lower the multiplier and raise the fsb like that you are going to cause a lot of undue heat on your northbridge. You dont HAVE to run 1:1 but in some cases it helps, with newer memory and higher multis its just as good to run your memory at 4:5 which is usually what the motherboard will set it at by auto.
