Give us bigger pictures. Reading that little dinky font at 1280x1024 is quite a challenge...

EDIT: But after much squinting, I could make it out.

I would say try to get that CAS latency down a little bit.

lance,
yes my ram is stable at that speed.
i jsut ran memtest at 100% usage for 3.5 hours no errors.
crazed,
to change latency i would have to re flash the updated bios to my mobo, the version i use does not have adjustment available. but that version is not quite as good as my current for ocing.
i had to really juice the cpu to get 2.8
i don't like that. but, in any event...what kind of difference in performance are we talking about if i could?

i don't really see there is much you can do without getting the clockspeed any higher.
