I've got me one these boards a week ago with a A64 3200+ 939 pin 90nm, (2) 512MB PQI Turbo PC4000 (500Mhz) memory and started it off at 260 Mhz FSB and 4x Hypertransport Multiplier. I can not get Prime 95 Torture Test to run without errors. I've adjusted Cpu & Memory voltage in all configuration, then at default voltage with 250Mhz FSB, 8X CPU Multiplier that way the memory is running in its rated speed of 500 Mhz as well as the cpu rate speed of 2.0 Ghz. What the hell gives.

I just want to pass along some information from PQI about the MSI K8N Neo4 and its ability to do DDR500 clock. Is there anyone here who can reach 250Mhz or higher FSB and memory speed.

im over 270fsb with 2.5-3-3-10-T on a 3200+ and 3200ddr.

btw, kindest, what HTT mult are you at? 3x?
Also, what are your sandra scores, im just curious because i have the same ram as you ... mine is:

Just want something to compare against, as we have almost the exact same setup, with the exception of processor (i have 3000) and hard drive (i have wd raptor 74 gb)
Also, what are your 3dmark scores?
(or are you even doing benchmarks?)
Thanks again

not so sure, but your scores kinda ream mine .. what was her HTT multiplier?

oh, so you're over the 1000 mhz HTT speed? is it prime stable? i've been kinda reluctant to go any higher, but then again i work a lot and dont get much time to play with it.
