I also gather the BD7II only has the 3/4 mem. setting at 133 and above. Rather supprised to find they have anything above 1/1 at or above 133. One of the things I am interested in is are their DRR333 mem setting (3/4 & 4/5) show at that the standard 133 buss settings or do you have to start doing some minor overclocker. I am interested in running an unoverclocked (or very minor CPU overclocking) but want the Mem bandwith. The BD7II at 133 with 3/4 would only be 7% above DRR333 and would be great for my uses for this box.
In case if you are wondering about mild overclocking. This box is for my wife and I to do video editing on. She who must obeyed does not understand unstable.
Thanks

Gary, if you don't plan to go over 133 fsb with your motherboard, then I'd recommend you buy the BD7-II Raid. It has slightly better memory scores than BG7 at 133 fsb with 3:4 enabled. Just make sure you have good memory and you shouldn't have any instability problems. Set your vcore to 5% and memory to 2.7 v to ensure complete stability at 133 fsb since BD7-II Raid does undervolt a bit.
If I want to use DDR400, which board should be the best: BG7 or DB7-II RAID?
Is the following settings what I am looking for: 150 FSB, 3/4 DRAM?
