Help me get past my wall. Strange.

(I am reposting this because somehow it got deleted, searched high and low, admins please delete old if necessary)

 

Here is my hardware:

DFI Lanparty SLI-D ( NF4LD406 bios)

OCZ 3200 Platinum 2X1GB OCZ4002048ELDCPE-K in dual channel (yellow slots)

Opty 165

XfX Geforce 7600GT

 

My issue:

Without much tweeking I can get my opty @ 2700Mhz (9*300) (RAM divided @ 150 Mhz).

When I underclock the CPU I can get the RAM up to around 220Mhz on 1:1 (stable with memtest)

However when I go to overclock I can't get past 270 x 9 with a 2/3 divider which puts the ram at ~173Mhz .

It boots all the way to before it says BOOT FROM CD.... then it crashesreboots.

 

I figure i should be able to get the FSB up so my RAM is at least 200. I have tried all sorts of setting with no luck.

 

Here is my current A64info and voltages:

timings set to 2.5-3-3-5, or 3-4-4-8, and DDR400 shouldn't be a problem.

 

And Tref to 3120 cycles, or 200Mhz 15.6us.

No such luck. I did manage to squeeze a few more MHz of FSB though.

It's got to be something stupid. Here are my current settings.

Update..

I changed my CPU VID startup to 1.52, CPU VID 1.52 , and Special to Auto and I am now hitting 9*275 with 3/4 Mem divisor (205Mhz)

and can now boot.

I also changed my RAM to timings to 2.50-3-3-5 (before it was 3-4-4-8)
