well i have an Abit so i can change the mult from the bios with soft menu but i don't think you can do that with your mobo so look in the manual you probibly just have to chance some jumpers. just up it by .5 at a time and check to see if it's stable then do it again. you might have to up the voltage after a while just make sure not to go too high and keep an eye on the temps.

thats why you should had gotten an Asus a7vn8x del :) .. my 2500+ is cruising at an altitude of 11.5x206 - 2369mhz load 44c with no turbulence.. but i would lean more towards it being your ram. but still any o/c is a good o/c if you ask me..
