Default Different OCZ Reaper 8500 problems

So I was finally able to boot into windows and all with my reapers.

They are 2x2 GB PC2-8500. Biggest problem was that to boot, the NB voltage had to be 1.57 or 1.61 to get it to boot. This was way too high so I dropped it back down to 1.45.

Currently I am running prime95 small FFTs with my E8500 at 4 GHz. I dropped the strapping of my ram to 333/800 and am only booting with the ram at 1012.

Ideally I want to stay with the strapping I have and just run the processor at 4.2 with Ram at 1066 (this would be a frequency of 444x9.5 = 4.2). This leaves my strapping at 333/800 but with the FSB set at 444, this allows my ram to hit 1066.

So it will post, just won't boot into windows. Any ideas on what I should change, or should I just actively cool my Northbridge somehow and crank my NB voltage to 1.6?

Hmm, well I did the performance calculator and I'm running the right performance. I will try again though.

tRFC is already over 50. Actually at 54.

Now if I get close to 1066 I get a corrupted boot.

Hmm, don't know what it is?

Did the bump, get into windows and I get a BSOD for memory.

Closing in on 4.2 GHz though.

You might try backing down your FSB to see how high the RAM can go by itself. Your culprit may be your processor. I can't get my E8400 above 3.8 stable. Make sure your RAM is up to the task then back it down, raise your FSB and retry the RAM strap.
Also ask around on the DFI thread:

Ehh, well at 4.1 I think I'm doing just fine.

This will be more than enough to run my engineering apps, and this is only until I upgrade the system to Nehalem this winter.

For this OC I think I'm happy and done!
