memory higer than bus speed

Hmm.. I'm sorry I'm not familiar with this motherboard however you should look in your bios for something like "Advanced Settings or Features" and if/when you find it you should look for something that allows you to set your RAM frequency in MHz or for an option that allows you to set something called "FSB:RAM ratio or divider".

I'm not sure I understood your first question/post.
If you were asking how to lower your memory frequency then that's what I was already talking about in my previous posts.
If, on the other hand, you were asking if it's ok to lower your memory frequency to that of your cpu then you should know that AMD systems get more performance when memory timings (CAS, RAS etc...) are tighter (meaning their numbers are smaller) than when you increase memory frequency. So I'd say you should lower your memory speed/frequency to match your cpu's as this will allow you to tighten memory timings further more (from something like 3-3-3-8 to 2.5-3-3-6 for example).
