    actually no .. its not stable at all.
    I have the RAM set to 1066 (the speed its meant to be going) v1.35

    Set everything back to default in bio.... no BSOD yet

    Should be an option in the bios to run in sync mode, the speed of your cpu will outweigh any performance hit from slower ram....

    Look here for more info, should help you out.
