    my new msi pm8m3-v has no freq/voltage controls in bios, and the fsb multiplier cannot be raised. so now what? looks like i can only over clock the memory?
    i understand some about ocing the memory but this new bios has too many options.
    should i use a 4 bank interleave? i have 2 sticks of pc3200u
    what other mem settings should i use?
    the good news is i can take this same ram down to a cas of 2 on this mobo, where my old one would only got to 3.
