Once I have time to dedicate to it though, I wil invest in something better (Hey maybe I will be ale to a classy in the 200 range by then )
Its cheap, but aside from the classy, its the best one for getting past 222BCLK (if its revision 1.6 like it was supposed to be). The 1.6 has the PCIe mod so all you have to do is change PCIe and you can boot over 230BCLK.

And the difference for 1600 to 2000 ram is only $30 or so now.

I got 4.2HT stable with ram at 2000Mhz 9-9-9-27 stable first try. Temps are loading at 83C with Linx. Working on higher speed and lower voltage. Only the ram doesnt want to go as high as 2050.
