P7N SLI FI not posting after 1600mhz fsb

Question

I can get stable at 1500fsb, 800mem on a c2d e6300.  But when I reach 1600 it won't post.  Any help would be appreciated.  My system specs are:
E6300
Corsair DDR2 XMS 800mhz 4 4 4 12 2t, 2.1v
OCZ Gamestream 700w PS
Nvidia gtx260

Answer 1

It all depends on which E6300 you have and did you ever think about the fact your cpu doesnt do a FSB of 1600??
If you have the 2.8GHz version, its rated @1066MHz fsb, with 10.5 multiplier, so when you do 1600Mhz, its gonna be 10.5*400=4.2GHz!!
Even for a 45nm C2D thats a lot.
You say you can do 1500MHz, so thats 10.5*375=3.94GHz already, so even if you get it done, you'll hardly notice the difference.
So its prob not the board but the cpu that has reached its limit.
Just because some dude in the world gets it done, doesnt mean you can do it too you know.
Even if you have the 1.86GHz version, the 65nm Conroe C2D, it also can be you reached the limit of the cpu, cause then it would be 7*400=2800Mhz
and that would be a 1GHz overclock on a budget cpu.
I know it can bedone, but I havent seen many get there without troubles and a lot of testing and trying.
But hey, if you dont have the patience, overclocking isnt your thing, cause you need a lot of patience and time.
It not just pressing the numbers and presto, it works.
Oh and 1 more thing, its a USER to USER forum, so it takes time for people to answer, cause the most here have a normal dayjob/life and do this on the side.
So no-one here works for MSI or has anything to do with MSI, besides running this forum.
Also MSI personell/staff/techs dont ever post here, they seldom do, so ranting about customerservice and badboards is useless here, cause MSI will never read it.
