After some adjusting and testing we were able to run SiSoft Sandra CPU  and Memory benchmarks and Pifast benchmark smoothly when the CPU was  running at 3917MHz. We raised the FSB one more step and managed to run  succesfully SuperPi benchmark while CPU was running at 3998MHz. The  result was 39 seconds. Test setup: P4 2,8GHz, Modified Asus P4T533-C, Samsung PC800 RDRAM, PNY  GeForce 4 MX440 and Windows XP OS. Check out the pictures. --------------090602010909000705010009--
