I just made an order online for some Corsair PC3500 C2 memory pieces so I can get rid of my 180FSB limitation. Hopefully I will be able to get around 210-220FSB with these.
One note about the 8DRA+, I tested it out last night and unless you physically mod the chip in some way, the max multiplier you can obtain without moding is 12.5x Tried 13x and the MB just went dormant for a few seconds and came back with 100FSB @ stock multiplyer. The board did NOT reset the BIOS, only put the chip in "safe mode" I adjusted the multiplier back down to 12.5x and it booted just fine @ 2250 once again.
