Default p4 overclocking

i know the number of p4 users is small here but i have a strange problem and wonderd if anyone else has seen this.

i have a p4 2.53 c1 stepping running at 3153ghz. i just installed some xms 3500 cl2 memory (had samsung 3200 cl2.5 before )and increased the fsb from 166 to 170 giving me 3230ghz. i ran sandra cpu benchmark before and after and the benchmark was the same. the strange thing is it was only 8196 mips. when i first setup this system up it was running faster at 9011mips.

i have lowerd the core volts to 1.52 and the system is running fine with no lockups. on my old benchmark i would have had the volts at 1.5v or higher. could this be the problem ?
