I always have 1:1 ratio. My system won't post anything else.

I dropped my multi to 8 and 7 but fsb wall seems the same. My north bridge is also water cooled.

I haven't tried upping the pcie frq. yet, will do that once i get my ocz 700W (had antec tp3 650 which blew due to water leakage from my gpu water block, arghhhh..). I will post results once I get the psu up and installed.
That's good, but the southbridge on the DS3L's get very hot.. so don't neglect cooling that, if possible. the fact that you can't get a higher FSB with the lower multi makes me question the RAM. I would still try taking out 2 DIMM's, and running Memtest 86+... as Biff said, your RAM is likely holding you back.
