Re: need help with my EP45C-UD3R several problems
As stated above the 1333mhz memory speed isnt likely to happen.
7 cas timings are a bit extreme for ddr2 memory at the speed its supposed to run at 5 timings.
Also as above just oclking the memory while cpu is at stock isnt going to inc performance much.
Since you have the standard cpu cooler ,lets assume your cpu will run 10C hotter at full load.
Try something like this which isnt a huge stretch for the cpu and should give you a good idea on the memory.

If it seems to work ok ,you could try the 2:66D multiplier to get the memory up to 1066 mhz.
I suggested using 2.14 for the memory to account for possible volt drop when running.
If it doesnt boot up/run properly at those settings try "one thing" at a time.
Small increses in cpu v,perhaps try it with llc enabled.If no joy there move down to the memory enter the main and advanced timings(if you have found out what they are) in the memory bios section.
Try 6-6-6-18 even just to see.7 settings shouldnt be needed even for testing.
mchv work it up a little each time.
Save your working bios setting before you do anything so you can load it again if you need to (F12+F11 keys).
With a 400mhz cpu/fsb ref frequency your fsb will be running at 1600mhz, so you wont have to worry about your memory matching that frequency (it wont).
As stated above the 1333mhz memory speed isnt likely to happen.
