I just got this board - no problem reaching 300HTT as shown in my sig.

But I'd like to run at the following, which I had running well on my last board (DFI Ultra-D):

Current:
300x8 = 2400MHz
Memory Divider of 133 - Effective 200MHz or DDR400
2-2-2-5

Want:
278x9 = 2502MHz at a
Memory Divider of 183 - Effective 250MHz or DDR500
2.5-3-3-5

Problem is, every time I touch the RAM timings, I get into a no-boot situation, at which point I have to clear CMOS - which is heavily frustrating and time consuming. Even if I'm in the first situation above, and I RELAX the timings, I get no-boot. wtf??
 
I have a hard enough time running my ram in 1T. I fooled with this board a weekend or so ago and just set the ASUS AI overclocking utility @ 10% and walked away.
All i can say is make sure you have the newest BIOS and give your ram all the voltage it craves.
