    x6800 / xms2 8500 / asus p5n32

    Hi Guys,
    I have a core 2 duo extreme x6800, 2gb corsair xms 2 8500+ 1066 and an asus p5n32 sli deluxe.
    Im concerned that im not getting the most out of my components, everything in the bios seems to be on auto, and my memory is running at 800mhz, shouldnt it be 1066? or am i limited by my board?
    any advice on this would be a big help, and any other suggestions for memory and cpu settings tweaks would really be appreciated!
    Cheers in advance,
    Nick

    Before clunk arrives with his bitch slap for the RAM question.. You need to adjust the RAM speed yourself as 1066mhz ram isn't offically recognised.

    You could probably overclock that PC a fair bit.. check out clunks overclocking guide for help

    Thanks for the reply, Yeah I figured that but when I took a look in the bios and put it to manually, pressing enter on 800mhz didnt do anything, I wasnt given the option to change :S
