How would I go about to squeeze 66 mhz or so out of a set of ddr2?

What settings need to be changed in bios to make it happen?

Kingston HyperX pc8000 dual channel ( 2 x 1 GB )
speed is @ 800 Mhz
timing = 5-5-5-15@stock volts
mobo Ga-x48-ds4/q6600 stock

I want to get the ram up to 1066 speeds, which it is rated for 1000 mhz, but it registers as 800 atm.

For what reason? You'll find very little difference in anything from 800 to 1066

Sorry...but your post is still vague. 2.3 vDimm should irradicate any issues...but that RAM should run 1066np..your cooling/vCore has more to do with it...Don't fret though.... 1000/1066 won't make any noticacable difference.:biggrin:

You should NEVER ever have to run memory at 2.3v EVER.

I don't even recommend 2.2v .. 2.1v is about as high as I would recommend.
