Dear friends..
 
Please post your bios settings for overclocked Intel I7 920 and DDR3 memory architecture over here so we all can follow each others steps for overclocking and trouble shooting purposes.  It is much easier to have all results posted in one place for comparison reasons.  Please only post stable and working overclocks.  Thanks a million. 
 
Looking forward in hearing from you all.

    I can certinley understand what your wanting, but I hope you realize a posted template even if it is stable on the system it was on, may not be stable on yours, as every system and chip is difrent, with that being said, here are some templates at various speeds for you
     
    Here is a template to test the 2:10 RAM divider at a QPi of 134 which is where the 1333MHz RAM rating is at specified timings:

    *****************************************************************

    !!!!!!!!!  Please do NOT use these settings as gospel!  I used the information and strategy above to get these overclocks on my board, chip and RAM.  This does not mean they will work on yours exactly as they are BUT the strategies I outlined above WILL work on your machine.  It takes time, patience and maybe a little money for another processor to overclock the i7.
