I have a A7N8X Mobo revision 1002A and I 'm curious If I flash the biod to
1.07 will the 400 FSB be stable . I've read that it won't be .
 
the only thing keeping an A7N8X Unstable at 400fsb is the memory. I have 3
of these boards all doing 400fsb netting me 2.3ghz stable on Corsair with a
2500x-mp chips overclocked from 1.8ghz. You might want to look into that.
 
If I am running a matched set of 1gig Patriot PC3200 memory will that keep
it unstable? How do I jack up the FSB? Sorry, not trying to take over posts,
just had the same question. Thanks much.

There are many reasons why you may not be able to hit 200MHz, but the major
one is whether your motherboard is Rev2.0 or not.

I would bet that you have a Rev 1.3 or even earlier, judging from your BIOS
version.

However, 1002a is a pretty old BIOS now, and I doubt anybody would recommend
it. I think the latest will be your best bet (be sure to check your board
version), oh, that and running at 190-195MHz rather than 200.
