Have sold my Neo4 and all my A64 stuff as I gave up on the high FSB bug.
OK I ordered a Venice 3500+ from Newegg. Now I have to order a DFI and a X850... hope I will not endup with the same sort of problems I had with my first A64 experience.

A test run to push the FSB as high as possible... I got 7 errors in test #6 of Memtest1.55. Didn't let it do a 2nd loop to see if they were real... The "Read" bandwidth is not too good.... Need a San Diego with 1 Meg cache to see if it's that...
Edit: Changing to 2.5-3-15-3, Memtest passes without error...

Ok just got the 3200+ (CBBLE 0512DPAW) Venice in today, man newegg was fast. Got the Neo4 posting and booting at 270x10 HTx3 like it is no big thing. All issues that the Winnie had are now gone. It just needs a alittle more vcore around 1.55v to be stable at that high a fsb. Haven't found the total max yet but i think i can squeeze some more out of it. This is like a night and day difference from the 0451 CBBID Winnie. I'll run some more tests but i'm sure i can get a 300fsb out of it easy.
Core : Venice (90 nm) / Revision : DH-E3 ADA3000DAA4BP LBBLE 0522DPEW Z714886F50630 The owner before me of that CPU says its able to reach 2.8GHz on water and vcore 1.7v
