So I didn't plan on overclocking my hackintosh... Yeah that worked out well

Anyways, I just got the cheapest 4gb (2x2gb) I could on newegg. It was 4gb of Geil DDR2 800 (5,4,4,14 spd, though my badaxe 2 sets it at 5,5,5,18 at default)
Coming from my 680i I was completely stumped by these "straps" and memory speeds. Then I stumbled upon Geil's site explaining the badaxe2's strap setup with a chart giving the memory ratio to any given fsb/memory speed setting! It was at this point I realized why I hit a brick wall at 370 for the FSB... My ram was at 1:1, @ 5,4,4,14, (2.0v). That's right, budget ram, 2gb sticks, DDR2 800 at DDR2 1480 (unless my math is wrong, which is totally possible considering the day I've had) Anyhow, I ended up going to a 4:3 ratio to get my FSB up to 384 (I don't have the CPU cooling to go much higher stable, GeminII was the cheapest, available heatsink that fit in my case. I miss my 120 extreme!) But I was shocked at the performance of this ram. It blew my Firestix out of the water, I think I hit 1100 mhz at stock timings and 2.2v with those (2x1gb)

And for those of you in the know... my geekbench score is just over 6500 now. Hit 6700 @ 3.55ghz. (and the mac pro we've got at work, 2 dual core xenons @ 2.66ghz w/5gb FBDIMMS... that got a score of 4800. Proof that a $1000 hack can destroy a $3500 Apple. And it translates into real world performance too. We transfer raw files from our Canon 1DS MkIIIs into 16bit .tifs. Takes exactly 10 seconds per image on the mac pro, 30 seconds on the macbook pro, and 4 seconds on my hack pro. Same images, same settings!)
