overclocking SUCKS get only 210 mhz - I MEAN COME ON!!!

I tried for 2 days to overclock my latest 8rda6+
The merlin bios AND L12 mod gave me nothing ...

Both bios crash at anything over 210fsb!
The NTUNE program says it is stable to 225 mhz but you run PRIME95 and it carshed in side 1 minute

I use 1x OCZ 256mb ddr pc 3700
With 2.9 volts and low multiplier 6 (max 1400 mhz from my XP2000+ cpu)

The ram might be dodgy as well but I tried 2 similar stick seperately and both were within 3-5mhz fsb the same

I thing these EPOX boards can not overclock.

I used all the retail heatsinks and more and put a huge fan on the south bridge and replaced the north beidge heatsink compound all to get only 210 mhz - I MEAN COME ON!!!
