I think your HT link might be going too much over 1000 MHZ, and that's why it is crashing. Try to lower the HT multiplier.

Also, what is your RAM speed? If you are running at a frequency over your RAM's rated speed it could also cause crashing.

what are the temps? have you tried running orthos? once you are good and stable run some benches and show us the results vs before. The HT could be too high but your ram just may not like it that much faster. you could lower the memory multi, or give your ram a little more juice. Lots of things could get you some more but to start lower your ht to x4 or even x3 to take that completely out of the picture for now.

I just looked at the online manual and it looks like you can't. I don't even know how you changed the bus speed because it looks like you can't do that in the BIOS either.
