Which is better:
At 1:1 ratio, I can't get but about 225 on my fsb. I'm using geil value ram PC3200 2x512 right now. Its running stock timings.
I can change my ration to 3:2 or 320mhz and I've got me bus up to 235 to far. CPU temp is around 38c at idle. Whats better, keeping the 1:1 ratio and lower fsb, or go 320 or maybe even 266 and having a faster fsb? Also, my memory timings, if I raise the timings to make the memory more stable, i know it will run a lil slower, but if it gets me faster fsb setting, should i do it? So many options here, but I don't know which way to go. I'm a newb at the board and chip, plz give me a little advice. And this memory has got to do for now. Thanks guys/gals
