right im all quite new to this memory tweakin, i understand changing the mem timings and now run mine at 2.0 2-2-5-4 not sure what Voltage that is at

but i dont understand the mem ratio stuff and how do u know what mhz the mem is at??

im using the asus ai to oc the cpu and setting the mem up my self atm

my pc is running well sweet atm but im wondering the most is i can push out of it
 
Memory speed ratio is 2 digits. it'll be like 1:1, 3:2, 5:4, etc.

At a ratio of 5:4, you divide your fsb by 5, then multiply it by 4 and you'll have the speed of the ram. A 250mhz fsb divided by 5 is 50, multiply that by 4, and your ram is running at 200mhz.
 
With that particular Asus mobo though the cpu:mem ratio is not shown. It actually lets you pick from 4 memory speeds. So no need to worry about the ratio
