TO THE FORUMS

Read the OC'ing Guide which should make everything clear to you. Since there is way to much detail to go into just to make it in one post.

You need to run your ram at a 5/6 divider or 333 DRAM clock. Raise your HTT. Your ram will overclock with it. If you are going for a mild cpu overclock then leave your ram at 1:1 or 400 DRAM clock. You will only go so far with 1:1, usually around 230MHz with that ram.

Run cpu-z and give the MHz for the ram at the highest HTT and a 5/6 divider. Your ram is rated at 200MHz so it should be higher then that.
