Can anyone give me some tips on overclocking 6GB of ram
I can't figure out if I should run at a higher MHz with higher timings or try for 1800 or 2000 MHz with 9-9-9-24 or loose timings.
I own 6GB Corsair Dominator TR3X6G1600C7D

I'm using OC profile 4.2GHz W/O HyperThreading profile but I switched HT Tech option to Enabled and it's stable for me
Right now all ram options are set AUTO so I got 1600MHz 9-9-9-24-1T
Heres my current bios settings
Ram performance is really important as I do 24/7 F@H Bigadv 24/7
I'm just not sure the direction I should go.
Temps look really good at 4.2GHz for me even 24/7 in summertime
CPU at 63C and 4 cores flux between high 70's C
Thanks for any help
