I got a question. I am getting a 3500 venice to overclock. Currently I have 2 512 PC3200 sticks that I was going to put in it. Will I still be able to overclock ok if I put another 2 sticks in for 2gb total.

It's a crapshoot. Running 4 sticks of RAM puts a lot of stress on the memory controller, and I've seen cases where all overclocking ability was lost--even with the RAM on a divider. It's much better to get a 2x1GB kit if you want to use 2 GB of memory and overclock.Mattster2k5 said:

4 sticks of ram is pretty bad idea since it will be slower takes more power and much much less ocing them. youd have to change ratio for ram:cpu so you can run those ram at stock. 4 sticks ram dont oc especially when they are pc3200 cheapo ram
