rig is as follows
biostar tz68k+
i5 2500k currently at 4.5ghz +.100v vcore (will be stress testing this when I go to class today) cooled by a CM hyper 212
gtx 560 ti
antec 750w psu
and 4x4gb 1600 ripjaws 9-9-9-24
among other things, I use this pc for 3d modeling and sculpting, which does benefit from this much memory and I realize it doesn't do much for games. My question is, should I bother OC'ing the memory? Would 1600mhz bottleneck my system assuming I'll be overclocking the video card, and possibly pushing the i5 to 4.8 or 5.0? Does the fact that I'm running 16 gigs make any difference here? Sorry if I sound misinformed, I really don't know much about memory hence this post.
