I just bought the Gskill trident X 16gbs 2133 pc 17000 ddr3 ram and i am jsut wondering what is a safe OC for this ram? voltage and timings as well as any other settings.
 
2400 9-11-11, 10-11-11 or 10-12-12 1.55-1.65V will be about max on newer IC. These modules can work without issues at 1.7V or some more but overclocking won't improve much so there is no point to set high voltage.
 
okay so which one of the 3 timings is fastest? Also whats the safest voltage for the ram? anmd will there be any performace gain.
 
Depends on the kit they're not all created equal. I would try with the 2400 10-12-12 at 1.65v and see if it boots then if it does test it for stability
 
Maybe a bit but not something you will likely notice.
