I'm thinking if tightening my RAM timings...Should I do this to my "cheapo" brand ram
Yeah, I fell for the cheaper brand ram when I was building my computer and now I want to squeeze the most I can get out of it. It's just a generic peice of pc2700 ram. This is what the stock timings are...
2.5 - 3 - 3 - 7
I just changed one of the figures last night and haven't found any instability problems yet and I was running prime95 right now to test out my new CPU overclock. (166x13 if anyone is interested. 2500+ barton) My new figures as of last night are...
2 - 3 - 3 - 7
I'm wondering which ones I should try to change first and how I can get the best preformance from this stick. I'm guessing if I find instability, I can just give it a little more juice, but how much should I add? Or can I even do that? If things are going to be running hotter, would I need to buy a copper heatspreader (vantec)? thanks!
