Overclocking Corsair

Mindflux0 · Aug 13, 2006

I have a pair of cmx1024-3200 Corsairs and I'm trying to run them at 225 right now. It occured to me however that there aren't any temp sensors or anything on the ram, how can I tell if I'm going to burn them out? I s'pose I'll get errors first...Basically, is it a bad idea to OC the **** out of my ram or is it reasonably safe so long as I don't do something stupid?

225 is ambitious for those sticks. You can just touch them to see if they are warm, if so add a fan just above, blowing on them.

You might do it with XMS, but not CMX.
