I have question concerning ram, and overclocking a 8350 to 4.5- 4.6g. I currently have this ram - Corsair Vengeance [2 x 4GB] 1600MHz ram.
I plan on using a Asus Crosshair Formula-Z or a Asus Sabertooth R.20 990FX with this cpu. Prices took a jump upward recently, so I will wait until the new year for prices to go down.
Based on this set-up, and using the fsb to overclock, should I go with higher clocked ram ? I was thinking of using ram rated at 1866MHz, and then under clock it to 1600MHz before overclocking the cpu using the fsb.
