Just installed some OCZ AMD Black Edition 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model OCZ3BE1600C8LV4GK yesterday. I set correct timings in my bios, increased HT link speed to 2400 + changed my CPU-NB VDD VOLTAGE to 1.25.
Got my 955be running smoothly at 3.8ghz using only multiplier + 1.43 voltage.
Next i want to fiddle with the ram, but seeing as how I'm an OC noob (this is my first project) I don't know exactly where to start. Lots of questions:
•What voltage do I eventually need to tweak?
•What's a safe voltage range?
•How much OC should i put onto my ram?
•Should i raise any other MoBo values to allow this new OCd ram to not bottleneck on my MoBo somewhere?
 
Tagging system info on (added to sig after i made the thread, looks like it doesn't update older posts w/sigs):
