seeking general advice/pointers/experience before starting out into a potential minefield on my own.

I would advice to start from something and when you stuck then back here and start asking questions ( maybe with some screenshots of your settings or something ). There is no one general guide how to set everything and considering how many users are playing with memory then I don't think you get many answers starting from too general question.
Don't mean me wrong but memory settings are wide topic and I just want you to save time.

Well, this is my first stable tiny o/c of ram *still trying to figure out this sabertooth*

CPU/NB volts will help you stabilize the IMC later on.

Mine's set for 1.35 volts right now to get this. YMMV of course. I'm also running just 2 sticks vs your 4 sticks.
It's harder to OC with 4 sticks vs 2.

Until I have the funds for replacement CPU and or memory, Im not likely to try and push very much.

I really have no need to push my ram/cpu all that far, as all I am using this system for is three online courses, finishing up my associates degree, network admin track.

Just something to do when I have some time to myself after getting work done.

Playing is the best way to learn!

Just keep the NB above 2000Mhz. Anything lower and you begin to bottleneck the RAM.
