Hey guys, I'm sorry if my answer lies within these forums already, but the search feature doesn't seem to work for me.
I just got a p4 3.2c and an ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe. I also have a nice watercooling system, so I'd like to overclock my cpu. Although I have never oc'ed before I think I am ready to start, I read these forums quite often at work, so I am learning quite a bit. My mobo says it supports up to ddr400 ram, now if I overclock I would be able to run memory faster than ddr400 correct? If I oc my cpu to 3.6 or maybe 3.8 if I can, what speed of memory would I want to get? There must be some formula to calculate this. If you could give me some suggestions, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to have a gig of dual channel, and a quality brand. I'm willing to dish out about 350 on my memory, possibly a little more. Thanks in advance for any help.
