Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 13, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 13, 2008 That is normal because of the CPU multiplier, you can over clock the CPU to get the memory frequency up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaGooN Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 so is that all that i need to do? because i got this app called AMD Overdrive and it says that it auto configures it for you or something like. so if i was to up the multi 13x to say 15x that will increase the mem Hz? but then dont i have to config the voltage to.. id like to get the best out of this build but not over do it.. any advice would be great, thanks! also what is the timings for 4GB of that ram? says 5.5.5.18?
