clamchowder Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I have an i7 920 C0 and the Classified board. What memory do you recommend for the board? I do intend to OC the CPU as high as possible to get the most juice out of it. Should I get the larger 12GB but slower CAS8 and the PC12800 speed or should I get the smaller 6GB but faster CAS7 and the PC16000 so that I may OC the CPU to the max?

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted August 19, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 19, 2009 If you are going to over clock the system then I would suggest only using one set of CMG6GX3M3A1866C7 or CMG6GX3M3A2000C8 for best poerformance and if you want 12 Gig then I would suggest using HX3X12G1600C9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clamchowder Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 Would I be able to OC the CPU to 4.0Ghz using 12GB HX3X12G1600C9? I saw someone's signiture that he was able to OC his system well past 4.0Ghz using Crucial XM 12GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted August 19, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 19, 2009 If you over clock the CPU with all 6 slots filled you would more then likely have to lower the memory frequency but yo are welcome to try what ever you like.
