I am running Vista 64 bits with 2 pairs of TWIN2X4096-6400C5 8GB on my new M/B Asus P5Q Pro with Q9300. I want to know what is the optimum setting that I can OC the Ram. Currently CPU is running at 3GHz 7.5X400 with no changes on the Bios setting excpet increasing the FSB from 333 to 400Mhz. Your help is greatly appreciated.:biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted August 26, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 26, 2009 Set the memory frequency to DDR667 and see where it tops out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted August 27, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 27, 2009 NP and I have posted this before about using two sets or 4 modules you can use the Voltage settings suggested here as well. With 4 modules I would suggest setting the memory frequency at DDR667 and set the memory Voltage to 2.1 Volts and set the NB/MCH/SPP Voltage to +.2 Volts as well and test the system with http://www.memtest.org. In addition, with some MB's (Mostly ASUS) you have to disable legacy USB in the bios when running any memory test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
