Hello,
I got some 1600 cl 11 ram at 1.5v that i wants to oc to around 1600 cl9.
I have a i3 4330 and a gb board with the new bluish bios.
Got memtest on a usb ready.
I found the first 4 latency, and switched them to 9-9-9-24. But what do i do with the rest?
and how much voltage should i increase per try?
I dont care if the ram dies earlier (gives me a reason to swap them), but will it reduce the life span of the cpu? And haswell should do fine up to 1.65v right?

These are ball park figures. Play within the neighborhood of these numbers. I always leave command rate at 1t some like to change it to 2t when OCing. Numbers I dont have listed, I usually leave on auto
Try cl9 trcd 9 trp 9 tras 24 trfc 60 cr 1

I told my friend to get the cheapest 1600mhz ram out there, forgot to mention the latency... So he got the cl11 instead of the cl 9 which was 5$ more expensive..
