Hello
im trying to overclock my ram as much as possible.. and anderstand the of general things with ram oc and have tried alot of different ram oc's. but i have some questions.
My ram comes With the timings 9-9-9-24-2T 1600mhz @ 1.5v
The ram also have a Corsair Dominator Airflow cooler above them to keep them nice and cool
tried alot of other settings incl 1800,1866,,2133 all with different timing and found the most stable are 1866 10-10-10-30-2T @ 1.65v i got these timings from looking at The sport XT's pdf http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/memory-ballistix-sport
And thougt maybe its the same chips just different heatspreader so maybe i can clock after those speeds? and sure enough everythings rock solid.. the 1.65 is just for safety measure..
but i noticed that when i increase the MHz my mb bios seems to self adjust all kinds of other timings with it like the Row refresh cycle time (tRFC) goes from 128 stock to 150 at 1866.. and something called ?? Refresh interval goes from 6250 to 7280. Theres some others but i cant remember them right now.. and its probably ok it does so..
All i wanted to check was if you guys would aprove of the overclock? and do you think im getting extra performance by doing so? i cant really decide? havent seen any direct performance increase
Also what benchmark is best for checking memory performance?
