noob oc'ing question, D805 and pc6400????

[bender6681]

Will pc6400 ram work for overclocking a Intel D805 to say 3.8 or 4.0 or should i buy slower memory?

You got two options, please verify this cause i have not used ddr2 yet.

But i think this applys to it also.

1. Buy Slow memory like ddr2 400 and buy the absolute TIGHTEST timgings and then loosen the timings to increase the clock speed.

2.Buy SUPER fast memory like ddr2 800-1000 then run it at drr2600 or 700 with reallllly tight timings.

Now Option 1 is cheaper if you on a budget. I choose option 1 for my build i got myself 2-2-2-5 pc3200 memory then put it at 2.5-2-2-5 and im running it at DDR476 with vdimm of 2.9v
