I just bought a new pc and i am trying to figure out what OC i should do to utilize my components capabilities.
What i havent been able to figure out (after alot of reading ) is i bet very basic: everywhere i read its best to keep the Memory Ratio to 1:1.
What gets me confused is that some say C2D 6600 CPU clock at 266 x 2 = 533MHz DDR2 RAM for 1:1, others say CPU 266 x 4 = 1066MHz DDR2 RAM for 1:1. Obviously i misunderstood something there, i have no experience at all in this, and this propably is something that everyone knows the answer to except me :?
The components i have are:
M/B: ASUS P5W DH Deluxe
RAM: 2x1Gb Cellshock DDR2 800 4-4-4-12
CPU: C2D 6600
HD: WD 150Gb 10000Rpm
GPU: XFX 8800 GTX
PSU: Zalman 600W
CPU fan: Stock
Case: Antec 900, 2 front 120mm, 1 rear 120m, 1 top 200mm fan
My aim is to OC as much as needed to achieve 1:1 without buying extra cooling if thats possible.
So the queston is, do i have to get CPU clock from 266 to 400MHz in order to have 1:1 for the DDR2 800? I guess/hop not, but cant really clarify this myself so any advice will be very helpfull.
