My RAM should arrive today and I want to ask should I underclock it?
I have followed the guide on how to overclock Core 2 Duo processors (The sticky in the processor forum I think) and part of the setup is to set RAM and CPU to a 1:1 ratio, I don't really understand it but that would mean when I install the new RAM then surely it would become overclocked right away (as my E6600 is overclocked about 25%).
So should I set everything to default then install the RAM, then overclock it once everything is fine, or should I install it right away and it'll be fine? Surely if I'm overclocking it anyway it won't make a difference if it's clocked up on install?
Bare in my I'm removing my old RAM so it is the new RAM alone.
DS3 965P
E6600
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AA804)
Note that the RAM is not quite compatible either, it has a slightly higher voltage then the DS3 is supposed to take though I'm told that's fine.
Thanks.
