I am rocking a gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R with a q6600. The ram I matched up with it is CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800. The stock clock speeds of it is 4-4-4-12.
Right off the get-go I noticed in Cpuz that the clock speeds my motherboard are actually running it as is 5-5-5-18 at 400Mhz and FSBRAM of 2:3. I was fine with this until I began to overclock. I knocked up my processor speed from 2.4Ghz to 2.7Ghz in bios. I told bios to auto adjust voltages for me. This though caused the memory to run at about 430Mhz but the clockings went up to 6-6-6-21. I don't know how to adjust the clock speeds in bios, because there is no option for editing the clock speeds manually. Even for that, there are really no Ram options at all, other than to adjust the frequency, but that is going up like it should. Anyway I can even get the ram to run at 4-4-4-12 at stock speeds?
I wanted to buy two sticks of patriot ram to go next to the corsair but there is no need for me to buy highly rated ram if my Mobo won't let me get to those speeds anyways. Thanks for any input.
