Hi guys, i have read about OC in the past, and recently also, to increase my knowledge of it. I do understand most I guess, but one thing just keeps confusing me.
Now I know fsb is quad pumped, ram is double pumped, and how you get cpu clock (multiplier x fsb). Firstly, by increasing the fsb, does the ram speed also increase with it? (I know you can fix the rates of other components of the motherboard so the increase in fsb doesnt affect them)
Because, if a person had for eg, ram 800mhz (400x2) and had a motherboard that had a fsb of 1333mhz(333x2), could he increase only fsb to 1600mhz (400x4) to get a fsb,ram ratio of 1:1? OR oc the ram a bit more (400+) and the fsb to get a higher 1:1 ratio? Do you have the option to oc ram and fsb separate?
