What to do?

[Tarren602]

Hello everyone,

I have overclocked my i7-950 3.06GHz to a stable 3.8GHz. When i go into my BIOS to change the memory speed back up I noticed that the 1866MHz option is no longer there. I can choose 1730MHz or 2038MHz. I am running the Kingston HyperX DDR3 1866MHz ram. What option would be the best to go with?

i7-950 3.06GHz (O.C)
Kingston HyperX DDR3 1866Mhz 6GB
ASUS Sabertooth X58
GeForce GTX 460 (O.C)
SoundBlaster X-FI Titanium Fatal1ty Professional


Thanks

I would go with 1730. I have the same board but with a 930. I overclocked mine to 3.8 what I did was lower my multiplier and up the clock and my 1600 ram is running at 1630 which is perfect for me.
