Hello, just have a quick one about over clock RAM. Will I see a big difference in trying to over clock my RAM from 800Mhz to 1066Mhz? Here are my system specs:
AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb (Overclocked to 3.6GHz) Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor
GIGABYTE GA-MA785G-UD3H AM3/AM2+/AM2 AMD 785G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
COOLER MASTER V8 RR-UV8-XBU1-GP 120mm Rifle CPU Cooler Intel Core i7 compatible
Kingston HyperX T1 Series 8GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model KHX8500D2T1K2/4G
2 Cross-fired MSI R5770 Hawk Radeons 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
2 Western Digital Caviar Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
XION Power Real XON-1250P14HE 1250W ATX 12V v2.2 / EPS 12V v2.91 / SSI v2.92 SLI 3 ways SLI supported.
Thermaltake Element S VK60001N2Z Black SECC ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
I was trying to overclock this system once before and I might have added too much voltage I think because my PC wouldn't post. I then had to pull the reset switch on the bios out to get the factory defaults. I don't think adding more then 2.2 volts with DDR2 will hurt anything however I am a bit nervous when it comes to over volting and I don't know if its even worth it to take the risk. If someone has overclocked RAM before with my configuration then please help. Thanx.
