Will 1333Mhz ram survive a 100MHz cpu overclock?

[NoCashFlow]

I want to OC my i5-4690k by just 100 MHz to hit the 4GHz boost. I feel that the overclock is so slight that OC genie will suffice.

Here is the question: I have standard 1333mhz ram. I belive that OC genie adjusts ram voltage and speed to match the cpu overclock, but will this result in a BSOD since my ram is so slow?

I know a 100Mhz overclock is pointless in terms of performance increase. This is just a learning experience. Any help is appreciated!

Your CPU works at 3.5ghz and you'll need to overclock it 500mhz to reach those 4ghz on all cores.

Correct, however i mentioned a 4Ghz boost speed, not 4GHz base. Unless overclocking disables intel turbo-thingy it will hit 4GHz. If intel turbo-thingy is disabled (i dont think i will be) then i will just forget about it...

Regardless, the DRAM will be fine, you can raise the base to 36 or simply raise it to 40, the DRAM will sill run at 1333

Ok, to my understanding the ram would change frequency whenever the cpu does if you're using OC genie. I will simply have to try it then, and let the worst case cenario be a cmos reset. Thank you for info!

Just change the multiplier to 40 and see what happens. The RAM will always be at 1333MHz, if you don´t overclock the BLCK or change the frequency of the RAM manually or load a oc profile.

If you use OC-Genie, the RAM frequency won´t change:

For real overclocking, you will have to change all settings by yourself and find the best settings for your CPU.
