Right now i have ddr333 pc2700 ram. i am overclocking my cpu as of this moment to 2.08ghz or an fsb of 189*11. now when i first put the chip in, in bootup it said ddr333 for my ram. when i overclocked it. my ram went from 2.5-3-3-7 to 3-4-4-8. and then during bootup it said my dram was at ddr370. what does all of this mean. i was reading memory faq's and it said for the fsb of the cpu and the speed of the ram to be in sync. but if im running ddr333 with a 166fsb*11. then o'ced to ddr370 with a 189*11 fsb. does this mean my ram is being overclocked. and should i change the cpu back to 166 and run my ram at the better 2.5-3-3-7 settings, or would it be my benifit to run it at 2.08ghz and 3-4-4-8?
