Help me with Overclocking please!

[Jbizzle]

I have not overclocked before, and am having trouble figuring out settings for my set up.

I see a bunch of guides on how to run certain settings, but I was told that my memory is slow, and therefore i cannot overclock well.

This is the memory I am using

Is there any way I can get my set up to a stable 3.8ghz?

Specs are in sig

Thanks!!!

you just need to drop the multiplier for the ram.. just because the ram isnt ddr3 1600 doesnt mean the processor cant hit 3.8ghz.. just takes a little more work then it would..

Ahh ok thanks. So I should go 2:8 instead of 2:6 etc?

The "Dummy OC" in BIOS won't even boot :/

im not sure about all the settings in that specific bios.. but yeah that should work.. just slowly work your way up on the bclk..

make sure you set the cpu voltage to 1.35v it should be able to do 3.8ghz at that voltage.. just make sure its stable.. then you can go back and try lower voltage settings..
