Hello,
I'm looking for some advice /recommendations on my Ram settings for my OC.

I have OCZ 8500 Ram(4X1GB sticks) It,s rated to 1066 @ 5-5-5-15

Currently I am running a Q6600 at 8x400fsb(3.2Ghz)
I have my ram set to run at 400fsb = 800Mhz @ 4-4-4-12
It's rock solid stable and temps well under 60c under full load.


My question is:
Should I unlink my ram and run it at533fsb = 1066 @ 5-5-5-15 or keep it at 400fsb along with the CPU?

All I do is play games on this machine if that helps any.

Any help/ideas are much appreciated.

Thx for your time and yes I'm a noob,
Bam
 
You won't see a performance increase in games if you unlink your RAM. Your synthetic benchmark scores might be higher but in actual gameplay there will be no increase in FPS.
