Hi, I am a brand spanking new member here. I have been lurking around alot and hopefully picked up a few pointers. First I will lay out my system:
CPU 2.7 Intel Celeron
Motherboard ASUS P4B533
Two sticks of Kingston Technology HyperX 512MB PC4000 DDR DIMM Memory
Volcano +7 cpu cooler
Radeon 9800XT
Soundblaster live

DDR reference voltage 2.7
SDram CAS 2T
RAS + CAS delay 2T
RAS precharge delay 2T
Active precharge delay 6T


CK x 16 strength control 2.50x
CK x 8 strength control 2.50x
DQ DQS strength control 2.50x

I have my RAM set at 3:4
I have it OverClocked to 3.321


Now for my questions.
Having my ram at 3:4 is it better than 1:1?
How high can I go voltage wise before I have to worry? Current temps are running 111 degrees on load. Whats max temp?
Whats the best way to over clock the RAM I have. I know it can take alot.With these few questions answered,I know I will be able to crank this thing up high and tight.
 
All that with a CELERON ?

Hmm... you spent all that money on the good stuff and then you bought a celeron?
 
Actually,I got the Celeron for free:p So I built around it, knowing I was planning on upgrading it later. But I want to burn that bad boy now:D
 
Oh... well good deal then. Hurry up and kill it :D

Your celeron should be okay up to 65c or so (Use celcius damnit :p) -- that's 145 F (approx). 111 is absolutely nothing to worry about.
 
Yes I will agree, burn the celeron in and make it die so you can get a new one. Also, correct me if i'm wrong but the motherboard you have, doesn't it have a better sound quality then a soundblaster live?
 
LOL, I didn't even check that..DOH! I'll have to read up on that


Edited,Well I read up. My board doesn't have onboard the support. Bummer:(
