Guys can you tell me if my overclocking stats are ok in order to keep my machine stable 24/7, i dont want to fry anything

Running on an Asus P6T Deluxe

OCd to 3.5 GHz
Manual setting
Multiplier x20
BCLK at 175
Memory set to Auto
Bumped The ram to work 1.64 constant

I am not that good at Overclocking but that seems to run pretty darn well. The only thing i am concerned about is the AUTO ram, i dont see anywhere where i can adjust it for what i am running, but then again my system is running fine and i dont know exactly what the RAM settings should be at for my OC profile.

I am worried about frying something down the line as i keep this OCd at all time and have some setting off which will hurt my wallet.

Thanks
 
but when i set my ram to AUTO doe it usually run higher than stock setting of 1600 when the CPU is OC'd??? i sure hope it isnt underclocked

When you set it to auto, it will use the automatic multiplier and may run the ram at a frequency lower than that which it is rated at. The best thing to do is to manually set the multiplier, timings, and RAM voltage to ensure that your memory runs at the specified speeds.
 
where can i see a guide on how to do that? i dont know what i am doing when it comes to RAM and adjusting its timings. thanks for helping me out btw!
 
the ram divider and cpu qpi is what determines your ram speed. your qpi (bclk) is 175 and if your ram divider is 2:8 then 175x8=1400mhz.
