I have the following RAM:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820144310

Geil PC3200 Value dual-channel DDRAM

The RAM says on it that the timings are CAS 2.5, 8-4-4

Has anyone had any luck overclocking this particular RAM? If so, please let me know what timings you used and what voltages.

You see, my motherboard has /10, 12/, /15, and /20 RAM dividers but I can't seem to run my RAM any faster than 210 mhz. That means I'm kinda stuck at 2500 mhz. for now... I know for a fact that my CPU can run as high as 2700 stably, but the RAM doesn't seem to handle 2700/12 = 225 mhz. and the next step would be 2700/15 = 180 mhz and I don't want to run my RAM slower than it is rated!

Anyways, please give me any suggestions you can. I may just have to get faster RAM :)

Also, my bios has a setting for row-to-row latency, I don't know what to set this to because it's not one of the specs on the RAM. Any ideas?
