So I've got my G.Skill Ripjaws X 1600/C8 stuff running at stock clocks.

Does anybody have experience OC'ing this stuff? Is there a nice OC that I could do that I wouldn't have to crank up the volts to much thus getting the DIMMs hotter? Wondering if I ould get a little more "snap" feeling in Windows....

I've tried leaving stock timings at 8/8/8/24/2 and upping the speed to 1866 and even at 1.550v vs. 1.50v - NO POST
I've tried leaving stock speed at 1600 and upping the timings to 7/7/7/24/2 and even at 1.550v vs. 1.50v - NO POST

UPDATE:
I left stock timings at 8/8/8/24/2 and upping the speed to 1866 and at 1.650v (not a bit less) - I POST fine and Windows is stable.
Thing is, I'm not seeing a single lick of improvement in SuperPi or anything else. No change.
