So I was just noticing all my components in WEI scored above a 7 except my CPU which was 6.9... now I know WEI doesn't really mean anything but naturally It gave me the urge...
So I bumped the multiplier of my Phenom II X3 740 BE to 18x, or 3.6Ghz, and re-ran the assessment, and what do you know it's a 7
Now, being inexperienced, I'm wondering if it would be alright to continue overclocking? Should I first run some stress tests, or should I first aim for the highest clock where everything loads and then run the stress tests, and then bring it back down as needed?
Also, I have PC8500 ram, but my CPU-Z shows my memory frequency is 400MHz with a FSBRAM ratio 1:2... what setting do I need to change to make this more optimal? Thanks.
