I have a 680i mobo with an e6300 at 2.4 for the time being. I have just started overclocking the system and I'm not having too much luck with the ram. I have Gskill DDR2 800 here. I'm wondering what voltages and timings I shoudl be running. I'm not a big overclocker and do not know anything about RAM timings. The only way I can get it to boot stable at 900 is with 5-5-5-15 timings and 1.925v.

I know this isn't very good RAM for overclocking but I dont know what voltages are safe or what timings I should try. Hopefully with some advice from you gusy I can get it a little higher.

Also on a sidenote, what are the voltage limits on the e6300? Im not going to push it very far at the moment since Im waiting on my watercooling to come in and I'm on stock cooling. When I get my watercoolnig in though I'd like to push it as far as possible but keep full load temps under 50.
 
Just ran 3dmark06 and here are the results if it helps:

6389 3DMarks

SM2.0 Score: 2732

HDR/SM3.0 Score: 2613

CPU Score: 2048
 
I've got the g.skill gbpk. It's 1.9-2.0 volts; I run mine either at 800 4-4-4-12, or at 890 5-5-5-15 and always at 2.0 volts.
