Default Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

the key is the mobo you're usin'...that's the guide. usually the ram timings are locked into the FSB...unless you unlock them, which is NOT advised. as a general rule the more you OC your ram the looser your timings will have to be. but OC'g your cpu does NOT mean you have to OC your ram. you'll have multiple choices in ram speed when you OC your cpu. it's then you have to make choice on what you can/want to do with your ram speed/timings. hope that makes sense.

EDIT: most of my bookmarks for OC'g relate to the Q6600 and ASUS P5K mobo. do a search on your mobo and the Q6600 and you'll probably find hits directly related to your setup.
