OK,im finished with the testing...and my theory is right!!! overclocking my ram gives me more performance than cpu!! wow RAM 553(341cpuz) winrar 900kb/s 30fps in dirt2 667(390cpuz) winrar 970kb/s 38fps in dirt2 800(455cpuz) winrar 1060kb/s 40fps in dirt2 its running at 2v now,havent tried lower voltage,but i think 2v is ok. Bad thing is,the max i can get the ram to is this.For more i have to lower multiplier and increase fsb,but after 260 fsb(my current with max multiplier)I get insane instability,sometimes pc cant even boot and never gets to windows So thats it 910mhz

ok,now dont say im crazy ,but I have run 3dmark and i have more cpu score with ram at 667 then at 400.Also Winrar shows 750kb/s with 400ram,and 1020kb/s with 667. Shoot me! All in all,downclocking my ram to 400 from 667 decreases my CPU power by around 30% Just to ask,cuz i will make a little test.What is safe to overclock my ram to? just to test if my theory is right,more ram speed,more power .I am going for 800+,will 900 be safe.Its running at 1,9v default(selected by my mobo)

My cpu temp is fine,around 45c on Prime95. My mobo is k9n nforce 570 sli(the red one,not platinum)MS-7250 I ran that Throttlewatch and it shows 1-2% cpu usage,2729mhz,1.350v...I dont see anything wrong in those numbers,except that the cpu speed jumps to 4,5ghz from time to time Also,just to clarify The only thing I change is ram from 667mhz to 400,and my fps drops by 10. this is cpu-z pic http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn104/trsparrot/Untitled.jpg

I dont have Trfc timing in bios. This is the reason i lowered my ram to 400,it was only temporary while i was ocing the cpu.It is running absolutely stable at 667mhz now.But why my fps lowers so much if i lower it to 400?Its like cpu is not overclocked ..even tho it shows 2725mhz.I am wondering if I overclock my ram to 1ghz,maybe i get even 50 fps ? What is causing that performance impact.I didnt expect even 1 fps less when clocked to 400..but it lowered it from 40 to 30!

hey guys,I have successfully OCed my cpu to 2725mhz(260fsb) My ram is DDR2 800mhz,cpu-z reporting 390mhz(780mhz).I set it to 667 in bios. FSB:DRAM is currently at CPU:7 With this setup I get Average 40fps in Dirt2,on ultra graphics. Now the problem! If I lower my ram to 400 in bios,it will run at around 270 in cpu-z. Still my cpu is at 2725mhz,but I get Average 30fps in Dirt2???? Can somebody explain how is this possible,why my ram bottlenecks so hard.How do i find the point at where i will clear the bottleneck
