Hi,
I currently have the following setup:
Abit IP35 Dark Raider
Intel Core 2 4400 2.0ghz proc
DDR2 2GB (2X1GB) 5300 667
Nvidia 8800 GTS OC2
I am looking to overclock the processor to 266fsb/2.66ghz. When I change the FSB to 266 the memory speed changes to ddr2-886 on default. When on default fsb 204 the ddr2 is 680.
I can change the memory settings and have the following options:
1:1.00 DDR2 532
1:1.2.00 DDR2 638
1:1.25 DDR2 666
1:1.50 DDR2 798
1:1.66 DDR2 886
1:2.00 DDR2 1064
Can anyone advise what settings I should choose. 1.1.25 ddr2 666 results in failure to boot and I have to clear CMOS. Am presuming if the ratio is currently 3:5 then i should choose 1:1.66 for ddr2 886 however thats over my memory speed so dont want to do anything when im not sure...
