I'm getting some new memory this week, OCZ EB DDR PC-4000 / 500MHz, but I'm new to overclocking and could use some advice. I have an Asus P4C800E-Deluxe, with P4 3.2 Ghz Northwood. I'd like to get up to at least a 250 FSB 1:1 with the new memory. But, if I can't get that high, for example, if I could get a 243 FSB, and my DRAM frequency is set to Auto, that means 1:1, then my memory will be at 243 also. If I underclock the memory in this instance, will it have a minimal effect on the overclock of the CPU?
And another scenario, would there be any reason for me to work with a 5:4 ratio?
With DDR 500, I'd be at 250 MHz and at 5:4, I'd be starting the CPU at 312.50, there's no way. Am I finally getting this?
