I'm thinking of getting an Asus P5N32-E 680i motherboard, which I believe supports memory with EPP. As I understand it, EPP basically puts more information about the memory, such as the optimal settings, on the memory. It allows the computer to automatically set the right timings and even overclock the computer.
I'm new to overclocking, and the one thing that scares me the most is the memory. There are so many timing settings that I don't understand. Would EPP memory make life easier for me? Also, I hear often that automatic overclocks don't reach the maximum potential of the hardware and are usually pretty modest.
What are the (actual) benifits of EPP when overclocking and setting up a computer in general? How would it be different from memory without EPP? Any help would be appreciated!
