Need help Overclocking OCZ Platinum/Titanium Ram, My 4800 w/ DDTDX, 7800gtx512's SLI DD Blocks

Hey guys.

I have 4 gigs of OCZ Platinum and Titanium Ram.

The problem is, I have 2 gigs of each kind.

I want to overclock on my A8N-SLI32 Deluxe(Copper Heatpipe/wfan) but I really don't know how


I searched on this board I found people have trouble getting over a certain mhz but right now I just want to expose myself to overclock the ram.

Is it a problem setting 2 different timings since I assume the titanium and platinum's have different peak timings?

Can someone tell me their highest and what I should be aiming for?

Will it make a difference in XP64? Sorry for all the questions guys but I'm exposing myself to OC'ing.

Also, I got an AMD 4800+ X2, I want to overclock it but I do not want to void any warranty. Will i get any good type of overclock? I'm running a Danger Den Pure silver block in an EXOS 2 cooling system... What should I am for and how should I do it?

Same question for my dual 512mb SLI 7800 GTX setup ( Asus edition ), what should I aim for? They're also both watercooled with Danger Den waterblocks as well..

Thanks guys!
 
*sigh* Where to begin...first of all...you can't OC your Processor with out voiding your warranty. You do so at your own risk. You also can't set different timings/voltages with your ram, they all have to run at the same frequency, the LCD I guess. With water and a decent stepping, I'd go for 2.8-3.0 with the X2, I wouldn't go over 1.55vcore with it though. I have absolutely no idea what chips are on the ram you have, whether it likes LL or High Speed, and its too late at night for me to research that, so someone else will have to do that. You'll have to figure the ram dividers and crap out for yourself.

My guess would be 2.8Ghz max unless you have a really good stepping. Your ram need to run at T2 and with the slowest timings of the two brands.
 
Mind letting us in on the timings/speed/etc.?

That'd help quite a bit.

Also, if you ever get frustrated and decide to quit using computers, I'll be happy to take your parts off your hands for you :laugh:
