Do you guys think it makes it much harder to try to get a stable OC while using 8gb ram (4 sticks of 2 gb)
I have 4 sticks of GSKILL DDR2 1066. I was having massinve problems and instability when I first tried to run all 4 sticks. I ended up running memtest on them all on seperate slots and it's all good. I also returned the CPU to stock 2.4 ghz speeds but havent tried to OC again. Also i put the ram at DDR2800 speeds and had no problems or issues. Yesterday I thought about OCng and seeing if it would run stable since I read on another forum that with 8gb its harder to get a stable OC especially on a nVidia board with a 650i chipset (actual board is 750i FTW)
Thanks in advance for any in put. Also my Q6600 seems to require unusually high Vcore to even boot above 3.2 Ghz. I had to use 1.5 (1.48 ater vdroop) to get it to even post and get in windows with 3.4 ghz
