Quick question about RAM voltage

Okay I have a Gigabyte P35C-DS3R motherboard with an E6420 that I'm looking to overclock. I have 2 gigs of G skill 800mhz Ram. I want to pump up my cpu FSB to 400mhz(8*400=3.2ghz). If I reach 400 mhz, I won't have to up the voltage of the Ram am I correct? I figured if the Ram is 800 mhz already, it should be no problems. 800/2=400mhz for a 1:1 ratio. So can you tell me if my logic is correct?
 
Well, it's easy enough to find out. Bump that FSB up and if it isn't stable give it some more voltage. If it's stable you're good to go. 🙂
