Tweaking Questions

[harbinger52]

Here is my system: P4 2.4(B0) @2.8(156fsb)/ Abit IT7 max 2 ver2, 512mb Kingston HyperX PC3500/ Ati 9700/ Vantec Aeroflow

Right now I have the cpu volatage @ 1.6v and the mem ratio at 1:1. My question is I want to push the ram a little closer to the 433mhz. If I change to a 4:5 or 3:4 ratio will that require me to up the Dram voltage? If so why would I have to up the dram voltage because the memory right now is not running at what it is rated at?

You shouldn't have to mess with the memory voltage. You can try it to see if it'll help if you run into problems, but chances are it won't do anything...hth

May have to raise it a notch as some mobos just require a bit no matter if you are running under spec...Also running a higher cpu/ram ratio often requires a vcore notch up as well....keep that in mind...
