stupid question

Post by SepheronX »

Read my system specs in my sig.

I am overclocking, and I completly forgot, in cpu ram ratio, what do I set it to for what? I mean, if I want DDR 333 speeds, or 266 speeds, what do I switch it too (of course, in ratio settings 5/3, 2/3? normal is 2/2)

What is your HT (reference) clock set at? This combined with the ratio will determin your RAM speed;

i.e. 5/3: 200 HT = 120 RAM
2/3: 200 HT = 300 RAM
2/2: 200 HT = 200 RAM

So find the divider that closest gives you the correct speed, if you dont want to overclock your RAM you'll have to choose a divider that gives a speed below 333.
