I have a few questins about Rams,

i understand how to overclock rams but I have afew questions about higher ghz ram.

 

lets say I have 2400ghz ram and my board  says it can handle the ram but under OC* does that mean after seting my XMP to 2400 I can just install the ram or do i have to clock it down?

 

or do I set the XMP to 2400 and let it run a 2400ghz?

first off its 2.4ghz, 2400mhz. giga>mega. 

 

if you're installing dd3, it will just work, at speed supported by motherboard and ram. if you have 2400mhz ram, it will run on a mother board which supports that speed or higher...

but my board says 2.4ghz * 

*= oc

 

so does that mean I just set my xmp  I can run the ram on my board with no problem

2.4GHz = 2400MHz

 

Not 2400GHz

 

But odds are you can set XMP. I've run 2133mhz on LGA1155 boards that only 'supported' 1333MHz without the "O.C".

tho remember , unless your running an APU its pointless getting faster RAM / overclocking it

I got the ram as a present so I was thinking to put it into the editing rig for the youtube video making

Just to clarify, you have to install your RAM first, then the XMP settings should show up within the BIOS for you to select.
