RAM Overclock?

[Guest]

Alright so I'm fairly new to RAM overclocking and I would kinda like to know how decent this overclock is

So these are the results, 

13, 15, 15, CAS 2666MHz if anyone is wonder about the speed *double the DRAM Frequency* 

stock speeds are 1600MHz more info here http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-8gb-ddr3-memory-kit-cmz8gx3m1a1600c10

so if anyone could tell me how good the OC is that'd be nice ^-^ much appricited

when i first looked i looked at the nb freq and almost fell off my chair then i realized.

It's not terrible, did you increase volts at all?

 voltage? is it stable?

[Levent]

thats pretty damn good but I would be worried about long term stability especially if you are gaming.

yep 1.660 volts, its stable c:

can you install "asrock timing configurator" and take a screenshot of it?

It shows all the timings on the RAM.

will do, just need to go re-apply the overclock

Nice OC, especially with the latency being significantly lower than rated as well (CL13@2666 is just under 10ns, CL10@1600 is over 11ns). Voltage though, for everyday use I'd want to get below 1.65V. Even if it cost a bit on the OC.

I might be able to make it work

Dam, it doesn't seem to be recognizing everything right.

 

It should look like this:

I can go take some pictures in the bios if you like! for the most part, I didn't change any of the more advanced settings...

If I knew what type of RAM chips were on your RAM I could be of more help with suggestions for settings, but it looks decent enough.

One thing you could try is a Cinebench R15 run with the 2666, and one with 1600.

Then compare and see how much you gain.
