Hey guys, So I recently got back at it again on tweaking my personal rig and I was going through the Internet and I found my motherboard spec sheet and ram support. So apparently my motherboard supports ddr3 (duh) at 3000mhz obviously overclocked. Okay so now here comes what I want to do I want to over clock my ram but not to that extend I want to overclock it so I can see noticible results or at least a safe overclock that can give me an extra performance boost in my PC overall. I know I won't get much out of gaming but I don't game that much, I don't even have a GPU but here are my specs

 

motherboard: GA-z87-D3HP

CPU: Intel i5 4670k (overclocked 4.4Ghz 29% overclock not too shabby with H100)

 ram: Kingston hyper X (8gbs) ddr3 1600Mhz

 

So here is basically my main components I don't feel the need to bore you with what kind of SSD's I'm running or hard drives. I just want a straight forward answer on whether it's actually feasible or not; and if it is how can I achieve it and how high should I set my multiplier and still be safe.

 

Thank you!

Quite the opposite, if you are using the iGPU, you will gain quite a lot from RAM OCing!

 

But anyway, here. This should be better than a wall of text.
