Open BIOS, turn on XMP.

 

About the easiest thing in your system to OC, really.

Ive done that, its running at 2200MHz with XMP.

But interested in changing timings now.

I've never bothered, tbqh. I've tried it a couple of times, and it's always been too much of a pain in the nuts for the minimal performance gains (outside of APU applications) that overclocking RAM gets you.

I just thought it would be interesting to do. 
I wouldnt expect much of anything really with these G. Skill Snipers anyways

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I tried it, but I wouldn't try it again when the manufacturer gives me an easy button
