RAM OC

[Grigor]

Hello guys i have 2x 4GB ddr4 2400mhz ADATA XPG and MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon AC . I oc the memory up to 2933 and its stable do you think i can go more then that ?

How do you know it's stable? What you used for testing?

If yes, sure, go ahead and try more but 2933MHz says nothing if we don't know how good or bad the timings are, they are very important as well.

What do you mean good or bad timings ? And how to test the memory ?

Memtest86 for testing RAM (at least one pass, preferably 5 or more, there must be 0 errors).

 

Timings affect latency, high speed at the cost of high latency is not worth it, keep timings as low as possible...

Just go check @MageTank RAM OC guide...
