I have a question on the FSBRAM ratio issue I keep hearing so much about, and what I should do to optimize my system. Right now I have:
Motherboard: Gigabyte EP45-DS3R
CPU: Intel Q9450 (OC'd to 3.2GHz via 400 x 8)
Memory: Corsair Dominator PC8500
I just changed my FSBRAM ratio to make it 1:1 per so many recommendations. I also hear that when you do this you can tighten your timings. What should I tighten mine to? Right now I have mine at stock EPP 5:5:5:15 (2T) at 800MHz (it was at 1066MHz and 3:4 FSBRAM ratio until I bumped it back to make it 1:1). Do I try 4-4-4-12 (2T) at 800MHz or should I put it back to the 1066MHz memory speed? I just want to get my money's worth in performance and stability. Thanks.
