RAM, DDR2 800 vs. DDR2 anything better

[spaztic7]

Ok... I have DDR2 800 oced to DDR2 1000. I am thinking of upgrading to 1066 (I can't get mine to run stable at 1066) up to 1200. I know that there are large jumps in bandwidth, but will I notice it? Also, will the latency have a great effect on this as well.

More detilas on your spec would be needed... Are you OCing CPU and if so what too?

Is there anything else I need to tell you?

You dont need to OC your RAM to get a better OC on your Q6600... if you keep the FSBRAM at 1:1 you will get the best performance and youll find you dont have to OC the hell outta your RAM anywayz

When I tried the 1:1 ratio.... the ram did not like that. I dont really understand this 1:1 ratio anyways. What dose this mean?
