My system specs are
Asus M4A77TD with phenom 545 unlock 4 cores. AT 3.4ghz
Using 4gig Gskill 1600 9-9-9-24 1.5v ram.
Im wondering whats the sweet spot for the timings and the speed. I mainly play video games so.
I think im running at 1224mhz with 7-7-7-20 at 1.58v
So help on that would be great.
More info on my system. And any help on cpu too could help. Im still new to this.

    Why not list your full specs?

    Case: Optional
    PSU: Brand - Part Number
    Mobo: Asus M4A77TD
    CPU: phenom 545 unlock 4 cores. AT 3.4ghz
    HSF: Factory or after market?
    Memory: Specific Part Number?
    GPU: If any

    How much more do you plan to overclock the "other stuff" as according to specs your mobo should be able to handle 1600 up to 1800 in an overclock? Also what settings are you using to get to 3.4?

    1. What is your "goal" overclock wise?
    2. Are you still running at 1224mhz with 7-7-7-20-2T at 1.58v?

    3. What stability tests have you run at this setting?
    • Prime
    • OCCT
    • Hyper Pi

    my goal is to get everything running as fast as it could. not trying to break any records. Just optimize for gaming.
    I am still running at those speeds because i looked up some of the ram speeds and they said anything around 1200s is the right speed for gaming. I am still kinda new to this so im just asking if those are good speed for my ram, or if i can get more out of it. I can do stock 1600mhz with 9timings.
    I ran intel burn and it seems fine where im at now.
    How should i overclock the ram? Is higher mhz better than lower timings?

    I am happy at where everything is right now.. but just giving a shot to see if anyone can spot any improvements I can do.
