CPU-Z and also Everest are reading that my OCZ DDR2-6400 800MHZ CL4 Platinum
is actually running at cl5? (is that possible?) is the reading misinterpreted ?
(Since everest reads my ram is XTC memory, which it isn't)..
right now im going to test to see if Sandra and then PCwizard 2007... but if i see that it runs at cl5.. what can I do about it?
there are 0 options at my bios for chaning the CL (Motherboard - Gigabyte G965PDS3 rev3.3)
thanks in advance!
(edit:
in almost of all the program I see a chart that says something like
267MHZCL3
333MHZCL4
400MHZCL5
why do they false advertise then if this is true?)
EDIT 2:
ok found a way to enable more options in my bios, now I can change all the RAM settings...
now my question is, if its advertised at cl4 800mhz, is it safe to do 4-4-4-12 800mhz (instead of the present 5-5-5-15)
and should I up it by 0.01v? (or more?) or just let the bios automatically increase voltages according to overclocks (it has an Auto option for voltages)...
thanks!
edit 3: question that has nothing to do with this^^^
if up my fsb to 333 and lower my multiplier to 7 (keeping the same exact 2400MHZ) - will that count as overclocking and break my warranty?
