Just ordered this motherboard a few days ago. Should be recieving it on Thursday, gonna be outta town until Sunday though. So I'll get around to putting together the below signature'd rig.

any tips on initial processes on trying to do a bit of OC'ing?

I wanna get my ram up to the 1600 rating, otherwise, just looking for a suttle CPU OC, most likley more on the GPU clocking side of things though.

Any advice is always appreciated

Thanks

If any of you guys follow me on youtube, this is what i have been doing for quite awhile. I promised myself that i would get 3.9ghz stable...and it seems as tho i got 17mhz higher...so ill call it 3.92ghz prime stable

I know that super pi 1m dont mean anything towards stability but i can honestly say that this is the most stable overclock ive ever had.

I've been wondering about getting this MB but was concerned about finding memory to run stably at 1600 and can OC pretty well. Any advice? I was leaning towards some Corsair XMS3's. Any suggestions?
