You might want to get the RAM below 800MHz to overclock the CPU, then overclock the RAM.

So? Your RAM might be limiting your overclock, having an extra 200MHz in the CPU is better than 1:1 ratio on the RAM.

Its possible but I don't see how the RAM is having trouble running at 60MHz above its given 800MHz speed. I'll test it all once I reload the OS soon.

Does your mobo overvolt at all? Mine did. My RAM overvolted by .08v, so if I set vdimm to 1.92v, it would come out as 2.0v in Windows. My NB was also overvolted, by .04 volts. Try setting AI Clock Twister to Moderate or Light, possibly even Lighter. The only time I was able to get it stable with the Strong setting was on an older BIOS, I think it was the 0410 BIOS and I got my CPU up to 3.8ghz , not certain though. Your RAM should be fine at 860mhz.
