I'm running a ASUS P4C800 Del. w/ 2x512 MB PC3200 RAM. I'm using a P4 2.53 GHz w/ 533 FSB. I'll soon be upg. to an 800 FSB Proc. so that I can run the RAM @ 400MHz

2 Things:
1) Is a 2.6 800FSB P4 good enough for serious OCing - I've heard of people taking 2.4s to 3.0+ w/ my mobo
2)How can I overclock my RAM. I've looked all over the BIOS and can't seem to find anywhere to do it. I've OCd the CPU before, but not the RAM.

Thanks,
Matt

when OCing the CPU, the ram will be OCd also, its in ram divider, and is the ratio of clocks to the CPU and RAM.
As its PC3200 RAM, its FSB is 200Mhz, so its running at standard at stock speeds, so if you are OCing, id set the ram divider to 5:4, you will be able to get to 3.25Ghz before your RAM becomes a limiting factor
