1T or 2T?

1t or 2t mem command rate, which is best for a stable overclock on a A64 x2 4200+, asus A8N e, 2 gb ocz el ddr400 platinum 2.5,3,2,5?

Also if I set the mem to ddr 333 to try and oc should I leave the timings at default?

1T = Better performance. Use 2T if you're having stability issues at 1T.

The thing is I was having stability issues at 2t but 1t APPEARS to have fixed it. Is this possible? I also changed the mem voltage to 2.8 from 2.7 but the mem is only at 192.8 (fsb 245x11), the vcore is at auto (1.36).

It's better to have slightly looser timings and run at 1T if you can. Can give a noticeable performance boost in memory intensive apps

I had stabilty probs recently till i upped my ram volts to its max rated 2.8 .Try and get your ram to its max oc,1t and an oc will make it even faster.
Use this handy tool to get an oc nearest your highest ram oc

From what i`ve read some ram doesnt like going over 250 fsb at 1t so you could try a low level oc to start out.Oh and remember to give your cpu more volts (about 1.4) to start off with.

memtest test number 8 is usually good for picking out command rate related errors.
