I've been messing with my overclock lately and been trying to push the cpu NB some but i'm not sure what would be the best overclock to stay at before it just becomes needless heat and lower performance gain?

Currently sat at 3.8Ghz @1.44v overclock and CPU NB is at 2600mhz @ 1.2v (ish)


Would 2800mhz be viable or stay at 2600mhz for the 3.8 overclock?


I've also tried pushing for 4.0ghz but it's a no go, i crash after a few mins on prime95 no matter how many volts i put into it.
 
Also could running 8gigs of ram affect the overclock potential?


Say... running 6gigs instead of the full 8gigs?
