I recently (like everyone else) built a new PC for the various games coming out within the next month but I have never been particularly comfortable tinkering too much with the BIOS/CMOS settings so I decided to go with one of OCUKs pre-overclocked Mobo / CPU / RAM deals.
At the time I thought that 4GB would be enough (and while many would argue that it is) I am tempted to put in another 4GB. The thing that is stopping me is the "disclaimer" that OCUK put on the page being:
"Note - Please note that adding in additional memory to the spare slots will require new BIOS settings and the maximum clock speed attainable may be significantly reduced."
Is this more of a "cover-our-asses" disclaimer or is there a decent chance that adding another 2 sticks of 2GB RAM is going to cause stability issues or lower the highest attainable clock speed?
Thanks for any feedback.
