m a little confused as to how my memory is setup
i currently have 4 gig of ocz pc2 8500 certified to run @ 1066
now
am i right in saying that your memory runs at whatever your fsb is set to ?
my e8500 is clocked @ 4.0 with the fsb @ 421 @ 9.5 multi
on cpuz my memory is @ 526.3 @ 4:5 fsb to dram
if i i leave my fsb @ 333 standard i will get 1066 on the mem, then when the fsb is increased the mem freq increases too. am i right in saying that i need to set my mem freq at a happy medium closest to 1066 ? that being 526.3mhz x 2 =1052.6 that being close to 1066

have i grasped this correctly or have i completely missed it ?
im about to add another 4 gigs tomorrow

any help / advise / making my understanding of this would be very very much appreciated

thanks
 
well i put the other 2 sticks of ocz in so now 8 gig in total
booted first time and cpu fsb is @ 421 with a 9.5 multi
ram frequency is @ 526.3 with fsb dram 5.4

put it down to 1:1 till i figure out how this all works
