I'm going to be new to Intel when the conroe is out...
Just wondering what ram im going to need to oc the Intel Core 2 DUO E6700 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.67GHz 1066FSB

I guess im going to need DDR2 that'll run @ 1066mhz???
I want to get a really good aircooled overclock from this cpu so what ram to you guys suggest. Obviously I dont wanna be paying £300+ for crazyram, So whats the best midrange stuff for a really good overclocking potential I dont want ram holding me back with my new beast =D.

Help much appreciated

Cool so that chip should easy hit 3.6ghz u reckon?
So i could just use those settings 400x9 and get some PC2-6400 and run @ stock speeds.

Could I say oc it to 3.2ghz or more and keep ram @ 800mhz
I aint buying anything slower than that

lolol 4ghz?
Will it run ok on air at that speed seems a bit severe 2 me

Would the bus still be 1066?

yeh but how loud are those delta fans are they a bit over the top or can u sleep in the same room...

just been looking about on google and to run a Delta on a fan controller u'd need a fan controller than can cope with 29w+

Sunbeam controller can only handle 20w per channel, thats the only fan controller which can run that much.
