Please can someone shed some basic light on this subject please? I have read and read and read articles and posts... but have come to conclusion I must be thick!

My HTPC is an Athlon II X2 245 overclocked to 3.62GHz. The PC2-6400 memory has been downclocked in the BIOS to 266, so is now running effectively at 665MHz.

Let's assume that if I set the memory to 333, the resulting effective speed of 833MHz is too great (it's not, but let's assume!) and I therefore have to leave it at 665MHz.

Can I 'tighten up' timings or something?

V confused... apologies for waffle!!
