New to O'Cing - Is this set up ok??

[Neal]

Hi all,

I have just built a pc, and set about learning to O'c it.

PC specs are

Pentium D 940 (presler) 3.2 ghz using a thermalight copper pipe heatsink.
Asrock Dual Core VSTA motherboard
2 Gig DDR2 ram (kingston budget) - with heat spreaders
Nvidia 7300le pci-e 256mb graphics card.
PSU optronix 500w silent


Im just wanting to check what i have done is ok really,

I increased frequency to 220mhz making 3.51ghz (10% increase)
left multiplyer at x16
Ram/CPU ratio of 8:6
Idle temps are around 42 degrees C
Full stress test using everest Temp got 53 degrees C

System is stable, and works ok, but being a newbie i just wanted to check.

Plus, my ram has 2 clock speeds in the bios, 266 and 333mhz, currently running 293.5 mhz after OC

Would i get better results if the ram speed was 333, or is it better being closer to the cpu clock speed (before multiplyer)

Thanks in advance for any advice etc..

Neal

That overclock is fine. What kind of ram do you have? PC 3200 400Mhz?? if so try tunning 1:1 they might be able to handle 440Mhz.
