RAM Timings

[fire_munki]

Hi,
My FSB has been pushed up to 450MHz so my 800MHz DDR2 is now running at 900MHz.
The PC is as stable as it was at normal clock speeds, the current RAM timings are 5-5-5-18.
For increased performance would it be better trying to hit a higher CPU speed or tighten the timings up?
I don't know how fast the RAM should really be pushed to?

My spec is:
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3LR
E6320 @ 3.15GHz
Zotac 8800 Amp edition@700/2000
Thermal take purepower 680W
Arctic Cooling AC-FRZ-7P Freezer 7 Pro Rev2
Corsair 4GB Kit (2x2GB) DDR2 800MHz

your gonna be pushing that ram at its limit to be honest, you can try and tighten the timings up but probs wont work (will crash or not boot), pushing the fsb further would be a good option but again depends on cpu.
