Looks like my Ripjaws are on the way out, so I've ordered 4gb XMS3 2000 C9 to replace them (only thing I could find that wasn't OCZ that'd fit under my Megahalems).
From past experience, my 860 will comfortably hit 3.65 - 3.8ghz (166x22 or 173x22). This will mean running the memory at 1992 (166x12) or 1730 (173x10). I'm guessing I could probably tighten the timings to C8 @1730 (poss C7).
So, any idea which will be better (real world) - 3.65/1992 or 3.8/1730? I use this rig for a pretty wide range (Photoshop, gaming, encoding, htpc).
