Worth o/c'ing my ram?

[snakefood]

Hi fellow techie dudes (and dudettes),

I have a quick question, considering my system is currently as below would I actually be able to gain any overclocking worth noticing on the memory I have installed? By this, I mean will I notice a system speed up, game improvement etc. My cpu is currently set to clock up to 4.2, as I don't want to spend a lot of time testing / benching just to get to 4.4 / 4.5.

My Rig:
YOUR BASKET

Can't list my gpu, but it's an Asus geforce 560Ti. (I know, I neeeed a faster one, but I'm near broke atm )

If you guys think I have some headroom for improvements, let me know where I should aim to start / test with?

Opinions please

Not really, overclocking RAM never results in a perceptible difference.

Cheers, I wondered if that might be the case, wanted another opinion.

Many thanks

Not on ivybridge no but on trinity where the APU is used for gaming then it makes a massive difference.

People mainly do it for fun or benchmarking

No not really you would only see a 1-2 FPS increase but then that isn't even guaranteed
