I'm looking for some guidance on what ram to get for a build I'm doing in February. I plan on getting a C2D E6600 CPU, 680i motherboard, 8800gtx vid card, a nice CPU cooler, and would like to overclock it. I haven't overclocked a system for about 6 years and all the memory stuff confuses me. Can some kind soul explain to me the following:
[*]What does the asynchronous timing capability of the 680i mobo do for me?
[*]At what point does making your timings worse to increase FSB defeat the purpose of increasing performance?
[*]What ram do you think I should get for the above system and what should my goals be for overclocking it?
Thanks!
