Noobie question, but face it, we were all noobs once...
I will be getting an Abit KV8 Pro with an A64 3200+, which I believe runs on 200mhz FSB. Now, I will be doing some overclocking. What I want to know is if it is worth getting ram rated more than 3200, such as perhaps 4000 which runs at 500mhz. Theoretically, I see it as I have some... 50mhz to up on the FSB before I hit the ram's actual intended operation speed, and this way I would not be stressing the ram up to 250mhz FSB overclock. Then I can go north from there. This could yield me some more OC, right?
Anyone with experience, please do share!
