Overclocking ram MHz or faster timing

What's better when Overclocking ram faster times or more MHz?

@awax187187: Umm both equally.

Depends on other variables like CPU clock speed and voltages.

Neither make much of a difference to anything apart from bleeding edge benching.

Neither, not worth it at all.. You'd never notice the difference. The only thing worth overclocking these days is the CPU.

I've tried overclocking my RAM but was getting stability issues. A few of the overclocking forums I frequent tend to agree with that. Overclocking RAM isn't really worth it.

Both if you can.I run my 1600Mhz sticks at 2133Mhz and have noticed a slight improvement on the minimum frame rates.

i wouldn't recommend setting your ram voltage higher than 1.65v though.

Just leave it as 1600mhz if it can.

It doesn't matter what speed it is as long as its DDR3 at you have 8GB's or more.

This.

Hardly worth the effort for what would be an unnoticable increase in performance

There's a general formula

2000 x (CL / Speed ) = Latency in nanoseconds (ns)

It also depends on the application, games tend to like lower cas latency, while programs like winrar prefer throughput.
