    What voltage are you using for Vdimm at 450FSB, 530 FSB and 550FSB?

    I would not go over 2.2v for 24/7 for ram, otherwise you should expecting it to die.

    As far as differences between them? the higher CPU Frequency the better, but sometimes you wont notice much differences in real life other than benchmarks.

    yes,,,depends on what cpu and ram voltage you are using for those 3 shots

    for the results...obvious the third one, it has the largest bandwidth

    ram is under warranty till 2.35 "if it craps out lol"gonna have to pay shipping lol
    @ 3.8 cpu @ 1.47v
    @ 4.0 cpu @ 1,57
    x38 requires more juice than p35
    whats more important latency or banwidth

    Third one :

    highest bandwidth with 2,21v
    enough cpu power @ 3,8 with 1,47, going higher requires much more
    1:1 oc (not the most important though^^)

    Here's my opinion.........
    What do you do with your PC? Are you a gamer?
    If you do a lot of gaming with your PC, then find a few games that have benchmark or testing routines that most closely resemble what you play.
    Setup an overclock, and then bench. Then - change your overclock and bench again.
    make sure you keep a detailed log of your findings. Frame rates at different resolutions are the primary data we're looking for here.

    It seems that a LOT of folks simply gear their overclock to maximize synthetic benchmark scores. There certianly is nothing wrong with that if all you're worried about is your ePenis. However, overclocking can REALLY help turn a good gaming rig into an AWESOME gaming rig. There are a slew of tools out there that can ensure your overclock is 100% stable so you don't get into the middle of a frag-fest only to have your machine go into vapor lock.

    Keep in mind - 3D Mark 05/06 is OK - but it too is largely synthetic. If you DO use it, I ignore the overall score becuase that is influenced by the CPU score also. Make sure you zone in on those individual tests FPS ratings. All in all, that's what is important. FRAME RATE. THe CPU score that 3D Mark returns WILL go up with a better overclock, but if memory bandwidth with tighter timings help incrase your frame rate, rather than a higher FSB with loose latency - I go with Frame rate.....every time.
