Now if you arent concerned about max oc and really only want to run 400x9 then i dont think the commando is for you because you arent reaping the benefits of what its really good at. High fsb.
I think a lot of people look at that 3.6ghz as a wall on air cooling and thats what they're shooting for. A lot of attention is then placed on achieving 400x9 oc's.

I have a question though regarding ram to go along with the 1333 strap. Is running 1:1 or 4:5 more beneficial? Would someone benefit from purchasing PC8000 stix to make 1:1 easier on the 1333 strap?
