UnOfficial Asus Rampage II Extreme Thread

I assume you mean overclocking the CPU, if I was to have 12GB how far could I OC a 920? How far could I OC a 920 with just 6GB of the same memory or perhaps a higher speed memory? In the end I am not trying to be a number cruncher I just want to be able to play video games at 2560 x 1600 resolution and not have my CPU choke my GPUs.

I run 12Gb & it's hard to get over 1600/1700 mainly because you need high vQPI for running 12Gb & as I believe it will also depend on your particular CPU sample (internal memory controller quality)

It's nice to run without pagefile, windows is more responsive & games load quicker, although there's no performance increase, at least that I have noticed.

Things get a bit more complicated with 12Gb but it's deffinately attainable together with a nice CPU OC, you will need to slowly raise vQPI & maybe loosen a bit some subtimings
