Default Re: GA-EP45T-DS3R DDR3-1600 So far so good

I am going to install a Ximgmatek S1283 on the CPU this evening so I don't have to worry about CPU temps and can raise the CPU X up later just if it seems worth it. The side mount fan is blowing directly on to the northbridge and ram and both are just mildly warm (as in I could leave my "finger probe" on them all day long without any problem)

The 450 FSB works fine for me, so I am going to leave it.

I was just wondering about how much heat an increase in frequency (without an increase in voltage) adds.

And I was going to get your thoughts on the RAM advanced timings as well, I wasn't too sure about what I could change. I know through testing, so far, that 8 is the lowest I can go on Static tRead.

Thanks much for your help - always appreciated.
