Memory Voltage in Overclocking

first off if you want it single channel you have to change the memory slots

thiere color coded and most of the time if each memory stick is i one oppesite colors will get you 1T ,but if the memory is in the same color slots thats 2T or dual channel

You need to read the MB manual it will tell you more

Also if your not familiar with with OC'ing I would leave it be not to much of a big gain when you do this ,Most of the time Ocing can damage more then do good just keep that in mind

Hi mate..it's possible that in order to get 1T rate you "may" need to relax the timings.

Basically I would'nt bother with memory overclocks...the gain is minimal. If you O/C your CPU then depending on what divider you use then you may have your memory O/C'd anyway to some extent.

The other possibility is the mainboard you are using...personally never heard of an "EVO" board...not all motherboards will O/C..for the most part Gigabyte/Asus are the motherboards "most" overclockers use as they basically are made to O/C or support it at least.
Your board may not be one that does.
cheers

you can get 1T by using 1black slot and 1 blue only that will give you 1T even though it is rated two ,I found that out the hard way

You can get 1T with the ram in the same colorcoded slots..my mainboard just auto set it at 1T and all the ram (triple channel) is in the same color slots and

dual channel or triple whatever is meant to use the same color slots not one in each.

It's not ment to be but it works that's all im saying

TBH, you are really better keeping the RAM at or below whatever its rated specs are.
Overclocking it will not really gain you much, other than in a benchmark. But, RAm is also the easiest piece of Hardware to ruin by overclocking. Especially if exceeding recommended voltages.

When Overclocking the majority of gains will come from CPU clock/bus speeds.

So lower the RAM, find the stable CPU clocks, then raise your RAM speed to where its at or just below rated spec.
This is your best bet IMHO.
