Over clocking asus p7p55d motherboard
Hi,
I have just built a new system and am running windows 7 x64.
I have 1600MHz memory but my asus p7p55d motherboard is running at a default 1067MHz. When I first put everything together last week I tried adjusting just one setting in the bios that controls the memory speed. I boosted it up to the full 1600MHz, but this seemed to make the system unstable and it crashed a few times so I put it back to auto. Did I do something wrong? How do I go about clocking my memory up to the full 1600MHz? There is some software that comes with the motherboard that lets you over clock it from inside windows, should I use this or is it better to do it manually inside the bios?
Thanks,
Duncan
