Also just taking up on the cooling issue, I wouldn't overclock the memory
UNLESS, it's good quality and comes with a heatsink attached have a look at
the OZR memory web page, their memory is specifically made for Gamers with
low latency rates. Also with that much memory in your machine I assume you
are running Vista 64 bit version as if your running 32 bit OS then 6gb ram
aint gonna do you much good no matter what speed you over clock to as the OS
cant make use of it
