I have a 3820 with an ECS board and Mushkin 2133 ram and this will not overclock at all when I try to raise voltage +40, mabey I am not high enough but am afraid to use any higher voltage. I like add a little voltage and get a little o/c. I don’t like, burn up the cpu by not knowing what to do. I am going to buy some PC16000 and hope it works. Then hope I find some recommendations for this board, I have not seen even one yet and ECS, they don’t communicate, except once.

In reply to Theinstinct69. Oh, damn. I thought something like that would be happening. Since the RAM's clock speed should be somewhat in par or in an input that the processor wants to cooperate with, I think. But lucky, you! I'm still waiting for the semester to finish so I can focus on building my LGA2011 rig.
