So if you raise your fsb to speed up your cpu it also overclocks your ram among other things. This is why cpus with unlocked multipliers are better, you can increase the multiplier instead of the fsb so it only effects the cpu.I have 2 sticks Corsair DDR3 1333Mhz , i leave them running at 1066MHz
And if you overclocked with your fsb you might have to turn down the speed of the ram to get it to function correctly. That is one of the down sides to over clocking using FSB, sometimes you are limited to the most limiting thing in the system, not the cpu.
Wait where is that quote from? That quote is completely wrong.
Quote:Was just curious since changing fsb freqvency has an impact on the sdram aswell.
No it doesn't, not unless you leave the ratio linked, which you shouldn't.
Quote:Question: wont the ram freq. bottleneck the cpu?
Depends on the cpu, the cpu settings, and the application.
Quote: How can i get it to work with 1066? ( probably the timings are off, but i dont have the case of the rams anymore.)
Don't, memory overclocking is a dumb idea unless you absolutely have to.
Quote:If i change the fsb freqvency i will have to change the dram voltage and timing as well amiright?
No.
Quote:A completely unrelated question if i may. Whats your opinion on windows 8? Performance and accessibility wise.
It's a shittier version of windows 7. Don't bother.

GPUs generally produce a lot more heat and run hotter, I doubt it's poorly made.
Quote:I need to alter fsb freqvency and voltage, but i have no idea how. Hence my asking for help.
To be exact i know how. I just dont know the values and whats safe or not. Thats why i asked if some1 was familiar with these older core 2 duos.
I didnt find anything exact on the web. Just generic stuff. Wich im not risking.
Well no offense but you must not have looked very hard. Simply typing "e6850 overclock" into google nets you dozens of results of settings used by people to achieve stable overclocks on that exact chip along with detailed overclocking guides showing how to increase fsb frequency and voltages on various motherboards.
You're going to find more people who are "familiar with these older core 2 duos" via a google search than on these forums I can promise you that.
