Better Ram OC ?

[Scientist]

Hi guys, so i just got my new mobo and cpu GA-Z87X-UD4H,i5 4670k
Im using my old memory 8 GB Corsair Vengeance Performance 1600 Mhz
So right now i did some OC and got at 1800 Mhz 9-11-11-28 1.500 v
at 2000 Mhz 9-12-12-30 1.650 v with auto timings , which one is better and do you think i can push it more?
Another thing is in bios i see Channel A Timing Setting and Channel B .....
do i need to change the timings on both or let it on auto?

In the MSI bios there is an option called "link" meaning whatever setting you set for dimm 1 it will set for all other dimms.. If you don't have something similar then you will need to do both.

Download CPU-Z and it will allow you to check current settings inside windows. To download look under the the search bar on the right side, they have a lot of download ads so be sure it's correct before installing crap.

Also the best settings for games(not all but most) is 1866mhz and CL9 timings. Any higher timings will diminish performance unless you can keep CL9 and higher MHz.

You are really pushing it at 1.65v. I would not go passed 1.6v, the 1.5v with 9-11-11-28 and 1800mhz is better and your RAM will last longer. But again 1.65v is to high.
