Overclocking
Out of the box the XMP gives a slight overclock to the BCLK, up from 133MHz to 143MHz for a 3.15GHz CPU speed.
Of course as good as that is, systems are always happier with the golden 200MHz BCLK. Firstly though we had to see how far the Radioactive would go and managed to get a minor speed increase up to 2072.4MHz effective.
Leaving the BCLK at 200MHz and tightening the timings we got the Radioactive from 8-10-8-27 down to 8-9-8-24. With the processor at 4GHz this will be our overclock settings.
