pc3200 2-2-2-5 or pc3700 2-3-3 for oc?

[sigmus]

I want to upgrade my system a bit. Ive an amd3400 1Mb cache on an asus k8n-e with a gig of corsair true value pc3200 2.5-3-3-8 and cannot get more than a 5% oc stable. Ive an extra 300ish bucks and want to upgrade. After some research, Ive narrowed things down to some ocz pc3700 2-3-3 sticks and corsairs pc3200 2-2-2-5. I want to oc my system at least a good 15-20% with rock hard stability. Which would be the way to go? Or should I just save another hundred bucks and get the amd3700 and oc it a meager 5%? Help. any helpful data would be great. Ultumately, my question is which of these options will show the better performance upgrade while having solid stability.

You could try loosing the timings on your ram a little. Are you giving any juice to the cpu and\or ram when you’re oc’in?

my mobo has this Asus AI **** and does all that for me. I mearly choose one three five or ten percent oc. Im positive my oc limitation stems from the cheap true value corsair pc3200 Ive in my rig.

Aw man, I knew it. This hold my hand and oc it for me garbage that mb makers are trying to push into the mainstream was gonna cause problems. Can you oc it yourself? You know, manually adjust the settings.

Well anyways, if I had $300 and was looking for ram I’d get these. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-146-547&depa=1

What kind of video card do you have? You might see a bigger performance increase by upgrading that.
