12800CL7D-4GBRH with ASUS P7P55D PRO BIOS Settings

[Director]

Hello!

I'm a complete newbie at configuring RAM Timings, and I was hoping to find a guide here that would tell me exactly what I need to set in my BIOS, but can't find one for my MB / RAM combo. Can anyone tell me the settings I need to change? I have upgraded my BIOS to v0606, (latest available through ASUS update).

Any help appreciated!

RAM is F3-12800CL7D-4GBRH, MB is an ASUS P7P55D Pro.

Thanks!

So sorry - my CPU is an "Intel Core i5 750 Lynnfield 2.66GHz LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Processor" does that change anything?

Thanks for the reply!

Only use CPU Clock Ratio 18 or 19, you may need a better CPU Cooler with 20.

Thank you

Thanks! I have set the CPU Clock Ratio to 18 for the time being.

My CPU cooler is an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, Rev 2.

Your cooler is fine for some OCing so 20 (or more) shouldn't be a problem. Good choice.
