time has come to overclock the PC i have now to squeeze more out of it before in about a years time going to an i7 chip, board and ddr3

Currently 8gb kingston value ram

2X 5870 Ati cards in crossfire

win 7 64bit

e8400 intel dual core @3.00ghz

as the KV ram @ 800mhz i have at the moment is a bit unreliable once the overclocking begins i'm looking into going some decent gamin ram like dominator etc

i'm unsure if my gigabyte ga-ep45-ds3p card can handle 1066 ram and if it doesn't will it work and be of any benifet

i'm lookin for about 3.5ghz to allow for detailed clouds whilst running fsx with a frame rate >25 with nearly full graphics

thanks

You can just buy some PC2-8500 sticks (1066) for $100

I CBF checking all my settings, but depending on the clock rate etc you might have to lower the ram timing anyway.

You could probably get away with the sticks you have now, if you go back to 4gb of ram.

My 1066 sticks are @ 450, 1:1 with 2T.

Thats for 4.1ghz with the mutli on 9x

My CPU has run this basically 24x7 for the last 3-4 years so if you have good cooling you should aim a bit higher than 3.5 IMO. You'll hit 4 easily.

4 sticks wont help your over clocking, should stick to 2.

apparently this mobo can use up to 1333 ram but i cant find any anywhere, its all ddr3 now :(

have 4 sticks of 2gb ram and the overclocking has not begun, doing more research before i begin.

the KVR are woeful at overclocking and i would rather just get better ram than spending ages messing with average hardware.

    • No no, sorry I think I made you misunderstand. I have this Tee as well as the lines that go from there. What I am missing is the banjo bolt that connects this line (OEM turbo oil supply line) To this hole, this line is mounted on the turbo and reaches around it so you have easy access the oil and water supply being rerouted to this dual banjo port in the front. like this
    • Nothing at the moment as previously there was a crappy braided line going from engine block directly to the turbo. I have bought a used OEM hardline for the turbo oil supply, which goes from the engine block to the marked hole. I don't have any of the OEM banjo bolts for oil except the one at the block.
    • This is the tee No specs on the page I grabbed it from, out of stock there anyway. But it kinda looks like a 1mm pitch. Would not think it's going to be 0.75mm pitch.
    • OK, I'm with you now. The outlet of the tee that is banjo'd into the block. Dunno what it is, will have a scratch around. The M11 question is.....messy. The minor diameter of an M11x1.0 male thread is 9.917mm. This is smaller than the minor diameter of a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 10.08mm). The M11 major is 11mm. That's smaller than the major on a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 0.4375" or 11.1mm) so an M11x1 bolt should pass on the major side. The pitch of a -24 thread is 1.058mm, which is really close to the M11x1, so it should go in at least several turns. I would expect M11x1 to be loose in a 7/16"-24 UNS, at least until enough thread are engaged to make it stop screwing in, if that can happen. Probably wouldn't happen on such a short bolt as you're looking at on the oil tee. Keep in mind that 7/16"-24 is NOT a standard/typical 7/16" thread. Standard is 20. That's the UNF or fine thread. -24 is really fine. I imagine that Garrett chose -24 for the turbo housing oil inlet to get the number of threads engaged up. I would not expect Nissan to have an imperial (UNF, etc) thread on that tee. I would expect it to be metric (if it is a bolt thread) or BSP (actually the Japanese equivalent of BSP) if it is a pipe thread. Given that it's a banjo, it's going to be a bolt thread. If it looks like an 11mm will go in there, then 11mm seems likely. It is very possible that some clown has stuffed that thread by trying to jam some imperial "near equivalent" into it, perhaps with those hoses of yours. Got verniers? Measure up the threads on the hoses.
