What ram to use to Overclock Opteron 165 ?

What ram to use to Overclock Opteron 165 ?

Iam just wondering if pc 3200 with 4000mhz with Low Latency or DDR
4000, 5000 mhz should be used for an Amd Opteron 165 system.

I want to overclock. Is the FSb more important than low latencys. The
ram somone recomended is some :

MUSHKIN XP Samsung UCCC PC4000 2GB Kit (2x1024Mb) 2048Mb XP4000
3-4-3-8 eXtreme Performance 991483

This ram can easily get 250mhz FSB and probalby 300 even

I myself was looking at:

OCZ Platinum PC3200 2Gb Kit 2-3-2-5 (2x1024MB/2048) 400MHz
OCZ4002048ELDCPE-K

Only concidering this ram becuase i was always tld LOW Latency is the
best thing for an AMD system. Has this changed ?

Any help would be grea. Just getting my new system together.

Thanks.

Yes and no. By increasing the latency from CL2 to CL3, the clock speed can
be increased dramatically past DDR400 (PC3200), resulting in higher overall
performance.

Most games are limited by the video card at the resolutions we want to play
at. Unless you do a lot of video encoding, overclocking the CPU is not
necessary; you'd just be creating extra heat and using extra power.
