TFW you can't overclock your system ram in linux but only through bios
>>107567116TWF anons forget how a computer works
When would you ever need to overclock in the modern day? Everything is already so fast now
>>107567116wow, no fucking way
>>107567116>your system ramAre you sure you really want to shorten the lifespan of such a valuable piece of hardware?
>>107567116Depends on the chipset. Sometimes you can.
>>107568322There's usually still like 5% left on the table in the worst case, more if you throw more power at it or do the reverse and get the same performance and lower power usage. But yeah, no 30% overclocks anymore, literally jumping SKUs by just tweaking.
>>107568354OP's a Linux fag wanting to OC from OS, probably running a DDR2 based ThinkPad, that silicon is worthless.
>>107567116Why the hell would you want to overclock memory from inside a real OS? Do you know what malfunctioning RAM does to your filesystem? Overclock in the BIOS and run memtest+ for at least a full pass.
real time ram overclocking isnt a thing. you have to redo memory training each time you adjust timings. for example how the fuck do you adjust trefi/trfc in real time? you cant. you have to make the ram discharge and recharge.
>>107569525It is for DDR2 hardware.
