I'm looking into this overclocking idea. It seems fine to apply an XMP profile for my RAM, then just tweak the timings afterward. I wonder if that's safe since it's already working well for me, while manually adjusting timings isn't. It feels a bit odd. I've configured the XMP profile (2x16GB Corsair LPX 3600 C18) with settings like 18-22-22-42-64 and then changed the timings to 16-17-17-36-56 at 1.4V. Everything is running stably in OCCT and TM5. Is this approach valid?

It looks promising. I'll check if a straight 16-16-16 run is feasible with a slight voltage increase. If it feels shaky, I'll adjust the Trc and Trfc slightly and set the command rate to 2T.
