Hi,
I was thinking if upgrading the RAM could also boost your CPU performance.
My core i5 is now running at 3.960 GHz and it's stable, but my Corsair XMS3 RAM doesn’t handle even the 800MHz in the BIOS—it causes instability and a blue page.
I ended up choosing four 2GB sticks at 722MHz instead.
Please see the CPU-Z pages I shared.
Thanks for your feedback!

Smaller DRAM could boost speed slightly, but the improvement won't be significant
