Recommended specs for starting at 4GHz: CPU-NB voltage, CPU voltage, and necessary adjustments.
Thanks ahead!
Just upvolting RAM is not going to produce higher frequency or lower Cl by itself but may help you when you lower it to keep stable, that's all.
In any case, it's best to keep as low voltage as possible without compromising stability but may prove tricky and require a lot of fiddling and testing. Nobody can tell you what settings and results you'll get.
Is this about increasing the clock speed? Set the multiplier to 20 and adjust the voltage as necessary for stability. To keep it running at 4GHz continuously, disable turbo and power-saving features.
Already completed that... increased multiplier to 20, needed to raise CPU voltage to 1.244 to load Windows, switched off quiet and cool and enabled turbo boost....game froze after 15 minutes...observed ram timings on three of the four sticks were 10 and 11 instead of 9.
After initiating OC it ceases to act like "e" and functions normally, which means you'll likely require a Vid of 1.325v to stabilize.

Vid, what is the starting voltage for the CPU?
Well, the higher the voltage I can apply to the DRAM, the less my CL will fluctuate (obviously, I aim for the minimum possible). Right now the chip runs at 1.344 and the DRAM at 1.60, but it's still a bit high. I'm testing P95 and didn't encounter any core errors.
Any adjustments needed from the CPU side? I noticed Tempin1 was around 48°C during idle before I began testing... it went up to 59°C.
