ah I see, perhaps I am thinking of older sockets. I could of swore I read something that since the memory controller is integrated onto the cpu, when the memory is overclocked it increases voltages used and increases the bus speed. Or is it the memory that gets overclocked if you overclock the cpu on sandy bridge?

I think I need to dig up that old anandtech article on sandy bridge before I continue making a fool of myself lol :P

thanks for the correction though
