Memory Overclocking worth?
Ever think of overclocking your memory. Well just in case you were curious it can be done. But in the long run what it will do is cost you in loosing computer stability and you can wear your parts prematurely causing ongoing system crashes. The GPU can recover from a glitch but not the RAM. The overall performance is minimal and the cost is just not worth it. So if you think you might want to do it for gaming. Don't waste your time and spend the money on better performance hardware.
