I have read so many suggestions concerning OC, I am now a little confused. I have an Asus P5Q SE Plus MB, QX6700 CPU and Corsairs DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) memory. I want to know which is best way to OC to 3.2. Should I set CPU multiplier to 8 and FSB to 400 or set multiplier to 10 and FSB to 320? In the first instance CPU-Z reports FSB DRAM 1:1. In second instance CPU-Z report FSB DRAM 4:5. Which is more efficient?

I would appreciate any suggestions and help.
