^^not neccessarily(sp?lol)^^
i run mine up to 450+mhz at 4-4-4-12-22-2T, but the voltage is 2.1 instead of the factory spec of 5-5-5-18-23-2T @1.8 (or 1.9 or whatever). it is factory tested at that voltage (2.1) @ 400mhz with those timings.
be careful going over the rated voltage for your ram.
the only thing that will mess up your ram is overvolting it.
running it as fast as it is able to run will not harm it at all.
also, blackhawk:
that is the general principle.
if you raise your fsb and it overclocks your ram past its max speed, you will have to set a divider to stabilize it.
a lot of people run c2ds on a 1:1 divider (especially the 6300 and 6400) as they are able to reach such high fsb that some ram cannot match it unless it is 1:1. just depends on your ram.
from what i have read and seen, g skill seems to be the best for running with high overclocks, using a divider other than 1:1.
