How to overclocking memory?

How to overclock memory and what does it do of difference? I got a 128MB DDR.

You OC your RAM just like any other hardware property. I give you this lack of description because since you ask about RAM only, i figure you understand how to OC other hardware.

But its the same way as other hardware. Your RAM runs at a speed it increases when you cool it and raise its frequency.

The only hardware I know to over clock is the CPU and in my BIOS I just put more CPU Clock.

Well you should have a thorough understanding of CPU overclocking before you tackle RAM overclocking.

RAM overclocking requires adjusting the timings, loosening them up and at the same time raising the Frequency and even the Dimm voltage is generally required.

There's a certain point you reach where loosening the timings will give you no gain even when you add more MHz behind the RAM. You gotta find the 'sweet spot' if you will of the tightest timings and highest frequency for the best transfer.

RAM generally doesn't get too hot, so if you don't have heatspreaders I wouldn't worry about rushing out to by one. RAM won't get hot unless you're pumping some major voltage through it and really high clock speeds.

Ok, soo if I want my RAM to be a 2700, which is a 2100. Is there a way with overclocking?
