ASUS P6t

ASUS state on their website that the P6T mother board can handle the following ram "Triple-Channel DDR3 2000(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1800(O.C.) / 1600(O.C.) / 1333 / 1066 support". Now I'm guessing that the O.C stands for Overclocking... what does this entail? will i be able to put 1800mghz ram into the motherboard and it will recognise it and run(plug and play type of thing) or will I have to manually overclock it in the bios? and by overclocking do they mean I will have to overclock the cpu (i7 920)?
 
You will have to overclock it to get it to 1800mhz. And I do believe you would have to OC the cpu as well, but don't quote me.

oh ok, so if i do put the 1800mhz sticks in will they still work (at a slower pace)... sorry for the quote :P

yes of course, they will work. but only at the slowest supported non O.C Speed. in your case they will run at 1333mhz. I think your board has an unlinked overclocking mode. that means you can raise the RAM speed or CPU FSB individually. normally when you raise one it raises the other as well.
