Question about Kingston DDR2 Hyper-X 1066 Memory.

I need to know the proper clocking settings to set my memory sticks in BIOS.
these are the choices I am given:
400
533
800
1067

My DDR2 Hyper-X series memory sticks by the company Kingston, can MAX at 1066 Mhz.
But I don't know the proper clock settings & volts for it.

Can someone help and post a proper clock setting so I can set my memory
to do 1066.?

I want to get the full potential of my memory sticks.
I have a Pair of these:

and a Pair of these:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820104060

Which makes a total of 8 gigs of DDR2 Ram installed.

Thank you.

I believe they require 2.2vdim to run at 5 5 5 15, don't count me on it though I'm jus remembering off the otp of my head wiithout googling :P try using cpuz and check the SPD section.

I believe thats wrong, because these Hyper-X DDR's is not suppose
to go above 2 volts as said by Kingston Company.
and you posted 2.2vdim.

Sorry, but im not going to go configure off CPU-Z.
This is why I asked for an experienced person to post the info.

last thing I need now is to blow my DDR's

I appreciate the gesture.
thanks.

Both those kits are only rated for 1066 @ 7-7-7-20 timings, you are showing 5-5-5-15 timings in your rig specs so I doubt you will get 1066 out of them with those timings.

they're also spec'd at 2.0v so 2.1-2.2 might help with the timings
