GA-P35-DQ6 & OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Reaper CL4 4GB

Hi,
I have a GA-P35-DQ6 motherboard and am thinking of getting:
OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Reaper CL4 4GB http://www.ocztechnology.com/product...l4_4gb_edition

I've heard that this motherboard has issues with RAM like this right, and am kinda unsure how to set the motherboard BIOS voltages to suit it (2.1v stock voltage it seems). After looking at the sticky topics i'm still a bit unsure, as I thought I'd just need to up the default ddr2 voltage to the 0.3V overvoltage, yet keep on hearing about the need to up the MCH too? Do both need to be upped?

MCH Core may need to be increased, not sesessarally.
Run memtest86+ for 6+ passes afeter installing the new memory before booting windows, then you can run Prime95/Orthos/OCCT stress to verify everything is set up correctly.

I would guess that you will likely need +0.15-0.25 MCH, and +0.2-0.3 Ram voltage to be set.

If you need more help let us know once you get setup and do some initial testing
