Yupyup. Errors are bad. I would back them down so you don't get errors. P4s don't really care about latency all that much anyway. They're more bandwidth hungry.

I wouldn't bother pushing more volts through it, just run them at the SPD settings. Unless you've purchased RAM specifically for overclocking, you're unlikely to get much more than a few Mhz out of them. I've had stuff that wouldn't do ONE MHZ over specification without crashing, lol. And that was CORSAIR, a major name-brand!! Even if you could get them down that far, I doubt it would be worth it.

If you want a happy P4, just feed it more bandwidth and to heck with the latency.
