I've tried it out and RAM speed didn't affect me at all but I was running 233MHz with timings 2-2-2-5 most of the time. With these settings pretty much only CPU speed makes differences to the speed. CPU is aircooled with Big Typhoon + AS5 and at 1.45v for 2.8GHz and IHS on the CPU is removed.
What is most interesting is how the speed is increased pretty much linear with overclocked cpu amount. If only this applied to PC games as well.
