    What rates are everyone using? I've heard 800/1100 is pretty popular, but it doesn't seems to work.

    Doesn't matter what everyone else is doing. It's what works for your computer. Every chip isn't made exactly identical so you just have to experiment.

    In general 800/1100 seems to work, but doesn't mean everyone.

    You probably shouldn't anyways. Diminishing returns for the risk involved.
