G.SKILL 2GBHZ - First impressions ...

[S&M]

so far so good - just got them today ...

going to run some 32mb pi now ...

using stock cooler so can't test too much higher ...

Why can't you test higher? Put the cpu on a lower multiplier.

[S&M]

lower multi is 10 - i try only "full" multies ... 9,10,11 not 10.5 etc....

and i dont think the ram can do 300mhz ....

[Dave_Sz]

What????
I'm sure that if you run 273 with a 8x multi it will generate less heat than 273 with a 11 multi.

what have multis got to do with your ram
if you want to test the RAM lower the multi to get a cpu bottleneck out of the question

[S&M]

sorry - i need to explain myself better ....

my cpu max out at 3ghz on air.
I wanna reach the max stable performance for my pc.

running 300X10 is not possible IMO ... the ram can't handle it ...
so next multi is 11 ...

im not using multi like X.5 coz then the ram won't run 1:1 ....

[S&M]

and new results -

280X11 , spi 16mb stable - don't have more time to test - will test further tommorow -

so far i am very very happy ...

btw - all was done with 2.7V set in bios ....

Oh lord, look, put the cpu mutli at 9 or 8, and see how far the memory goes. When you see how high it goes, you can figure out what memory dividers you can use to have both the cpu and ram as high as possible. There's no point of giving us first impressions if you aren;t even trying to max out the ram. Ram running 1:1 doesn't mean jack when it comes to performance.

Listen to Dave_Sz you want to find out how far your ram can go check with memtest 86 to see if it is stable or if you get errors

Thank you.
