Btw, I just aimed for 285mhz @ 2,7v in first shot, so there could be more in these sticks. :)

actually, can you do me a favor?
on the end of the part number for your ballistix, there should be a short thing like .16TD, is this what yours says?

nice clocks though.. good to see KABYE pulling through, the stepping seems cuirously similar to the opterons ;)

Mine says 16TD aswell, worth to mention tho, it's two stick bought at the same time, not a dual kit :rolleyes:

Thank you, very nice resualt yourself :woot: I think mine could do around the same, but I like the temps that comes with 2,7v :banana:

Yeah it's fine.. you inspired me to swap in my 2x 1GB Crucial Ballistix PC4000 Tracers to test on my opteron 146 :)

eva2000: I'm glad too hear that. :)

Perhaps I should try 3-3-2-0, anyone think what would be possible?

ok, thanks
and dual kits are over-rated ;)

if you should try anything, try 2.5-2-2 :toast:

At 285mhz with 2,7v :slobber: I doubt that :D ;)

yeah, you'll have to drop down the mhz a bit.. but personally, i think 2.5-2-2 is around micron's sweet spot. depending on your sticks, 2.5-3-2 or 2.5-2-3 may be a bit more optimal :D

At my current mhz and voltage lowering Tcl, Trcd or Trp and my rig will hang while booting.
But lowering Trfc to 12 seems to be working flawless.

what happens if you relax Twtr.. you're one of two people i know of with micron 1gb sticks that are running high mhz at 1 ;)

so i guess i'm lucky? :eek: i'll try - right away.

upping Twtr to 2 didn't help on lowering any of these Tcl, Trcd or Trp, did even try upping Trc to 12 & Trfc to 19. 3-3-3-0 seems to be the tightest i can run 285 at 2,7v.

same timings and voltage for the ballistix as for 285mhz, tho i wonder why the time is 15sec slower than before :confused: (look in first post)
