if you can do 1100 cas4 with 2.3v they are d9gkx
if you can do 1200 cas5 with 2.1v they are d9gmh

Paired my Teams with the UD3P and the DDR2-1333 drive strength profile. The subtimings were very loose as set by auto in the BIOS (PL 11, tRFC 70 :eek:) but it's 32M stable, although I still needed almost 2.60V to do it.

My Geil kit, which was mediocre in my other boards, is really responding to the UD3P and its OC profiles :eek:

I have GMH that does 1100 CL4 at 2.26v and I have GKX that does 1200 (totally stable) at 1.98v.

Since u seem to be overclocking ur RAM good on ur UD3P, could U please post ur BIOS settings for on the above overclocks?

Thanks

I just tired some more RAM overclocking, but I still haven't been able to load Windows at 1400MHz or anything over 1333MHz. I got.

http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=481960

With 2.7v.

Like 1300MHz 5-5-5-15 works at 2.4v, but 1400MHz 5-5-5-15 at 2.7v doesn't? Even running the timings at 7-15-15-63 didn't help.

I think you will need a higher NB voltage to do that, 1.32v seems to be a bit low, but I'm only speculating.

I also own that board since last weekend, but I haven't been able to achieve anything worth mentioning up to now. One thing to note is that 600MHz is incredibly easy with this board. However, I guess I will need two more weeks to learn all the new feature of an Intel board... so many new options...

I have a new stable FSB of 1900MHz (475MHz) which means better memory speed of 950MHz, however I've had to increase vdimm for CAS4 and I don't know what to go for:

950MHz @

4-4-4-12 needs 2.125v
4-3-4-10 needs 2.15v
4-3-3-10 needs 2.175v

I currently have it at the tightest settings I can get without going to 2.2v, but I really don't want to lose these sticks of ram so maybe I should loosen the timings...but what a waste of D9 lol - I bought them to PERFORM! :D

I'v tried up to 1.6v :D, but I'v just learned the way I was told to set up the MCH Reference was wrong. So when I give it another go today I might have more luck :).

You say that like it is gospel. NO IC is created exactly equal. :shakes: The most surefire way to try and find out is by removing the heatspreader or googling the part number.

(double post I know, but I'm lazy heh) Try just leaving the MCH reference at auto, thats how it always works best for me, and to start with set NB and CPU clock skew both to delay by 100ps, this should keep you stable till around the 575\600 FSB realm, but of course theres no guarantees as everything behaves differently.

well thats my theory and even easier if you got a dfi board
all my d9gkx vol thungry and dont like dfi
i got naked team d9ghm that react like d9gkx
both are the same its luck of the draw how they behave

I don't know of any ram modules other than Cell Shock which use thermal paste, which is they only reason that I felt I could safely remove the heatspreaders. I know that there are ways to get the heatspreaders off, but my mate has an OCZ Reaper D9 kit and the heatspreaders are practically glued to the ICs. Not so sure about Ballistix.

safest way to remove them is heat the 3m tape they use is verry strong

I played a bit with my new kit that I got off ebay last November, took so long to be delivered...

So now I have 6GB of D9 on my UD3P:

I just got another Cell Shock kit from ebay, this time the PC6400 kit which uses D9GMH.

I'm gonna use 4x1GB with GKX and GMH together - might this cause problems? I haven't seen or heard of anyone using the different kinds of D9s together. If the GMH aren't so good, I'll buy a nice 2x2GB kit and be done lol. :D

alot of boards dont like 4 stix
myself i wont run anything lower than 1200mhz
on you 680i you better off going cas 4 the and as fast as it can go lol
some d9gmh should be labelled d9gkx lol so ... u gotta test em
01-19-2009, 12:29 AM
LennyRhys

Well I'll prob go back down to 450FSB for 4x1GB, so I'm looking for best timings at 900MHz no higher than 2.1v. My GKX can do 4-3-3-9 (tRAS at 8 is unstable) so best case scenario would be 900MHz 4-3-3-10 or thereabouts. I'll test the D9GMH on its own first, of course. :D :up:

i used to own 4 kits of the G.Skill 8500 HK, they all overclocks quite good, but not the very best overclocking ram or something like that.

1 lost long time ago, still have 1 kit with me and i still use it from time to time, another 2 kits are still working fine in my kid computer running CAS4-4-4 DDR1000 at 2.2v for sometime now.

this's the kit that i still having, it used to run to around 1350mhz (not fully stable, and with a high volts like 2.5v if i recall right) on that P35 board i can't locate any more pictures. the rest of my kits were able to run about same clock speed.

@Shiranui Gen-An,

if you can't ever see it able to run high i think it must be the ram itself that won't overclock high.
i used to see this 8500 HK runs over 1300 on the internet before many times, and some were from one of these forum, i think.
01-19-2009, 06:13 PM

Hey Raja

Im using crucial ballistic 2000 mgz kit. Yeah the nvidia 790i really pumps out bandwidth and latency, it will do about 575fsb if you really push hard, not easy to get there, but im totally stable where i am, and happy.

This board definitly out peforms the ep45t ud3p, that board has 0000000 bios support, and not so great peformance. So im pretty happy with this board till i go i7. This board is very hard to learn to overclock, took me some time to get it stable.

Well it was $400 when i came out 9 months ago, newegg is selling it for $329, i paid $220, and it had never been opened.

Hey guess it aint meant to be, i wouldnt say its GREAT board, but its pretty solid, like most boards it has its few issues but nothing major.

Damn you all! I've been searching up and down in forums and eBay sales to find some more D9GMH's or D9GKX's to go with my Orange Geils (under the Team's on that plate) and here you are with a dozen kits! :p

Really looking to buy some so if anyone has any for sale, drop me a PM :)

Actually, thats exactly half of my collection - only one stick from the kit is present. There are some question marks as well (like that Xtreem Dark). But yeh - should have some nice sticks.

I'll have some testing in near future and sell most of them after that.

I am sure I have dinner for at least four in sticks.Awesome meal there DonNiger. Check out MemoryC they still have a few sets of Teamgroups 1200 and 1300 in stock as I just grabbed some from them last week, very nice people and fast shipping to the US. I have both types and have benched 612fsb at 4-4-4-12 or 1390fsb at 5-5-5-15 at 2.45v for the 1300 and 2.55v for the 1200. Very fast DDR2.

You can still grab Cellshock kits for anyone having trouble finding them off memoryc, look under PC6400. The cheaper Cellshocks use Elpedia, so will probably max around 1000 - 1066MHz, while the more expensive Cellshocks use Micron ICs still.

I'm thinking of getting another Cell Shock kit but I dunno if it's worth it... I have 2x1 of GMH and 2x1 of GKX and getting another pair of GKX would be nice, however for similar money I could buy the G.Skill Black Pi kit and have 6GB instead of 4GB. Decisions, decisions. :shrug:

You know of somewhere else to get Cellshock besides MemoryC?

Pretty sure the 6400's are GMH though.

i i got both pc2-8500 16fd3 and 16fd5 they both do 1200 2.0-2.02v

Yes I have the PC2-8000 .16fd3. Seriously they are the best pair of D9GHM chips I have. They are rock solid at 2.28 volts anywhere from 1150-1366 5-5-5-15 PL8. They clock higher then my PC2-8500 .16fd3. Good luck with them. I am comparing them to my Team Xtreem pc2-6400 D9ghm, Corsair PC2-8500 V1.2

There's a 8000 C4 kit on ebay which I'm tempted to buy because, unlike the one I'm trying to sell, it's in new condition and it works; however I'm not sure whether to fork out on more D9 because I could get 4GB of G.Skill for roughly the same £. Maybe I should lol.

If you're talking Cell Shock, yes they are GMH and they aren't so good (well not my kit). I can do 950Mhz 4-3-3-10 2.175 with my GKX kits together, but I have to loosen that to 4-4-4-15 with the GKX/GMH combo. :down:

Some tests on air with my 2 kits
2x1GB Transcend Axe 800MHz @4-4-4-12 @1.8V and
2x1GB Transcend Axe 1200+ @5-5-5-15 @2.2V
both D9GMH.
Validation with 800MHz kit.
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=501612

and some memtests with the same kit and 2.2V set on BIOS
http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/5...293e5e6qm8.jpg

For 24/7 I`m using P5K-E wifi, and it cant overclock RAM too good, but i can boot 600FSB with 1200MHz RAM @4-4-4-12 with the second kit, and 5-4-4-10 with the first one, but on UD3P it seems second kit cant clock more then the first one.
Here are results with the second one
http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6863/...2887172iu1.jpg
2.3V BIOS, in dual channel its the same, but i didnt save a shot

and validation:http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=501519
No big diffrence cl5 or 6, on cl5 same as the first kit :). Tonight i will try for 1500MHz but not so easy with 10C ambient :D.

Nice collection you got there! :yepp:

I'm still learning on my board, but I think now I'm on the right track.
This screen was made when I tested for max SPi 1M, primary aim was of course sub 10s:

Goodram Pro900 2,65V on Bios
http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/121...na27vbipz3.jpg

This are max bootable settings for Pi. I think with some more V and clockgen/set FSB i can make a bit more :]
Goodram's make's 600Mhz Cl5 on 2,2V i can't more beacause this is max of my mobo :/
Crucial AE not testes on Cl5 but i think it will be the same or a bit better.

So are all these 2.0v Crucial Ballistix at Newegg newer non D9 variants? Just curious to know even though some people are reporting that the 2x2GB PC2-6400 are good clockers.

You mean the regular Ballistix with the yellow heat spreaders here?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820148212

Is the JKH newer than the GMH? Any advantages or disadvantages to them? I had some 2x1GB Corsair D9GMH that died but was looking for another set. Do they make D9GMH in 2x2GB? I'm looking for a cheap set of D9's preferably 2x2GB, anyone have any ideas or pointers on where I could pick some up? I'm in the USA. Thanks for the help and sorry for the 20 questions :D.

Recommendations for 2x2gb sets, Any 1066 2x2gb D9's

Well, My Crucial Ballistix Tracers 2x1gb 16fd3 :) have finally dumped!
Well, 1 stick did, the other is still good, but considering the reliability record of these wonderful hot rods it proably isnt to far behind the bad one. :)

Anyways was doing 4x1gb on asus p5k deluxe, would like to go 2x2gb now.

Guys, What are your recommendation for the best 2x2gb ddr2 dual channel sets currently out? I do overclock and heavy gaming. currently running the Crucials @ 1075mhz 55515.

Was looking at the Patroit Viper 8500 2x2gb, are there any 2x2gb d9's out there.

Thanks :)
02-09-2009, 06:19 PM

The only D9's in 2 x 2GB sticks are D9 JKH and they are not very good, they might do 500 - 550MHz CL5. The best 2 x 2GB sticks are the G.Skill 9600's, they do 600 MHz + at CL5. They are expensive though.

D9 GKX and GMH only come in 1GB stick form, due to the IC size. Each GMH/GKX IC is 64M and a double sided 1GB module has 16 IC's (64M x 16 = 1024M).

Alright guys I know I'm killing you with all these questions but please bear with me as I find myself being very fascinated with these D9GMH's all of the sudden.

So when hunting for the 2x1GB PC6400 or PC8500 Ballistix are all the 2.2v C4 versions D9GMH or other D9 variant? I noticed on Ebay there are some being sold that are advertised as lot 16FD3 which are presumably the golden sticks so to speak, however they're charging double compared to other Ballistix C4 2.2v D9's.

Basically what I'm asking is are the lot number 16FD3 all that important in hopefully getting a high binned part? Are all 2.2v C4 Ballistix D9GMH?

Thanks for you time.

the other stuff not worth it

1266 CL6 is about equivalent to 1066 CL5, so a set of Gskills, mushkin or corsair 8000 or 8500's will give you better bandwidth and latency, they can almost all do DDR2-1130 to 1160 CL5.

Interesting comparison there, very surprised to see CL6 @ 633 coming out on top. Were they the same Crucials at 571.4 MHz CL5? Whats the max totally stable speed they can do at CL5 on ~2.0 - 2.1v?
