Got 4 sticks too
tested 2 sticks and got this:

tested the another 2 sticks and got this:

:D
But together cant test the 4 sticks xtreme as tested in pairs, just finishing tweak my WC setup to go to tests.
I can't seem to mine much higher than 1320. Link. I really think it's my motherboard.
Yes. Others would be interested.Quote:

Same 8500 as earlier, just pushed a littlebit more voltage :D
Ballistix 8500
Dfi Infinity P965-S
E6600
2.50v
3-3-3-9................470Mhz (aka DDR2 940)
4-4-4-12..............620Mhz (aka DDR2 1240)
Now....I have a dilema...I managed to strip one of the heatsinks down and of course that the chips are obviously rebranded "Ballistix". But I can't even find anything searching the code written on the chips (0734-18F). This isn't a matter of life and death or anything, because they are performing great so it doesn't matter if they are GMH or GKX. But I am curious though :D
Another curiosity - how do you guys think that a 2x512Mb kit of Crucial 8000 Fat Bodies clock compared to these? And..beeing only 1gig, would it have any speed penalties in SuperPi???
Monstru,
D9GHM :D
If you look very very eye detailed, you can see it's actually written on teh chips ;)
Ok, will look very very careful. These must be some pretty good binned GMH :D
they are , give them 2.75V, loosen up timings to 5_5_5_12 you will see them fly over 700 :DQuote:

That 2.75v sound pretty mean for my pour "almost virgin" Ballistix, do you think that my "150CFM Monster Ram Cooler" (powered by Delta Electronics) will keep them safe? (never used it before though, too much noise) :D For these tests I didn't use direct airflow on them (I have a 120mm fan blowing from the bottom of the mobo in this direction) but if I take the voltage up I have to put those mean monster fans on them....my poor ears.
Nice cooler but im rather sure nothing can keep them safe at 2.75v :D
I thought so...:(
What volts do you guys usually feed them max (just for benchies?) I personally am a little bit reluctant in using more than 2.6v, especially on D9GMH. On Fat Bodies yes, they need volts, they are the DDR2 BH-5, but the GMH and GKX have their safe limits, don't they?
Max ive used a few times is 2.60v for maybe 5 minutes each time and i think even that harms the dimms.
and that still counts as aircooling:p:Quote:

Weeeell....For extreme air bench-es I also have 2 120x120x38 Sunon fans for push/pull on the CPU h/s and some more other fans which I don't usually use. But these Deltas sound different because of their size.....It's a much higher pitched sound :)
Anyway, if it can't make it safe at 2.6 for benchies it's kinda useless :( I am not planning to give more than 2.50v - 2.55v to my dear Ballistix in these conditions, i don't want to burn them, because they are really good and because I don't bring Crucials from the States on a daily basis and I do not have them in the stores here.....
bleh... my bad, forgot about the high pitched whining of 40mm fans... too long ago that i used one
i wasnt 100% serious anyway about the getting used to the high noise of deltas anyway... they so loud thats one never really gets used to it.
@Monstru
D9GKX are going to die easy with 2,6 my Ballistix @ 1250 i fead them with 2,45 V
i had feed on kit Mashkin Xp2 6400 with 3Volt for Cl 3 and 10 min later the kit died :)
D9GMH are "listening" better than D9GKX on Volt but same think here not more than 2,3 for 24/7
now i have 1100Mhz Cl4 3-3-3 2T with 2,275Volt with more than one month Uptime :)
Is it stable with orthos blend test ?Quote:

E6600 3Ghz @1.29v
DDR2 1150 5-4-4-4 @2.1v
Seeing all these 40mm delta's just creeps me... :p:
so D9GMHs are still better than D9GKXs?:confused:Quote:

For me D9GKX has worked better than the numerous D9GMHs i've tried.
good question, have'nt tried, last night upped itQuote:

At least one of my Ballistix 8500 sticks just died. Never ran it above 2.15v. Bleah.
