Alright Thanks
I'll set the trfc to 28, but any lower PL and it won't post.
EDIT: I change that one down to 28, but it didn't help much? I tried lowering some more, but it froze.

Alright I'll give that a go, also with the 5-5-5-15-4-28, what timing is the 4?
Thanks
EDIT: I got PL 7 now :)

PL7 isn't that important. Its when you have to go above PL8 you want to crank NB voltage. You will find you can keep PL7 maybe to around 425-440FSB, but after that for any real degree of stability you have to move to PL8 I've found on any P45.
at 500fsb+ the UD3 boards with the A3 revision P45 can run two notches lower than the A2 when using 1:1 divider (pl8)instead of pl9.but on the other dividers Shiranui gen-an is right at 500 fsb using 5:6 its still pl8(at least thats as low as i could get) with the p45 chipset.
On asus P45 boards you can only use PL7 on the 3:4 and lower divider, meaning at 500FSB your ram would be at 666 MHz. P45 is not P35, you can't say because your P35 does a certain PL at a given FSB/divider a P45 can.
On a UD3P you should be able to set PL7 on say 4:5 or maybe even 5:6 (they can run PL8 on 1:1) but it would take more vNB to do it, and the performance on the UD3P's from what Ive seen is about one PL higher than Asus boards, such that Asus PL8 = Giga PL9.
im not saying that because my p35 can run a certain pl that my p45 can.did you read the previous post?i was just pointing out my observation concerning the p45 performance level settings.i never said anything about p35.
I think Cryptik was referring to zsamz's post, though I could be mistaken.
I was referring to what zsamz said not you, I should have quoted him. I just meant that due to the inherent differences between the two chipsets, you cant set a P45 to the same FSB/PL settings as a P35, on any given divider, a P35 will be able to run a lower PL.
What you can set on a P45 depends on the bios and chipset revision, and how much vNB you are prepared to give it.
Its just a matter of playing around with your gear. I can run PL7 at 480 FSB / 640 MHz (3:4) without any trouble, and PL6 at 434FSB/651 MHz (2:3).
I could go higher, so if my board allowed stable ram speeds of 666MHz I'd guess it wouldn't have issues with PL7 at 500 FSB. The UT/DK P45's/UD3P's do clock ram better than my M2F so 500FSB PL7 / 666 MHz stable may well be a possibility on those boards. Someone try it :D
480 FSB / 640 MHz CL5, PL7, Clock Twister Moderate

zsamz_ is right here! :yepp:
I didn't want to share this cause it needs some tweaking, but I thought you should see it for yourself:

I saw 10k across the board at FSB 480MHz but my CPU wasn't up to it at the volts I was comfortable with giving it and it crashed before I could take a screenshot. I will try to do this again next week with one of my new kits.
the statement ket made that max pl7 was @ 440 was :down:
just cause a user cant do it dont mean someone else cant;)
took me just a few min to get to 450
i think bois not mature on p45 but 1 day it will be able to do it
so far the best board i seen is the ut p45 it has as good bandwith as the ut p35
This is the max Cl4 timings running PL8. This is a pair of Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500. Im currently testing PL9 and already got them to 1100:)

I tihnk I know why I suddenly couldnt get 500FSB stable anymore, I was on PL6!
Im now gonna move it down to 7 and have another go at getting some nive numbers on my RAM
I can get 10k+ across the board with PL8 @ 480FSB as well, so the point is still irrelivent. PL8 is better than PL7 on P45, same performance, higher FSB possibilities, less voltage.
and zsamz, theres plenty of ppl who posted before me to verify what I already said. You seem to completely lack the comprehension of not all hardware is created equal and some will be better than others, but on average P45 = PL8 for FSB over 440 or so.
Just a fun run for a "2Ghz Pi Challenge" contest at another forum. I know subtimings could be tweaked quite a bit, but this was just a quick comparison between 3-2-2-1 and 4-4-4-12 @ 1000mhz :lol:
Edit: durr...forgot to say this was with a 1GB kit of Buffalo Firestix D9GKX confirmed :D

Yeah, with my Biostar, (its the only board, and the only set of RAM I have, :P)
I am now running at PL7 CAS5 at 1000mhz,
Heres an everest, (with all the programs running in the background and playing music.......
(attached)
Any tips to improve it?
Im a complete novice when it comes to memory overclocking, (or overclocking at all for that matter)
But memory overclocking is really cool, I would love to get to know how to do it WELL,
George
Now now, no need to argue, you both have your respective views, and both of you can get high bandwidth numbers, so instead of argueing, teach me how to!
I just upped the FSB to 420, and gained atleast 100 on copy read and write,
Would it be better to run it as it is, or at 480 FSb and 960mhz RAM?
Although, im trying to not have too high and multi, so I actually use the speedstep tech, might aswell save power when its not being used
Thanks
Just wondering, can anyone here get 800MHz 3-3-3-9 @ 2.3v?
Mine didn't even post at those volts :(
I think its my mobo, since I have 3 D9GMH kits, all of which can't do Cas 3 and have a hard time doing Cas 4.

monday i will try other bench, now my mobo is in RMA (bios suck i suppose... :shakes: )
Hi people! I'm having a really great problem. One of my Crucial Ballistix .16FD5 died, so I'm running right now only 1Gb of it.
I was hoping if you can tell me a really nice and capable of Oc 2x2GB mems kits so I can continue doing my thinks and also Oc them.
Returning with the dead CB, what should I do? Send it to the RMA? Is a really pity but, I dont know if they are going to give me another .16FD5... I live in Argentina, so that is the big problem... huge taxes only for a memory :P... So, do you think that they can replace my dead memory with another equal?
Thanks guys! Sorry if I been abscent and havent participate a lot here, job and university is taking my life away xD

cdawall, what kind of RAM have you got (I know they're D9DCD Fat Bodies, but further details?) and would you consider selling? I need to add to my FB collection :D
And what can they do at 3-2-2-1?

What RAM was that? Voltages? 3-3-3 is too loose for me :D
Make, model, price ( :D ) and what they can do at 3-2-2-1 @ whatever voltage please :D
I have two sets of Ballitstixs Tracers. One set love 3-3-3-9-1T. They will run that at 800Mhz with 2.2v. Can get them up to 850Mhz with 2.35v. They don't really like running 1200 and up. The other set doesn't like T1 but will run 3-3-3-9-T2 at 2.3v. Though, the second set will run 1200 5-5-5-15 with 2.15v. I think the first set are GMH and the second might be GKX. Just a guess, since all the IC say are "ballistix" on them. Anyone know how to read the -18F and -17F that's on the ICs, as to tell what IC they are?
This doesn't seem to help but maybe there's more info on the ICs CLICK
2x256MB? Shame :D Let me know anyway, I want them more for the sentimental value.

I just got in a kit of 2x1GB Ballistix 8500 16FD3 from eBay today, testing at 600MHz 5-5-5-15 on the 5:6 divider with 2.00V BIOS set. One hour+ in Memtest 86+ 2.10 and no errors :up:
Makes me hate my Cellshocks. They need 2.28v to be stable @ 1200MHz. Maybe this set is just one of the GKX kits that loves voltage.
Nope I have the 8000C4 kit.
my cellshock pc8000 pass 1 hour of memtest @ 1200mhz 5-5-5-15 with 1.92 volt.
i don't have any screen, but when my mobo return from RMA i will make some other test and post some screen. :)
@ket: biostar tpower i45 with cellshock pc8000 suck...
my cellshock on this mobo can't reach 1250mhz with very high voltage and timings...
on p5q they don't do better than 1050mhz with 2.4volt :rofl:
asus suck...
@all: someone of you know what chip is mounted on patriot viper pc9600 ELKN Nvidia edition???
thx
Could someone tell me why when I set 1T in the BIOS when it loads Windows it always says 2T? It did it on my P5E and it also does it on my UD3P. So WTF am I doing wrong?
Thanks
I guess that the chipsets don't support it for DDR2, I have never seen it working on an Intel DDR2 board. The only boards I know of that can do 1T command rate are those based on NVidia's chipsets and ATI's RD600.
Oh and by the way, it's not even a real 1T command rate, it's correctly called 1N and 2N, I don't know the difference but that's what I was told. :(
Strange they are usually good sticks. Perhaps try another board.
When you set 1.92v BIOS what is the real voltage measured with a DMM? Asus boards don't all suck, my Cellshock kits all do DDR2-1200 @ 1.99v real (measured at slot with DMM) and they are 32M stable at DDR2-1302 @ 2.24v on the M2F and P5Q-Deluxe. P5Q-Pro is pretty low end, I wouldnt expect great things from it.
I still have to sort the sticks myself and make matched pairs.
With CellShock @ 2.3V...

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/2699/3331v.jpg
So you've measured with a DMM? Eastytune6 isn't real voltage. There is definitely an issue with your board, but the vanilla P5Q's/P5Q-Pro's etc aren't great ram clockers.
P5Q-Deluxe is much better from what I've seen, but they are not as good at clocking ram as the EP45 or UD3P.
EDIT - what happened to your EP45?
what a pity. probably the gigabyte p45 extreme is ht best p45 board imo.
still waiting for the board to come back...clock it to death man ;)
Well thats very nice ram in that case. The only board i have used that has a real voltage = set voltage is my M2F. Nice to see gigabyte have the same thing I'm getting fed up with boards over/under shooting set voltages.
Pity it died, I hope your replacement goes well. Was the bios damaged in a flashing procedure or did it just die of its own accord?
just a question: to reach high freq (doesn't mean cas latency, but obviously is cas5 or more) which of these is better?
kit pc9200/higher with gkx or pc8500/9200 with gmh?
dunno why, but i've no so much feeling with gkx...maybe the new ud3r could help...
it's not you, it's your board :P
at high freq i think it all depends on how good are ram instead of board :)

Managed this with my Team Xtreem D9GMH, any suggestions to get them over 11k read? Its what I'm aiming for.
set cas5 and increase the fsb :yepp:
edit: 1300 cas4 with what vdim???
3 char
which is your kit? pc10400? on which board? let me know i'm really curious.Quote:
any suggestions to get them over 11k read?
to reach and overcome 11k read you have to increase fsb. at least 550+ ;)
i've done 11k with dfi p35 ut and ram 1200 cas4 with fsb 600 :D
PC6400C4/P5Q-Dlx AFAIK

Seems I scored again, testing my new Patriot 8500 5-5-5-9 D9GKX kit and it seems to only need 2.08V or so for 600MHz C5.
OJ0 was Right, Team Xtreem PC2-6400C4 on a P5Q Deluxe.
This set hates cas 5, cant even get 1300 5-5-5-5, but can do 1300 4-4-4-3 @ 2.66v.
On a DFI P35. ;) Still, nice result.Quote:
@chaps: 11K+ , cellshock pc8000 cas4
If i use higher FSB my bandwidth decreases, can only run PL9 at 550+. Will test over 500 PL8 later today and see where that takes me. :)Quote:
i need high fsb for 11k
i can do it around 508fsb you will need around 520-530 on p45
Anyone know if theres a bandwidth record for P45 chipsets?
on dfi ut p35 i only need 505fsb to hit 11k;)
I have the exact same issue with my TXs. I've suicided 600MHz C3 but can't do 668MHz C5. These sticks are rated at C4 and that seems to be where they're happiest.
Funny enough, my sticks used to be able to do 1333 C5 when Goddy had them, @ 2.44v though. :(
Maybe its just the P5Q Deluxe i have that doesn't like my Rams.
