Well...as I've mentioned it...I'm planning on getting the PC3500 memory from Corsair...but now somewhat confussed. I don't know if the OCZ EL DDR PC-3500 Memory is the better choice. It also has 4.5ns memory instead of 5ns on the Corsair 3500. I've read reviews on the OCZ getting to 490 on normal and max timings...but at 2.8 volts! The only problem is if its compatible with this board (A7N8X Deluxe)...like will it go high as it says. So does anyone have this memory with this board, if so...whats the norm on o/c the FSB w/ the 1002.001?
Also...sysfailure, or anybody, what is one of the stablier FSB you have with your memory....and the most voltage of 2.8v ;)
Currently the "norm" for FSB overclocking A7N8X seems to be between 185 MHz and 210 MHz or so. Few have gone higher.Quote:

I'm running a 256MB stick of Corsair XMS3500 with an A7N8X (non-deluxe). I've had very good results, right now I am running at 213mhz FSB with 2-2-4-2 memory timing at 2.8V. It is stable at 2-2-6-2 up to 225mhz, and usable at 233mhz. It posts at 236.Quote:

I posted some benchmarks in this thread
hi there
i own a a7n8x deluxe with 2*256 Mo pc3200 corsair with a 2600 (fsb 333)
i'm not o/c addicted at all, but just want the best of this stuff
could u give me the right optimum and stable settings plz ...
i've read this topic, but english is not my mother's tongue, i miss many things
i don't get ur (2-2-6-2 for exemple) mem settings, the order seems different on the asus bios (i'm actually on the G one)
i've tried to adjust my settings, but the results in sandra pro are far from urs
thx for ur time & patience
;)
You shall run your memory in Sync mode, nothing else. And I think the order in the Asus BIOS is 6-2-2-CAS2.Quote:

@ 2.8v you should be able to max the northbridge before your memory (because the northbridge needs more voltage).Quote:

On my personal setup, if I want to use audio I have to keep it @ 200mhz fsb. And I can hit that @ stock voltage if I want.
hi guys,
i'm also looking on buying some new ram tomorrow my pc2700 samsungs is not cutting it anymore, I'm really thinking on getting the corsair pc3500, but will 256m be enough for gaming or would it be a whole diffirence with 512m,
I just see that the top benchmarks at 3dmark, all the top ones only use 256m sticks,
any suggestions would be apreciated, thanks:rolleyes:
edit: also guys I try the new mbm5 and it gives me some below zero are they accurate, I know I'm below zero but haven't put a probe on the processor to check actual temps, tnx
As I have posted many time in other threads, I'm running 3 sticks 256-256-512(in channel 3 which is farthest from CPU) with this A7N8X and got a 3dMark of 18,150 published with no volt modding.
Hello I got some problems here :(
#1 :) I can get 200 system bus, with 10 multi beta bios let's you ajust unlocked :) but I can't get my xms 3500 memory to post unless I put it down to 75% that means in single channel mode I only got 150@ c2-2-2 5-?-? 2100 mb's of memory bandwidth :(
#2 I can get 180 in sync C2.5-2-2 8-?-? but as soon as I raise the fsb I conk out.
seems like alot of ppl are having a problem with corsair xms memory with this board :(
so I have a question if I got 2100 mb/s now how much will I have with a second stick in dual channel mode?
@ async 150 c2-2-2 5-1-1 sinceI already have one:( and I already ordered the second one i'm sort of stuck unless I can find someone that needs the corsair mem for a P4 system
But if I can get myself 3200 mb/s in dual channel mode it might be worth it anyone ever try running async downwards from the fsb?
BTW the new beta bios supports 10x and xp 2400 without unlocking the processor 1002.001 lol

hi there, sorry but duel won't help that much, amd doesn't take advantage of the duel setup that much, are you sure you try everything with the memory?
LOL...its Dual! :stick: (I think...if were talking about the Nforce2 Dual option)Quote:

But if the memory is smaller and your going at a fraction of the bus speed maybe it will work anyone tried using pc 2100 memory,
and a 200 fsb with a dual option ? let me know maybe there we will be able to take advantage of the dual and forget all this expensive memory LOL of course this will only work with a higher bus speed.
terramir
it works, but you dont get optimal bandwith, but yes, it works "ok" heh

ok I'm screwed xp 2400, 10.0x 200Mhz and two sticks of xms 3500 memory 512 mb each :( one the one I had before XMS 3500 c2 v1.1 the one I ordered before I got this board man what a mistake XMS 3502 c2 v1.1
ok I can only run this if I have the memory set to 66% 133 mhz and I end up with 2400 mb/s and 2160 or something :( ok this suc**, forget xms 3500 on this board or I'm doing something terribly wrong someone tell me guys also any succesful runs with 200 in sync ????? which memory ?
terramir
Horrendously big (in size) pic. Sorry... will fix later.
Getting ready for pelt on chipset, and cpu super cooling.

LOL...I'm assuming that's not a bloody mess, but something you are doing intentionally. Shows how much I don't know.
Beginning to look like his Epox board he showed b4.....
Minty!!!!!:toast:
Intentional ;) Best protection for the mobo if you ask me.
A: You can see it.
B: You can peel it off if you fry it (although I've sent 2 boards back to newegg like this and they've taken them).
C: You can see for sure what stuff you're protecting and what you're not. I noticed this was a problem w/ silicone. I would miss certain spots or not see it.
More pics (and testing) today.
blood?
I would like to know to protect mine too;)
if its the above, i got an extra friend that right know don't need:slash:
MAN !! WHAT HAVE YOU KILLED ?!!? So much Blood !! You are a Freddy Krueger !! I will tell do the FBI !!
Right now I'm @ 190mhz fsb, just seeing what my temps are... I'm @ -2.8C and I've been Prime95'ing for an hour. That is chipset temps (back of mobo probe taped to mobo).
Not really sure what your problem is. I can run 200 in synch, yes. Well actually right now I'm having problems of my own, but it's not like yours.Quote:

XMS 3500 should be able to handle 200mhz no prob. Try the modules in another board individually and make sure each stick of ram is performing properly. If they aren't then get replacements :)
hey sysfailure you live in la lol because I don't have another board that can take 200 fsb or ddr memory at the moment LOL
