what is this saying? run memtest test#5 with 10 successful passes? so, don't worry about running the other tests while trying to lower subtimings?Quote:

Sorry, little typo there. Yes, I mean test#5 is really the fastest test to use in memtest that will show you the errors the quickest.Quote:

The only thing different on my setup is my "performance level" is on 6 in memset by default, and If I try to lower it to 4 like in your screenshot, instant lockup.
I read the performance level is changed depending on what you have your transaction booster setting at in the BIOS?
Was yours at 4, or did you change it?
Thanks
I cannot change that in the bios settings on the IP35 Pro, it was set at 4 in Memset.Quote:

itl be paired with a e2160 and p5k-pro. heres hoping the e2160 doesnt have low fsb wall:p:
hi there i have one question:
i have asus maximus formula 1004 with G.Skill F2-8000CL5D-4GBPQ but when i try to set fsb higher of 266 cause error on goldmemory test with other memory not have this is problem...i have tried many setting fsb voltage 1.5 nb 1.6 trfc high 60 80...but after 40min the mem cause error... Any of you know how I can resolve? thanks very much
Try each dimm seperately to test and see if it gives errors then ... could be a DOA....
yes i try but identical error... ok i find the problem is PL it's crazy only way to work at 400fsb(1600) is at disable 7 on bios is crazy poor very poor performance not good memory... :(((
Price has dropped again!!...it's now $95 with free shipping:

Enjoy, any updates if you could get the 8500 sticks for a review?
Nope, I'll have to get on the G.Skill rep about that. :p:Quote:

At stock volts, it depends on the FSB you boot at. Boot at <-335FSB and you should have PL4. ;)Quote:

just tested them today at 550 :)
super pi 32mb passed just fine.
Screen shots? Keep pushing! :)Quote:

tried 565 at those settings...blue screen :)
More votage or tRFC >52
you think? i tried 2.2v trfc lover then 52?
oh man, just read all 19 pages of this thread and great review :)
the highest i can get on my mem is 540 MHz @ 5-5-5-15 with 2.0-2.1v, but i only did quick test of 5 passes of memtest test #5.
i am not too concerned about max speed, since they will be running under spec anyways. now im trying to tighten my timings.
the lowest i can go so far without memtest errors is 5-5-3-15 with trfc=55 (passed memtest #5 10 times)
i tried 2.1v, but cant go any lower.
ive also tried 5-4-3-15 and 5-4-3-20 from 2.0-2.1v, but i get errors.
my current OC right now is 9x389 on my Q6600 with mem @ 467MHz (333/800 divider)
any suggestions on how i can get the timings tighter?
thanks!
btw, i got my kit last week from newegg for $99 shipped. they dropped about $5 a couple days ago and i was a little upset, but now they are back up to $150 so i am happy again :D
5-5-4-13 is a suggested solution though for high clocks @ 5-5-5-15
the difference is not noticeable only in benchs
sorry for the dumb question, but would tighter timings allow for higher memory bandwidth?Quote:

i bought one kit of these, only 82€
damn they are getting cheap :)
will posts results as soon as my mobo and cpu are in
This is what I am able to get out of my G-Skill DDR2 PC8500 2X 2Gb kit

I don't know what the statis tread phaze adjust means in my bios though,,?
tRFC is very tight try 47-52
Write To Precharge (11) is tWR = 3 in bios too tight set it to 6.
