haha definitely. My Tccd doesnt even run at 2.5V
hmmm I think this program might be buggered??
http://xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=43926
When I try to boot with those timings and boost FSB it cant do those speeds, but when I use this program it does it??it shows in cpuz =(. my FSB was 261 2.5v for sure but not so sure my timings were that great. blah retry. gunna retry it with cas2.5 instead
hows it do with 2.8-2.9v?
Need a64 results... intels vary too much and there arent enough tweakable options :D
dunno how it does, so far 2.5v is all its needed.Quote:

wait so you cant boot 261 2-3-2 2.5v? then how do you run memtest :stick:I wanna see some screenies of stability like spi 1 mil etc.Quote:

btw I think that this 865P tweak utility and MSI CoreCenter isnt setting my clocks right. Im going to try not to use these and just try to use BIOS settings now

this was just a quick, i was playing FFXI all day and lots of heavy multi-tasking with 250 2.5-2-3-5 and 2.8v, which I set in bios and forget.
Im confused though why CoreCenter and the 865 Tweaker does NOTHING at all!
For example, I set 3500mhz 250fsb 2.5-2-3-5 2.7v in bios run sandra... and then I set it to 258 and same sandra scores?? CPuz shows it changes...
but then I lower my FSB down to 200 - 2800mhz and still..... same scores... :rolleyes:
2.5-3-2-5 with 250mhz and low volts is definetely working, but hmm this is confusing.
btw memtest86 always has worked the same as windows one for me, ive used both quite alot
Its impossible to work just as effectivly within windows. :stick:Quote:

hmm I cant see why DOS memtest is any better? sure it may get 100 megs more to work with, but chances are if the first 900 are good the other 100 is too. ive used both versions quite a bit, just memtest in windows alot easier then sticking in the ultimate boot CD and whatnotQuote:

Todays my Bday so gunna go do something, ill play around with it some more later
Not as effective? thats 200mb of ram your NOT checking is 20% of your whole system if you have 1gb! Boot cd? its in the bios for the DFI NF4's.Quote:

superpi is a good way of showing memory stability...... just a quick run.. doesnt have to be tweaked for speed, just the fact that it completes error free. :stick:
Yeah Elixir CT's are pretty nice. They dont take voltage at ALL. But I have a pair doing 2.5-3-2-6 @ 250 stock vdimm.
Of course these are the best two of the ten sticks I bought.
I have elixir BT's and they aren't nearly as good.
