Id try some Orthos or Prime95 on the RAM instead of memtest. Just use the option to stress the RAM more.Quote:

The problem is my pc don't boot , get hang at DET DRAM if set lower than v2.20. I don't really know if it's the ram problem or what . And I have read alot about this kit died if going over v2.20. Anyone have any suggestions
ya but what volts lolQuote:

I got 4x1gb Ballistix tracers PC8500 yesterday but i cant even run them @ stock 1066 5-5-5-15 2.2v.
I'm running them on a GigaByte DQ6 X38 motherboard. My old Team PC6400 CL3 did 1200 MHz @ 2.2 with two fingers in there nose.
Are Tracerts bad for overclocking ? or do i have a compatibility problem with the crucial PCB ? I also tested the modules in pairs 2 by 2 same problems. One pair wont boot stock speeds second pair could boot 1200 but with errors in memtest straight away.
i had the gigagrap x38 could not go past 800mhz with 4 sticks to save its lifeQuote:

uhmm strange that my old memory could run 1200 but non of the Ballistix can. I have a newer bios that made it possible to run 1066 but not more than that :(
Mine are running 1200Mhz with stock 2.2v.... :confused:Quote:

Cant even run them 2x1gb 5-5-5-15 1066 MHz with 2.35 and 2.2 is stock :(
bad sticks verry unluckyQuote:

I can also try normal non tracerts. But normally the tracerts should perform just as wel as the normal sticks ?
Or maybe i should be looking for one more set of TEAM Xtreem 800 MHz CL3
i got a set of tracers with d9gct its pure crapQuote:

Uhmm these are also without clips.
But i also found out the GA-X38 wont like 4x1 GB. So i have bad sticks and a motherboard that will not support it :( so back to my old team memory. Not gonna buy a new motherboard because i need 4 GB now. Hopefully GA will fix the 4gb issue. Then i will find a old set of good D9's to match my team memory.
These ballistix are going back. I liked the looks tho :) Looks cool all those lights :D

I read some forum posts and there are a lot of people that have problems with GA and 4x1 memory setups. GA ignores the users a bit telling them there is noting wrong with the board and that the problems ly with the memory but there are just to many people having this problem most of them are using crucial memory.Quote:

gigabyte dont give a crap after you bought the boardQuote:

i got so fed up i shelfed my p35c-ds3r
and now i boycot them for life
if you keeping your board n you need 4 gigs go with 2x2
i dont think they can fix it with bios i suspect they released the board way too early and the design is flawed
my dfi was pushin 4x1@1200 like it was nothing and it can do it with 2.13v
Do you all think I might be having the same problem then?
My motherboard is a Giga P35-S3L, and my 2x1gb ballistix tracer 8500 will run at 1066mh 5-5-5-15 but will NOT let me tighten the timings no matter what volts I use. I can however get (just) upto 1100mhz @ 5-5-5-15 stable but no further.
Is it the board thats the problem?
I had no problem at all running 4X1Gb OCZ 6400 Plat Rev 2 on my P35-DS3R board at DDR2-890 4-4-4-15.
too many limiting factorsQuote:

i got a pair of 6400 tracers cant get them past 1100 2.6v lol
but they do 4-4-4-12 2 960 with 2.2v
try 4-4-4-12-3-3-8-42 @ 1000 with 2.2v performance level 7-8
The code on my anti static bags is:
BL12864AL1065.8FE5
if that helps. If not, I'll have a look inside my case later on!
I got the with Asus they also dont care about supporting there motherboards. They know that people will still buy then because it has a sticker Asus on it.Quote:

I guess its back to DFi and Abit Boards again :mad:
Only Jesus could do that...And maybe Mr TQuote:

yes alot of the general public think asus is the best n they pay the xtra money for itQuote:

the best boards i ever had were the 865 n 875 chipsets by asus
but after touching a dfi board i doubt i will buy another brand
