3 x 2GB Corsair 2000C7 GTs..
Installed
Booted into windows
Pressed windows reboot button
rig didn't ever boot up again
ONE stick died
NOT even bench it to see how it does... :(
oh :banana::banana::banana::banana:
that is just terrible
:(

Hi all,
Any reports if this Elpida kits are dieing to?
A DATA Triple channel 2133X "ELPIDA"
Thanks
A-data 2133X are elpida hyper based, not sure about the recent batches as not many folks have access to purchasing 2133X
I have one kit 3Gb and I’m considering buying a new 6Gb kit, but I don’t know if they are dieing like Corsair or OCZ.Quote:

even though i still use micron d9gtrs every now and then :P
Shamino you are correct :up:, i got my Corsair Dominator GT 3x 2GB DDR3-2000 cas7 during that period of time and they have been used and abused for a long time and they dont die lol , I guess we got lucky bro.Quote:

Cryptik , My code on the sticks said 09051724 , so my guess is week 05 2009.

I got my 3x2 1866 dominators in the AMD rig now. Tuning them in atm hoping for 1760+ 6-6-6 1.7v

first sticks no prob actually other than it not being able to run at rated voltage.
my first kit had one stick dead,Quote:

My cheapo G.Skill tridents also have Elpida chips but the code is BBSE, hopefully this means they are either not Hypers or are differently binned / a different batch.
Either way I can boot into Windows at will :D (for now...)
lol Hipro been stressing them in memtest all night, still tuning. I did bin the sticks though, one seemed rather flaky and got tossed to side as a spare.Quote:

But ssshhttt: Leeghoofd doesn't want to know :p:
Massman, you run into any peculiar issues on AM3? Try with a tad more volts per chance? Were they 2x2g?Quote:

No issues, to be honest, never had any so far. I really love this kit :D
Interesting, run 32m by any chance @ 1.7v?
Reason I'm asking is at same speed above @ 1.7v = fail, Memtest passes @1760 +.
I think I'm gonna break out my mach 1 to get to the bottom of this, seems all to familiar.
Fail due to too high clocks or voltage?
Nah Dropped cpu speed and nb speeds and voltages down......still fails 32m with 1.7v at same speed, passes at 1.65v fails higher than 1720.Quote:

I think you know what i'm getting at here. I'm on air atm, will bring some cold into equasion in a bit.
Tightening subs. Like 10th run so far I think. Still alive and kicking,
http://chew.ln2cooling.com/elpida/elpida%202.JPG
EDIT, think I figured out a way around part of the problem....
http://chew.ln2cooling.com/elpida/elpida%203.JPG
I was actually going to suggest that: drop the NB frequency :).
The big problem with AM3 memory overclocking really is the quality of the northbridge. First of all, it's not necessary to have high speed memory if you're not using a high-speed northbridge and, secondly, the stress put on the northbridge by running high clocked memories is enormeous. Have you seen Titon's 940MHz+ memory speeds? That's only possible because he was running a 955 (better silicon quality) ánd, very important, had his cpu run under phase.
You'll notice, by the way, that there's not a lot of scaling in performance going up even higher in the memory frequency. You might want to try CL5.
Not sure what this has to do with the Elpida's dieing on everyone.
Well nah it is off topic, but I'm hammering them with 32m to A: make sure they are going to hold up, and B: break the myth that they will die if you run 32m...I'm sure they have issues, but I don't see any AMD guys with said issues.......Quote:
Originally Posted by massman

These are going to be for 3d only.
The NB can handle that speed, Just dropped for now to eliminate it from equasion, ram is ramping up now due to some adjustments was still failing with lowered NB prior to adjustments.
How high was your northbridge running at 6G+ runs? I bet higher than in the screens you're posting now. That's what I'm talking about here: low NB frequency and you don't need high frequencies on the memory to have good performance.
Can you run 864MHz CL6 with 2.8G NB on air cooling (as in same temps)?
As for the myth; it's obviously a myth. There's no such thing as 32M killing memory :p:. Has anyone made a list of the motherboards that killed the memory?

I'm not tuning these for 4 gig though :p:
Yah thats what I'm getting at is it certain boards and or just plain intel boards, I'm on my 15th 32M run still no dead sticks.... I think its a combo, elipdas design flaw, intel board voltage implementation? Maybe a voltage spike at boot?
You're wasting your time with 32M: it's just not the reason why the memory gets killed.
As far as I can see (and I've heard), it seems that Evga, Dfi and Asus are mentioned the most. Then, the obvious question would be: why not MSI, Gigabyte or other manufacturers?
Because the first 3 brands you mention are used by the majority of the Elpida hyper users perhaps? I do not think the board matters, its the dimms it seems. I have had several sets on Evga, Asus, DFI and GB board, First dead dimm this week :( New kit, installed OS at rated clocks (2000mhz @ 8-8-8 1,65v) reboot, set 1600mzh for test and no boot. 1 dimm = dead
It's possible that the explanation is indeed that simple.
What board were you on?
Yeah i doubt it's the boards.. there's plenty of elpida hyper users with older batches with no problems on those mentioned boards as well as users who use Gigabyte boards with failed elpida hypers. The problem is on Elpida's end.Quote:

The problem its the bad batches of Elpidas Hyper not the boards.Quote:

Well you have not seen the bucket I have under my desk then for the Elpida recycling project. ;) They fail on AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, does not matter. It simply comes down to the quality of the IC, said it a long time ago, still saying it today. We have identified the suspect lot numbers with the help of the memory manufacturers, just waiting on Elpida to respond.Quote:

ALthough I joked about this earlier, yeah the power factor will be lower on AMD as power draw is determined by frequnecy, current, voltage and operations per second - even still, the weak sticks will still die regardless of platform or board.
Anyone got any of their elpida back from rma yet? Just wondering about the ic's they got back if they are holding up. Still holding out with two stick until august when kingston is suppose to sub out a different ic on their ram.
hey george you sure its not just your classified not likeing to boot cold with these sticks j/k
i havent played with my 2000GT CAS7 kit on Classi yet and just put it in tonight
NO BOOT
:banana::banana::banana::banana:
lol
it turns out that my board doesnt like this RAM and i have to boot with 2xsticks and then apply settings power down and put the third stick in
i just spend half hour with this and i've finally got it in memtest showing 6GB stable
i dread clearing cmos lol
Yeah its not limited to the Classified or 32m as both my sticks died after normal use. Shut my computer off just to turn it on the next day and 1 stick be dead on both sets. One set died on my DFI while the other on my Classified. One set was HyperX's while the other Blades. I have noticed that the ones mainly dying are GT's, Blade's and HyperX's.
yeah i killed my C8 kit on Gigabyte UD5 but i did play with Andre(w)esque style voltage :D
2.1V for it 24/7. I love it.:DQuote:

OK max ram on AMD at "safe" voltage if there is such a thing.

And this is my sweet spot it appears.....Will keep them at this speed and report back if and when they die.

Just had another stick of Kingston HyperX go belly up. This stick died in windows after a boot up. Since i now know what it looks like when they die from the other stick. Rebooted slapped in the old trusty memtest86+ and sure enough red errors all the way down the screen. Now the sad part is i'm coasting on 2gig here and frankly i feel like i'm waiting on a time bomb now. KIngston got me scared............
Hey people! After these big mess with the Elpida Hyper I dont know what memory should I buy... I was going to buy a Dominator GT 2000Mhz Cas8, but I dont want to spent like u$400 to see how they die in a few weeks. So... what memories do you recommend me to buy and not to take the risk of see them die? I live in Argentina, and I have to ask someone to bring them, and if I have to make a RMA, it would take months till I have the new mems...
So, that is the question, what mems do you recommend me to buy? I will buy a EVGA Classified 760, so, I will like a good pair of mems to complete the rig :) A friend tell me that Corsair mems have issues with this mb, is that true?
Well, thanks for all if you answer and sorry for my bad english.
For now, don't buy anything using Elpida Hyper ICs is my suggestion.Quote:

Thanks a lot Yellow and congratulations for the great work!
Currently I'm running my second TR3X6G1866C7GTF kit after the first failure.
oc @ 2000MHz 7-8-7-20-1T Vdimm @ 1.72v, qpi/vtt @ 1.65v, Vcpu @ 1.39v.
With the above settings I ran successfully hyper pi 32M, memtest for windows 500%, memtest86 5 passes stable and linx 5 passes stable.
Also I noticed that sometimes when I used lower vdimm values @ the post process only 4 giga where recognized from the 6 total. Rebooting raising vdimm and 6 giga recognized again. I remember another thread about dropping ram channels. I don't know if this is a bad sign of feature failure.
Using a dmm and measuring vdimm @ full load I noticed that the mobo undervolts the dimms by 20 mv.
chew, i experienced this over and over... thats the ceiling of the memory or the memory controller... whenever i pushed memory to the max when working for cellshock, regardless of what chip, it would always act like that when i hit the ceiling... itll not clock higher and vdimm wont matter and more actually makes it worse... if you make a graph you will see that it kinda bounces against the ceiling at some point, with increasing vdimm it goes into a sinus curve bouncing against the ceiling, or, it drops down bit by bit, or, it starts falling big time to very low speeds... ive seen all of those possibilities with the same memory chips from the same batch even...
but they all, always had one point at which more vdimm didnt help and started to make things worse.
btw, i had a strong suspicion back then that at least for micron chips pushing above vdimm that had them stable through the chips damaged the chips after some time. i always used memtest86 and kept vdimm at the level where it was stable for that speed and that timings, and those sticks never died for me... the only ones that did where the ones where i forced speeds higher and higher in windows with more and more vdimm, ignoring that the mem was actually unstable and just pushing more and more for suicide shots.
oh and yes, diferent timings mean more vdimm is possible or you get errors at the same vdimm that was ok before... in general in my experience tighter timings at the same speed = higher vdimm accepted by the chips. for micron cas and trp made a notable diference in how much vdimm i could pump through them, which then meant i could get slightly higher clocks... but those are tiny things, 4mhz more and 1 step higher vdimm...
corsair compatibility tends to be very good, but i dont think they referred to compatibility here, a couple of people seem to be unhappy with memory tweaking and overclocking on the evga board, not sure what exatly though as nobody mentioned any details...Quote:

Oh well, I guess, elpida just sinks farther into the hole they dug for themselves. First japan has to bail out elpida, now as if things weren't bad enough, the hyper chips are flawed and manufacturers are returning them in masses.
could you repeat that? it sounded like you had 15 kits kingston elpida hyper die on you? :eek: maybe its a typo? :oQuote:

help we need money to survive!
then take the money over seas and invest it in another company LOL :rolleyes:
just another reason why im against all those government bail outs...
i dont think this hurts elpida at all... the chip recalls are probably peanuts for them... what they really lost, and lost big time, is credibility...
i wouldnt have expected them to have so bad Q&A and then not even having the b4lls to stand up and admitting a problem... :rolleyes:

how far of an OC does it take ???
at stock speeds and voltage are the sticks failing ???
Pushing ram speeds at low volts with ICs becoming very small I bet is not an easy task. Then people like us OC/abuse the sticks and then they snap and fail thus being the companies fault???? My CPU ever fails it will be due to my voltage and OC I put on the chip.
The company and the consumer should bear the responsiblity
Yes, some users have sticks dying using voltages that are below stock. Something is certainly amiss, perhaps the real rated voltage and speed of the IC's is a lot lower than what Elpida or the vendors applied, or simply issues in fabrication and quality control. All parts of the jigsaw I guess.Quote:

This is the second kit TR3X6G1866C7GTF I'm using. With the first one I lost one module and everything was at stock. It's been a month now since I started using my second kit without any issue.Quote:

Corsair also in its forums suggests a qpi/vtt no more than 1.7-1.8 volts.
Paying such a high price you do expect more.
Of course everyone is responsible on what he does.
10 died on me, 5 were doa kits from newegg, probably the very same kits I was sending back. Only around 10 kits died in my hands, but if you looked at neweggs records, they probably would say that I killed all 15 haha. They never really understood what was going on. I kept telling them it was a common problem of the chips dying, but this was early on in the game, well before anyone on here had reported the hypers dying, so they thought I was just an idiot who didn't know how to install ram or adjust voltages. That's what you get for ordering 7 kits of the stuff haha. I couldn't have picked a worse set of ram to buy a lot of. One by one the dominoes fell and each kit had to be rma'd. Thankfully for my wallet, newegg paid the return shipping. Each kit was rma'd once, plus when I sent a kit in for refund, they sent me another doa kit back for no apparent reason which makes up the 15th set. Many hours of customer service later and I've got all my money back. Now it's on to the mushkin customer service department.Quote:

Yeah, as soon as I started getting open packaged ram with tape sealing it shut, I started thinking hmmm... these look mighty familiar, then to test them and find 1 stick doa, I realized, aha newegg is just sending the junk ram back out. I even told the customer service rep online, I've gotten multiple packages that are open and doa, you guys are just sending the same ram from these rma's back out. Of course she ignored what I had to say and asked me what the symptoms of my computer problems were. Do you have the ram inserted right? Does your motherboard accept ddr3? Are they in the right slots? And every time the answer was the same, guys, I'm an overclocker, if anyone knows how to spot dead ram, it would be me.Quote:

I wonder what they replace these chips with.
what about a KHX16000D3T1K3/6GX today? did kingston find out a solution for sudden deadh issue of his memory?
Same question here.
I own a Kingston HyperX T1 6GB and one of the sticks just give me Radnom BSODs and crashes, regardless of the speed (even at 1066 CAS8.)
What chips are we going to get in them if I will RMA the sticks ?
i'm rmaing my dom gt and i asked them which one they'll send back, i'm waiting for their answer
will let you guys know the answer
Add me to the list. One stick of my mushkin 998707 died last week. I was running it at 1800 7-7-7 1.65 so I wasn't pushing them hard. Still awaiting my rma #.
Posershadow: did you deal with newegg or mushkin for your rma ? If you dealt with mushkin ,what replacement set did you get ?
when did you bought them? before 1st of august?Quote:

What I've seen is Kingston has been replacing these kits for a new model. Let's hope that new verison will solve the issue permanently..
EDIT: Oh one more thing. That dead stick just won't boot up or recognize. However it will boot up just fine with my Rampage Extreme and I wonder what's wrong...
