Hiwa is it possible to test on REX?
tks
edit: i got a set commin in we shall find out soon
I dont think its the i530. I think its i530 on that pos board. gd65 is good for lynnQuote:

I couldnt get mine past 200 blck. maybe you get lucky. I have 2 kits of evo cas 7 and on ud6 atm. what bios is the best for clarks and evo on ud6? im on f7 bios.
Did anyone try these kits in Tri-channel already?
Have seen a 1600 Tri-kit.
No review yet.:rofl:
gd65+i5 750 works perfectly with these rams though
I am definitely looking for a better board, but in the near future ;)
So far I dont see any clarkdale doing crazy ram speeds
Any comments on that?
***please excuse my english :(***
youre english is excellent my friend. No apology needed. I need you guys to all know I went from the elpida high v stuff from last year on x48/rampage extreme to AMD am2 during the summer during the whole "hey look amd can oc really high again (x2 550be 965c3 etc. buzz) then I found out the hard way that sb750 just sucks for anything else. raid performance /ram / etc etc. I just got back into intel about a month ago and sold all my amd crap except the 5850 ;)Quote:

I know it takes time and money to bin these but there needs to be a point when you just have a kit that does it all and let the end user bin them and try to get the best out of them. thats what most of us are looking for. just buy a bunch of good ics that do it all and get a good deal on them and pass the savings to the end user buy a crap load of them and start with some settings to start out at 8-8-8- 2000 1.6v or something close to that. make a thread on your gskill site that shows different cas / and speed combos and how to get the best from it. marketing is great and all and youre in this to make money but is this really necessary? I'm sorry, I dont mean to rain on anyones parade and we all work hard and the gskill guys are very nice guys. I just think we need to go back to the basics.
best kit i've had so far doin 1928mhz 6-8-6-24 stable on rampage extreme
gonna test on evga p55 ftw soon
4GB @ 960MHz CAS6 stable on REX is breathtaking, great kit dude!
How about CAS7, can it do more than ~1060MHz ?
cas 6 or 7 is 970mhzQuote:

am i setting vtt too low @ 1.32
i can run 2200 cas7 @ 183blk

i can pass memtest even @ 2300 cas7 but anything other than 2:12 diverder i get blue monster
well i got her runnin 2344 cas9 for now
but u rather do 2100 cas7 lol
Unless you can get 2:12 ........ there's not much fun with this kit :(
Well at least for a noob like me :(
Of course I remember your 12k, but 12k with DDR3 is just... wrong. :shakes: :DQuote:

i might have to do a 640+fsb run:D
@zsamz_
i got similar prob on asusp55ws with i7 750 but with cpu-multi.
with multi 21 no go above 1920mhz(no matter cl)
with multi 19 = ok
but i think you already tried everything

i think i gonna put the set on rex cause its a waste on p55 with 2:12 when any other set i gave gives better results with other dividers
hopefully i get some time off to play soon
I will try it, but you know, it's not that easy on the Gigabyte. :rofl:Quote:

I think im going to stop with this RAM until MSI can provide a better-supporting BIOS. I get the nagging feeling im doing something wrong and G.Skill deserve better than an "irrelevant" review because I can only run the kit out-of-warranty
i had to abuse the memory to get it runnin rightQuote:

Will these work effectively on an AMD platform?
i was @ 1920mhz 6-9-8-24 1.65v fully stable on rampage extreme so i think they will do even tighter timings on amd since its good for 2300mhz cas8 on p55Quote:

nice 2000 6-9-6 :up: what about vdimm?
1.66Vdimm!
nice :up:
Just cant go any higher now when clocked to 2000Mhz my NB clocks are 4000Mhz thats my limit what ever i do it crashs to go any higher!
These are some pretty nice sticks (vdimm @ 1.72v)
2550mhz @ cas7 sure does look nice
http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m...odom/14768.jpg
:eek: crazy nice sticks you got there man
2550 Cl7 is awsome, Aircooling?
How do these compare to the F3-18400CL8D-4GBPIS? I'm buying one of them tomorrow, gotta decide which one.
:) I 'm curious about it as well. Havnet seen any review about it. I was going to order the 2400MHZ CL9 kits, but it is a little bit shortage right now. I 'm also thinking which one I should go, maybe 2300 MHz just can go higher frequency.
they are also PSC but binned ICs;)Quote:

:) I agree with it. Even they are made of the same IC, but higher spec means special binned IC. I think 2400mhz kits should be really good binned IC. G.Skill and Patriot just released 2500Mhz kits, but haven't seen any review or post about it yet. :rolleyes:
i'll post 2500 kit soonQuote:

Gigabyte 790FXTA-UD5
2x2GB G.Skill 2300MHz CL8
And these stick dont like CL6 and CL7.
800MHz CL7 is max, even 850MHz CL7 donät boot.
I tried 1.65v- 1.72V and no help.
Then I put in these cruical rams:
http://www.crucial.com/store/partspe...=BL12864TN1608
And 800MHz CL6 no problem.
So these G.skill 2300MHz rams are not elpida?
Max voltage for them?
I hoped that these bad boys can do 900MHz CL6.
Vdimm don't help you
here is a quick test on AMD

,2200 don't goes well on AMD platform, you need hyper or Micron or wait for new Flare kit can run 2000 7-9-7 :yepp:
mine canīt go higher than 1700 CL797 1,65V on AMD plaform (790X + 965BE). More Vdimm on this sticks donīt help as Hiwa say :)
D9GTS can go 1800 CL6 on AMD... But 2,3V :D

Thanks for the fast reply.
Is Vdimm = DRAM voltage:rolleyes:
Other Timming settings needed to be adjusted as well?
yes Vdimm = Dram voltage
no you don't need anyother sub setting, try just +1 on tWL ;)
Looks like 2 x 2gb kit are much more easy to tame than 4 x 2gb kit!!!!
I still have trouble to stable this setup at Prime.
oh man i thought u want bench, keep 8gb @ 2200 prime stable is not that easy you think, try 2000 and tighter timings ;) like 7-9-7Quote:

yeah. in 2200MHz, the system can only hold up to 1.5 hours before one worker stopped at Prime :rolleyes:
maybe I need a liquid hydrogen cooling system for the cpu and rams :rofl:
what are your voltages to get it stable at 2000MHz?
and timings should be set from CL7-10-10-28 (both channels) to ??
stable at 2040MHz and cpu speed at 4.08GHz with CL7-10-10-28 stock timmings.
try to push up to 2050MHz with 4.10GHz but no luck.
Any good suggestions?
vtt 1.42
cpu 1.30
dram 1.66
pch 1.05
pll 1.86
you are in very good point at 2040
leave it there, trust me ;)
you might wanna try 7-9-8-26;)"thats my 24/7 for 2100mhz'' or 6-9-8-26 if you luckyQuote:

welcome back hiwa jan:up::welcome::toast::party::YIPPIE::bounces:
hiwa you have always been cool to me. while you were out I started to mess with the pi 7 kit. I have 2 sets of 2gbx2. I haven't taken the time to see which are the best sticks. but what should I expect on a clarksdale 655k and no special cooling on the ram, just ln2 on the cpu. This is what I got while you were out. (no os tweaks) i think ram volts were around 1.68v in the gigabyte itx contest. Im just trying to figure out what these are capable of so I can start somewhere. can you guys bring me up to date? I dont feel like reading 11 pages.
http://hwbot.org/competition/gbt_h55_mitx scroll to the bottom. that was on these sticks.
hiwa, nice to see u.. mem section is so empty without u :)
oh man clarkbar had a crappy IMC, you have to try the best 6-8-6 @ 2:8 deviderQuote:

For the hyper issues on some boards, the sticks aren't up to it. I have 6 GTX 2 sticks and only 4 of them run at 2133 CL7-7-7-21 on the Dlx B2 board, the other ones even fail at 7-8-7...(while that works on M4E and UD5/7) It's all up to good sticks ( no matter what they did on other platforms, SB is different ) as some do it at 1.68Vdimm, other ones need 1.72
soon or later we get bios from asus with "better memory compatibility"
I hope so :DQuote:

using bios 1598... set vdimm to 1.65v exactly, full phase enabled ocp disabled... my real voltage seems to stay @ 1.66v,even sometimes when not @ load... it only reverts to 1.6501v when started from a cold boot though.

Same?
Can you check if it does 7-9-7 because mine and it seems alot of others here can't... they can only do 7-10-7... tRCD has problems going down to 9... but they scale very well in frequency
if it can do 7-9-7 with rated volts, then ic might be different
I think you have to have pretty strong sticks to pull off 2133+ 7-9-7...
My 2133 7-10-7 kit has no problem doing 2000 7-9-6, at least on AMD.
my gskill 7-10-10 2200 can do 7-10-7 2250MHz fine and dandy, but cannot do 7-9-7 2133. Weird thing is that i have dominator gt 8-9-8 which can do 7-9-7 2133 just fine with 1.65v, but i need to loosen timings to 9-10-9 for 2250MHz (or of course increase voltage)Quote:

Don't be shy with voltage....
I jolted (for benching) my 2133 C8 Gskill with 1.75 for 2100 7-9-6-20 on AMD 990X whereas it benched @ 2222 6-9-6-24 with 1.82Vdimm on Intel P67
i was planning to test all my ram with 1.7+ volts but my maximus broke and now i have to wait for rma :(Quote:

how do you guys think cmgtx3 will do when compared to these (specifically my kit above) i just bought some and in the process of selling these
which is better binned you think?
Powerchips are hard to predict, specs don't say much if the timings are rated at 9-11-9-27. My PIS kits both won't do 1070 7-9-7-24 at 1,65V, one does 7-9-9-24 as it is TRP-limited and not TRCD at these frequecies, both go up to bclk limit at 1150+ with 7-10-9-27 respectively 7-10-7-27 with 1,65v and less. So everything will show at testing, I prefer BBSE or hyper on SB anyway
http://www.abload.de/thumb/g.skill22...15216597e7.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/g.skill22...10-911ppp3.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/kit210687...32m162c3qv.jpg
mine seems to be entirely tRCD bound up to 1125 which is my current chip's blck wall.
it can do 7-10-7 with 1.65v. I do prefer bbse over psc, but the only ones i can find are the gskill trident 9-9-9 2000 ones. Do you think those are better than these psc chips?
and i've gone through 4 sets of hyper kits with no luck yet with getting them stable @ stock volts :( Still waiting for a gtx2 to pop up... linuxfan had adata 8-8-8 2200 but he caught me at a bad time (no money)
Itīs pretty hard to find good mems for SB, bad compability especially with hyper-ics and eol on nearly all good oc-ics and mems make things even harder. I has two sets of trident 2000 and one of ripjaw 2000 C9, all ran acceptbale, the ripjaws doing 1070 7-9-7, the trident 2000 dual doing 1095 7-9-7 and on the trident triple two sticks went above 1140 7-9-7 and one stopped at 1130 7-9-7 at 1,65V, all scaling with higher voltage. So itīs hard to predict hoe these will run, but all were good SB rams, even my 1600 C6-7-6 trident run easy above 1110 7-9-7-20. As I also have two sets of RipjawX 2133C8 which do 7-9-7 up to bclk-limit (1150 ram) with less than 1,65v and a couple of hyper kits that run on mini-asus as well as on ud5 I stopped testing a while ago, so thatīs all that I can say about memory on this awful and bugged platform^^:shocked:
i had a two sets of 4gb trident 2000c9 they did 9-9-9 24 1100 @ 1.65v and i couldn't get cas down to 7 at anything 2k, but i think that had to do with the fact that i ran them with an evga p67 ftw which has memory issues.
Now as soon as my mive comes back from rma..
might grab me another set again.
thanks websmile.
EDIT: hopefully x79 will be better, i just wonder how quad channel will overclock..
i hope that memory compatibility issues will be fixed if and once ib comes out for 1155
