OK, so why do people buy the PC3200 ZX when they know they must reach PC4000 speeds to be happy, when there is the specified PC4000 HZ set?
I really think you are not fair to G.Skill here.

OK, so why do people buy the PC3200 ZX when they know they must reach PC4000 speeds to be happy, when there is the specified PC4000 HZ set?
I really think you are not fair to G.Skill here.
Reason I'm sending back is because they won't let me run a divider under 150 or 166, which means my chip is capped at 2400 when it'll do 3ghz with ease. If I could get it to run a 133 divider I'd be extremly happy. I just want 2-3-2-5 @ 200 out of it using a divider.
reason why people by the pc3200 is because we expect to see around 240+ when we have techs from the company posting 270+ to show what they can do, unfortunately the retails are telling another story.Quote:

Anyone think running 2T would make it be able to boot using a lower divider? If so I might just open my RMA box and try it out.
Have anyone of you guys tried to start off without using any dividers at all? In many cases, getting stable with memory divider used, requires some fine tuning, even to get system to POST. Those that haven't tried that yet, do so. You might be making it harder for yourself that it might really seem.
Just set voltage to 2.7v, use 5-2-3-3.0-1T, TREF=AUTO and go from there. G.Skill ZX does not seem to gain anything from raising voltage above 2.9v. Bump voltage slowly when neccesary and also try TRTW=3 if you experience sudden wall.
yep tried all that. no divider cpu multi 10X 9X 8x still no boot over 225 no matter what. 222 is max prime stable with or without a divider regardless of timings, voltage or dram settings or bios. or cpu since I tested on my diego and a venice in another DFI.
Same here with 4200+ Manchester and 3800+ Toledo.
-pickles
Can anyone with problems run a 300x9 with a 133 divider?
I can run any divider I want as long as the memory ends up 222 or less lol
I'm running 267X10 with 166 divider which gives me 222 and its totally stable.
mine's running fine at 250 with the settings from the last page. havent tried any higher yet, but FEAR runs so smooth now.
I just did a quick (I repeat, quick :D) check on multis x8, x9, x10 and x11 and in all those instances, at div140 and div133 system hangs and the end of POST at 300HTT... It's fine @ div166 and div180... It could be possibly fixed through tweaking few settings in BIOS, but I don't feel like playing with it now :p: Good show is on TV :DQuote:

These rams I wouldn't recommend my worst enemy. Massive problems with dividers (thanks for testing, G.S.Technician), incredible lousy to oc. I couldn't believe the rumours before, but these rams are most likely odious Hynix.
Thanks for this review. Lessons learned.
Do you actually have that kit? Or you just saying that for some reason?Quote:

What lesson would that be? That you don't know how to overclock or that you have the patience of a crack addict? You post was as useless as Paris Hilton being on a debate team.Quote:

Update: Voila! I had a photo taken durin 12th pass, but accidentally deleted wrong one of the CF card :(
Problems with dividers are not exactly and always caused by memory. It's up to few visits to BIOS and tweaking...
Hi guys, i would want to let you know that last week i was very very busy. our warehouse got break in and lost a lot of things. i am unable to do all the pm reply, emails, and rma. Everything will back on track next week i hope.
2GBZX i would say 90% of them can do very good on OC but it is not "rated" speed. if every kit can does 500, we will rated @ DDR500? i hope everyone understand it.
These stix were my first G.Skill purchase and although I was dissapointed in there clocking potential, they are good stix and after all they are only pc3200. I just think they need to not promote these as overclocking stix, seems like 50/50 at best, which is a crappy ratio of you wanna advertise these as overclocking ram.
My G.Skill ddr500's are on the way so I shall have my 2gigs at 250 or better anyway. plus the black heatspreaders on these are way nicer looking :p:
as long as your ddr500 2gig kit does 500 then we're square :)Quote:

I just wanted to add another example of dividers working just fine ( at least with the kit and CPU I have :p: ).
This time it's 32M with div150 @ 320x9=2906MHz DDR484 5-2-3-3.0-1T 2.7v. BIOS I'm using is 623-3.
And yeah, just like G.S. Technician says... Look at the price of that kit and understand why it's rated @ PC3200. There are 2GB kits rated @ PC4000 but cost of speed grading makes them often much more expensive. It's simple when money is not a factor. But If one is on a very tight budget then things get a bit more frustrating...
Here are my results
2hr prime / 32M superpi
I copied the bios settings from the original post exactly on my ultra-d, and have got DDR500 easy.
It was the cheapest 2GB kit I could find in australia so I'm very happy with how it performs!
:)
yeah I would ahve been thrilled if mine did 250, I swapped em for the ddr500's
Did you have to pay a 15% restock fee on newegg too?
Some sticks don't seem to be doing as good as others all of a sudden... :(
I question blaming the RAM directly for dividers not working that just doesn't make sense.
dividers have nothing to do with the ram actually as far as I know, its all memory controller, in my case I know its neither the cpu or memory controller, so I know its the ram that wont overclock.
Yes I blame the ram, I stick 2x1gb geils in and everything works fine, I stick 2x512 OCZ in and everything works fine, I stick these G.Skills in and I can't boot over 270 or use a divider under 150.
well you got me beat mine would not go over 225 all I wanted was 250, your getting 270 !!
Wish I got your stix :rolleyes:
Over 270x9 I mean not 270 on the ram. Read my posts, mine killed my OC. All I wanted was 312x9 with a 133 divider running the ram at 200 and it couldn't even do that.
ok well I beat you then LMAO, wow thats pretty weak man,
on a side note I got my ddr500 2gb kit today and they are nice 250 out of the box and they auto'd at 3-3-3-7 instead of the rated 3-4-4-8, Got into windows at 275 but I am sick of messing with my rig. so they are sitting at 250 and I am content with 2.7ghz and 250
you two are really unlucky :(
so how is those kits going on in here now
who else can not overclock this ram let me know, i am doing the stat now
I just got a couple of those stix and right now they are sitting pretty at 265FSB 1:1 3-3-2-5 2.8v
I just popped them in, booted right up with 704BTA-2 bios set 265 and 3-3-2-5 and they went just fine. Will post pics later tonight.
I believe the HZ is what you're looking for if you want @GB ~280 3-3-2-5 ...
And they just reduced the price On newegg from $245 to $235 :D
Perkam
Yeah I traded the 3200's in for those, they are better for $235 for sure :p:
Does anyone here have this memory and a 3700+? Id like to see what FSBs are reached with different timings, Im interested to see, im having trouble choosing a 2gb kit, I really dont even know if 2gbs is worth getting yet...Oh im new here btw :), I think that just testing with an opteron is kind of a...bland testbed, I know every cpu is different, but I would really like to see the performance paired with a 3700...
Here's my 2wk old test with ZX and 3700+ |---> http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...13&postcount=2Quote:

Well answer my other question...do you think its worth it to make the move to 2GBs?
In that 297x11, memory is on divider (look at the A64Tweaker) and ZX runs @ 272MHz 5-2-3-2.5-1T, which is MAX they go full-stable. I think my kit is somewhat above average, though...Quote:

2. Increase CPU speed so the memory on divider clocks up to what it was at 1:1. Let's say the CPU can handle the higher speed and is not a factor. I can't see this helping either.
If you are just saying that a divider alone(no other system changes), then yeah if you were running 200Mhz at 1:1 and put a 166 divider, now the mem is at 166Mhz then yeah you probably have another 33Mhz to go. I don't think that's what you are saying though.
For equal mem speed I can't see how the divider would help max mem speed.
it doesnt help max speed... it allows you to keep the memory down to a frequency that it will do while allowing you to still overclock.
Example
300X9=2.7
If 1:1 then ddr600
If your stix will only do 250 then
300X9=2.7
if 166 or 5:6 then ddr500 or there abouts.
I have this problem with a 3000 venice... it will do 2.7ghz but wont allow a HTT higher than 243.
I cant prime 250X9 for 2250mhz for more than a minute, but 300X8 flies with stock voltage and a 5:6 divider ....
I also got a pair of these 1gb gskil GBZX. But I also have the problem to boot with a divider under 166. They run just fine at 290 Mhz HTT with divider 166 and the settings posted by G.S Technician on the first page.
I also tried the bios and the settings posted by bachus_anonym to get lower divider, but it won't boot in windows. It just resets itself after the nvidia raid screen.
Hmm i just ordered me these Sticks. I hope they can do 295x9 @166 divider.Quote:

With BIOS 704-1 I was not able to post with div133/140 during very quick test. I flashed to 623-3 and it's like a different world. With that said, it is up to BIOS settings that sometimes need to be adjusted for some dividers to work properly.
Another thing is OCing results from that ZX part. I'm not GSkill tech or anything like that but I have one of those kits. What you need to understand is, that it is PC3200 part, not PC4000 part. Therefore, as many pairs can OC well, some might also not do that great. This is probably the reason ZX is only in PC3200 flavor and it's price is so low. It's only $216, so think about it... That's why YMMV and you cannot come and complain everytime you can't see 240-260MHz out of it. If you want guaranteed 250MHz, go with kit that is rated at that speed.
The results with that kit seem to be very spread out... Some can do 27ish (very rare), some will do 250-260ish and some can do a lot less. You really need to understand that you have to take that risk as it's very cheap kit. It can do great but it can also be not so great. But it sure is a great bang for the buck, considering it's low price.
I think it depends on how much your ram will do. For mine its about 241 mhz with divider and about +10 mhz with 1:1. As I can't use lower dividers, 290-293 super-pi 32m stable is the end for me.
The bad thing is, with my old twinmos bh-5 I managed to get 3100 mhz prime stable on water with 133 divider.
Hmm they definatly have issues with dividers then it seems :(
Damn i hope i can keep my 295x9.
Abnout the ppl that say it's the CPU that affects dividers: I can run all dividers with my current Geil TCCD. I had 2 differend hi voltage RAM's (BH 5 and UTT) and they both couldn't run at all with a divider. (That was on a NEO2)
One type of RAM works liek a charm while others didn't - now how did the CPU make that happen? I agree that it might be a weak memory controller to some extent but it's not the CPU alone that affects this.
Hi bachus_anonym. I tried your settings, even the bios like you. But no chance to get into windows with low dividers. All I want from this ram is too run at 200 mhz, rated timings and a low divider. Every mhz on the ram is ok but I don't really worry about it if it doesn't do 250-260.
The only really sad thing for me is that I don't get the ram to work with low divider and htt about 300~320 mhz.
I will say it depends on all hardware, CPU, mobo, ram, HDD, everthing!!
different setup will result different overclock. Some ppl has many problem when they RMA their ram but there is no problem when I or RMA dep test it.
After all 2GBZX is DDR400 product, it is the top 10 cheapest 2gb ram on newegg...if it does DDR500 OC, that is good, but CPU divider is really depends on CPU's MC, mobo, and ram, or maybe more
Since dividers work just fine with my current TCCD my chances are quite good that it will work with the Gskill then right?Quote:

Your right G.S Technican for this price here in germany its an absolut fantastic ram. Except the divider problem it is for about 20~30 Euro more than a normal noname ram-kit with cas3 a super cheap ocing ram.
As you work for GSkill which bios would you recommend for this ram. I read the last weak so many threads about this ram with so many bios recommendations. I get by time a little bit confused.
Can't you get it a bit higher on divider when you loosen the timings a bit?Quote:

For me it is kinda curios. No matter how loosen i set the timings I wont get into windows at 300 htt. It just stops booting after the nvidia raid screen appeared anf it should back up cmos.
If I plug in my twinmos bh-5 with low divider everythig works fine upto 310~320 htt. Probably it is cpu memory controller related as my twinmos kit is only 1 gb.
Hmm i could live with 290 HTT but less would meke me cry. :)Quote:

As usual.
Only place that has it in UK area wants $332 for them :slapass:
I've already tried 623-3, 632-1, 704-1, 510-1, 704-2bta. They all workt he same.Quote:

I have a set of ZX's coming in.. will let you know how they OC. looking for 290-300 HTT on 166 divider.
Nobody has yet to answer my other question though ;), is it worth it to make the switch from 1gb to 2gbs? I mean what real performance increase will I see with more memory? what can I expect from 2x1gb as opposed to 2x512?
Entirely depends on your application(s).Quote:

Popped them in about an hour ago. Currently, I am at 2600 MHz (260x10) on the cpu and 9:10 memory at 2.5-3-2-5-1T @ DDR472 @ 2.7v
I plugged the exact numbers in from Mr. GSkill USA (1st thread) and stable instantly. So far memtest, pi 1M, OCCT, and hard gaming stable.

Extremely happy to replace my Mushkin TCC5 with the G.Skill ZX...
Thanks G.Skill, you'll have my business, as well as my clients....
UPDATE: The sticks pass memtest with flying colors at DDR520 @ 3-3-2-5-1t @ 2.8v. (Have not tried higher yet) Can't wait to get my Opteron 146 CABYE 0540 (arrives Monday) with the stronger memory controller. My SD3700 is a bit weak and requires too much voltage for my taste. The ram is definately not the problem, great job G.Skill :toast:

I've got a thread on these here:
http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=1625
It has links to other people's test reports as well as the beginnings of my results.
Mine went to 260 3-3-2-5 2.7V on my DFI NF3 250Gb
and 257 3-3-2-5 2.8V on my DFI NF3 Ultra-D
I'm still trying for better, since I haven't really tweaked any other timings yet.
Got a pair of these myself, and I think I got some bad ones, cause once I go over 225 or so, it just starts giving me issues. I've tried all the settings that everyone else is using, and most of the time, I can't even pass the DMI check.
Running them near stock on a divider atm. I wish I can somehow get them to run around 250 or so...
The settings below, they are 100% stable for me. They may be relatively low speed, but are an excellent place to start from.

I just got my set in.. copied the bios settings on the first page.. passed superpi 32mb @ 260 MHz frequency.
pretty impressed considering I only paid $190 shipped for this set :)
anybody who have a ZX kit can run to me a Sandra or Everest memorie bandwidth at 260 3.3.2.5 on ram nd 3100mhz on cpu ?
thanks
I'm definitely gonna play with them more in the future. I honestly believe though that I won't be able to pass 230 or so, just from the rough outlook I've had. I'm on the 704 bigtoe bios btw. Running them at 2-3-2-5 208 on a divider atm.
Just got my 2GB set of the G.Skill ZX's today. I was previously running 2x512MB of the TwinMos Speed Premium UTT. I was not sure where to start with the G.Skill, so I popped in 2.5-3-2-8 timings leaving all the other timings the same and dropped the voltage to 2.7v and while still using my 166mhz memory divider, dropped my HTT from 300 to 250mhz to start off. Powered everything up and slowly brought it right back up to 300 doing superPi 1M real fast per increment to test briefly. Ran some more tests and amazingly, without changing a thing, it seems pretty damn stable at 245mhz. Played WOW and FEAR for a few hours and then ran some quick stability tests. Very pleased with them so far! I have not tried higher yet, but 2.7ghz is my cpu's sweet spot anyway.

How does this look?
http://img506.imageshack.us/img506/9...erpi0ox.th.jpg
Which would be better for overclocking? the ZX or the HZ (pc5000) Wouldnt the HZ give more headroom and higher overclocks? Could someone possibly explain mem ratings to me (not like beginner stuff) but like is it really beneficial to get something higher than pc3200? If it is, I might go with the HZ instead...perhaps some kind of link showing its overclocking potential?
I have the HZ's and they do about 270, I started with the ZX and they only did 223 or so for me, I figure for a few extra bux I get ddr500 at least and I'm happy with that.
Very pleased with the ddr500 kit, plus the spreaders are black to :p:

so do you think the HZs can do 11x275 with some tweaking or 10x300?
Just got my set in. 235 2.5 3.2.5 worked. 245 didn't boot anymore at 2.7 Volts.
I didn't do any tweaking yet so this is just a first test.
Currently running at 150 divider with the RAM at 221mhz stable while writing down the best settings for the RAM to try get higher.
If i can't get it to 245 for the 166 divider i stick to the 150 one and am happy.
If i can get above even better.
I will update as soon i know what i really can do.
So far the 150 divider seems no problem. It was my biggest fear that it wont work after reading comments in here.
Edit: The sticks are stable up to 267 3-3-2-5 !!!
I love these sticks. For the money they are just plain awesome!
show us please ur complete mem's timings setting and ur volt
I used the ones from the G.Skill technician at page one. (Bios setup for DDR 540) Volts = 2.8v but the DFI is overvolting slighly i think. Should be 2.85 in reality.Quote:

Currently i run em at 241 3-3-2-5 1T 2.7v. That's the 166 divider. That way i can run my CPU at max. 7.2k bandwith in Sandra is enough for my gaming.
This will be my 23/7 setting.
just decided this morning b4 class to try out some slower timings to see if i got higher, and right now im @ 250 3-4-3-7-1t priming away, will try higher Mhz later, this zx kit is strange, 3-3-2-7-1t up to about 240,242, and now 250 @ higher timings, i wonder if it will go much higher than 250 @ these timings, 255 would be nice, ill try that later, just wanted to say that if your stuck, try a little slower timings, you may be surprised :)
what do you do in that lost 1 hour? 23/7 :)Quote:

Thanks for posting here btw. Your settings rock and helped me get lots of performance out of my G.Skills.
I was considering getting the ZX as my backup ram but after reading quite a few people RMA and return them because the sticks can't overclock past the rated speed....well.....I'm gonna have to look for something else, as I'm in fear of end up getting some of these left over junk that someone else's RMA'ed or returned, especially when newegg has the habit of putting those used item back in stock again. :stick: so the HZ can do about 260~270 @3-3-3?
Friend bought some 2gbzx the other day. I'm fiddling for a couple of days since he doesn't have his computer with him at the moment.
Currently memtesting 260mhz 3-3-2-5. This is 2.9v without +.2v. Highest i could get 1m passed was 268mhz. Havent done any 32m runs yet.
Tested with 702-1 and 623-3. Could pass 1m 1mhz higher going to 623-3. :woot:
Any idea how these would perform in a nf2 platform? Friend bought these in preparation for a64 but is currently running my old unlocked 2500+ and nf7-s v2.

Man, i'm using an old Voodoo3 2000 PCI 16MB here in my server, and a bloody monitor too, but am i seeing 2x1GB @ 300MHz 2.5-3-2-5 ??? I obviously think that's a CPU-Z bug, but that screenshot r00lz :D
Actually what's the real speed on those sticks? I think i'm getting some ZX after all...
u should check A64 :)
CPUz just let u know i am runing at dual channel 1GB*2
I hear about people having problems with ZXs and having to RMA them. I hope not to have any problem, and also I hope that my sticks clock well ;)
i actually asked newegg about rma, until now is few kits (less than 10 compare to over 500 sold) got rma to them!Quote:

mine now testing @ DDR490
mine is 100% stable @ DDR500 3-3-2-7 @ 2.6Vdimm
memtested it @ DDR500 3-3-2-7 @ 2.7 and was stable for more than 2.5hours
gone test it more in the next couple of days
another kit with my best friend
can do DDR496 @ 3-3-2-7 @ 2.7 and totaly stable
he told me that he is now testing them @ DDR520 @ 2T @ 3-3-3-7
the last kit is owned but not a mad o/cer like us so he only tried it @ DDR440 @ 2.5-3-2-7 @ 2.6 which is very stable with him since he got a 3500+ and he like 220x11
Wow only $185 at newegg now.

Very nice.
BUMP FOR $185 :woot
ok i guess i got the best kit ever
i am now @ DDR520 3-3-2-7 @ 2.6vdimm only using the most amazing bios every 704-2BTA and it is stable prime for 30min ( test 5 ) SuperPi 8m & 32mb
i recommand this bios for everyone using a DFI LanPArty NF4 based mobo
gonne try for more fsb or tighter timings but not now cause i need to sleep
Prime has a #5 test? I think you mean memtest, even then memtest doesn't test windows stability.
For those looking to buy this ram, newegg has it right now for 185
Bought a pair from newegg..
Hope it clocks good!
ya sorry i meant memtest
and for windows test i did tets using prime for 1 hour and before i did 2 runs of SuperPI 32mb and 1 run of 8mb
will test gaming stability but as soon as i get my 7800GT since i am working now on a pci v/c :S
Got some sticks coming to me. Hopefully will be good.
