Im thinking either muskin mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model 996599 - Retail
or mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model 996593 - Retail
or CORSAIR DOMINATOR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X4096-8500C5D - Retail
should i stick with w/ 800 or go higher? i wouldnt mind running my fsb higher and getting my cpu @ 4gh or 3.8

Shawn,
Thanks for the quick reply, this may sound stupid but, I have a black & red theme going on with my WC system. Do they make that in a different color or any other ram that is black or red that you could also recommend? :cool:
edit:
found the F2-8500CL6D (there red) but timing is 6-6-6-18 :(
I believe these are the same, just a different heat sink.Quote:

Finally got my beast of a chip at 3.6 prime stable.
It was NB temp causing my issues before. Going with the slower Kingston RAM instead of the Ballistix seems to have kept the NB temp under control.
seem slightly off... heres mineQuote:

And, any advice to convert ( i mean ) flash maximus formula to Rampage formula using afudos and one of those bios. The last link posted on first page was to a beta bios 0403 - that's pretty old. Any performance test with those bios ...
It's just download and flash it, or it need to be modded first, or any other thing.
Thanks a lot for your Help

Hey for stable my overclock whit 4X1Gb @1000Mhz i need 1.55v VNB!
I think high this voltage :S
With two modules 2X2Gb necessary lower VNB or same for 4X1Gb ???
i ran my 2x2 @ 1.47.. a little lower then my 4x1 @ 1.51 set in bios which is about 1.55/56 real..
dang i got over night past prime blend at 4.5 with my settings. i fail occt about 1/2 hour in.. i upped the volts a little more to see if i could get occt but temps got to 77 eeeeks, turned it off.. occt is a animal, load temps 10-15 degrees higher then prime blend.. i have played games on the settings @ 4.5 all day long for days with out any crashes or noticeable problems and never see my temps get above 55 on a hot day.. i just went through 10 passes of intel burn test at the 4.38 settings 63/64 degrees no problems but at 4.5 the temps got up to 77 so i shut it off..
Yo guys,
I had some problems with my adi sounddriver soundMAX so deinstalled it.
Does anybody have a good one for my converted Rampage Formula?
Can I use the V610X6480_zip diver?:shrug:

cpu vid is 1.35 :(
cpu is cooled by a true and stays under 56*C under load trying not to go over the recommended 1.5v vcore
to increse FSB speedQuote:

E6600 needs much vcore to stable 3.6~3.8Ghz, >1.45 you need more cooling CPU for this !

Yes for my self did some magic back then and i was able to OC with lower Volts.
After the 0902 trip i got issues back in 0803 but with higher volts.
go with the 0803 and i think you will be just fine
