I think that happens when it's not so stable. I have had some that don't even read the slots at all (like the one below), but it was definitely dual channel.

Sorry Benny, this is a whole 1.6MHz faster :D

i dont think these entries should be accepted as they are not really true dual channel runs :confused:

Why aren't they true dual channel runs? By your thinking, that one I post must've been run with no sticks then? :)

The slot info is just DIMM info which the validation isn't reading due to instability, doesn't mean the sticks aren't there. IMHO, the important part is the RAM section where it says DDR2 Dual Channel (or Single Channel). Regardless of what the slot info says (or doesn't say), I don't think there's any way to fake the number of channels since it's set at boot :shrug:

sort of like a crippled dual channel :p:
but i guess this comp is for a screenshot/validation type purpose

all these number and stuff make me want to try it out lol

if i get a chance i'll play with the dominators but i dont think they can even hit 700 lol...my sticks are more CAS4 benching based than CAS5

Mine's doing the same thing. When it does, I'm barely able to get the validation, then the crash.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like that it doesn't show either, but I don't think it's detrimental in this case ;)

Light those sticks up :) I'll bet they do 700 in this board...does crazy stuff with mem. I dropped my 6400C3s in and they booted to the desktop 600 4-4-4-8 with 2.4V. I also had 4 sticks running 666MHz 5-5-5 at just 2.2V too, which really impressed me.

Same here, kind of. I can get a validation file higher, but when I try to submit, it's corrupted and I get the "please update CPU-Z..." I have to just keeping validating every couple FSB until it locks/reboots and then try to submit and see what worked :D

It doesn't have anything to do with whether it's dual channel or single channel. It's dual channel, it's just so unstable that CPU-Z can't read the SPD info off of the RAM. It captures the speed and the fact that it's dual channel from the northbridge just fine.

urgh i can't get pass 690 atm. I think i will start trying now with DKX chips. I hope they get a little higher. I already nuked one Mushkin dimm so far.

urgh. I know the compo is about raw MHz, but 5-15-15 is just NASTY

lol nice start on the MHz though!!

discussion point: "Persons employed by or in a similar relation to GIGABYTE Technology, their subsidiaries or to companies participating on the preparation and organization of the whole Competition as well as members of their families, are nonetheless excluded from participation."

Does this affect the guys sponsored by/representing at National level/ doing review work etc for Giga?
