Nice results, well done :up:
Anyone used these on an AMD based system? Looking to match highspeed ddrII mem with Deneb to see performance gains, but for the time being want to try this with the 9950 in my sig.
For your board and Phenom get the Kit I have in my sig and Flash the SPD with Tony's Modified Phenom 1066 SPD:yepp: You want low voltage Memory with Phenom
hecktic
Share SPD please, thank in advance.
From what I have understood the only difference between the kit you have and I have is the heatsink.Quote:

On a few strikers/p5n32e-sli's and 1 eVGA, I was able to recreate this problem...Quote:

I usually found when I got to this stage I'd just about pushed enough juice into
RAm and was running hot.
After going back to everyday settings, did not need to reformat windows, everything was back to normal.
Also, I won't go into what the ram can and can't do, every kit is different,
what ever you were able to do with CL6, you should be able to do the same, give
or take a few mhz in CL5, because both the board and RAM don't seem to scale well
over CAS5.
My local store was advertising your kit with the heat spreaders already on them?
Another point is I don't beleive the board ever limited you unless you couldn't get
enough juice into the NB due to heat, which is why I watercooled
the NB and after that it overclocked RAM like a dream.
It's a shame the original kit died, it should have been a great clocker, your CL4 frequency was
excellent anyway, I wish I had a kit I could run daily at 560-600mhz CL4.
I just grabbed a set of there 1300 from MemoryC last week for my P5K Prem system. I have a set of there 1200 which can do 1380 on that same board so I would guess this stuff might break 1400 with some work, I will let you know when it arrives.
How much vDIMM do you need for your 1200s to do 1380? My Team 9600 need over 2.52V to do 1300 Memtest stable. I suppose if I just wanted to boot and bench, I'd need a lot less.Quote:

If you are benching at a high ram freq you will find out real quick just how much juice is required to maintain ram stability and that usually is more then you might initially think.:)
I just got in another set of Teamgroups D2 1300 and so far it runs fine at 668fsb 5-5-5-15 on 2.50v. I have not tried anything crazy high yet as I am still breaking them in but they seem pretty decent.:)
I'm now lusting after these things. I ordered a set of 9600's from MemoryC on Monday. They came today but I missed the FedX guy :(! That was fast considering they shipped from Ireland to Chicago in two days. Well I'm setting my alarm early tomorrow to make sure I'm up.
Only problem is I'm going to have to use my 680i board until I either get my P5Q system back from my brother or buy a new P45 just for these guys. Seems I should have more than enough components around here to build another PC.
Can't wait.

That's an impressive overclock on your CPU there. What are you cooling that with?Quote:

My CPU has its own loop with a PA 120.3 rad and fuzion block so temps never get scary.
Damn I killed my Windows installation trying to hit 900Mhz 3-3-3-8. Now I need to do a complete reinstall.
:D I killed my Windows install three times in two weeks once ago...Quote:

use memtest test #5 its quick then you can do a full passQuote:

how do you run single test(#5,#7,#1)everytime i boot with this disc it just starts running the default tests?and i dont see an option to set up any test,cause when i stop it it just reboots.any help or advice and or instructions?
I've already taken this kit to 1250 5-4-4-13 but it really needs a lot of voltage for anything beyond that. I'm using a 680i and it's really starting to show it's age. This kit laughs at 2.5v and that's all this board can dish out without modding it..Quote:

I need a another P45.
Yeah, 680i is very old now, that's why I changed my board too.Quote:

Which CPU are you using? Would you post a screenshot?
Edit: Okay, just checked your sig, you're using the Q6600 I assume? Please post a screen with Everest, CPU-Z and Memset!
I've never been a big memory overclocker but I've really become fascinated by it lately, I'm trying to learn what I can. There are so many combination's that can help or hurt that it's a bit overwhelming. One thing is for sure though, this RAM has exposed all of my motherboards weaknesses.
Actually it was C4 at 1110Mhz that was able to break 10K in Everest. While this RAM seems to get along alright with my 680i it doesn't like certain dividers. It refuses to boot into Windows period at 1:1 although the 680i does seem to have a couple of FSB holes below 1333 . Maybe next week I'll pick up a EP45-UD3P.
1300Mhz 6-6-6-18 2.35v

1280Mhz 5-4-4-10 2.40v

1110Mhz 4-3-3-8 2.45v

Look towards the top of the screen, there are hints on what key to press for advanced options. If I remember correctly.Quote:

Actually you press C for the configuration and use the number 0 to back out as ESC reboots your PC.Quote:

I'm curious to know as well. My TG 9600 needs 2.5v (my mobo's max VDimm) for 1280Mhz stable with the NB voltage set to 1.55. Anything beyond that it needs more. I could see pushing 2.7v-2.8v easily.Quote:

I have a small fan blowing on them but even with them at 1260Mhz-1280Mhz 2.5v they're barely even warm which is rather unusual. I'm gonna to take them off and see if it even makes a difference with them open to the air.
