are you saying the modules are memtest stable at 250@3.2v, 260@3.3v?

Yea very nice! Tedy your ram seems to be doing good. I can't do 245 error free. Is that on your infinity? Is it actively cooled?
no 250 is fine @ 3.2 but 260 needs more time it is just the results ive gotten so far!
if it has a ^^ that means same voltage as b4. 258 and 260 are not good yet.
Bigtoe mentioned in another thread that the newer VX are doing better. He is getting some soon to test.
Thanks aCidbAbY, I have added your results and put you down as using a DFI nF3 754 board... let me know if I'm wrong.
cantankerous,
where did you read that... if these get much better we'll be seeing 270 2-2-2 on a regular basis :D
My Twinmos Speed Premium will do 257 in Dual Channel (socket 939) @ 3.3v... for now
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum 0412 with bios 1.4 (official)
AMD Athlon64 3500+ Newcastle @ 10x257@ 1.6v for now... mem won't go higher @ 3.3v yet...
Twinmos Speed Premium week 48 2x512 @ DDR514 2-2-2-5
OCZ Powerstream 520W adjustable PSU
Thanks Garrett, are your chips 44D,50D,60D?
Oh I forgot I'm sorry... 44D :)Quote:

I'll try 3.2 and 3.4V tomorrow.
Time to cranck the 3.3V line of my Powerstream up a little more. :D
well my first set OCed to 260 at 3.56-3.6vdimmQuote:

LPUT 250 i will try and get some better numbers this time.
this is a newer batch and they seem to be clocking better at lower voltage...
I removed the heatspreaders from my OCZ VX last night, it would do 260 at 3.4v but after about 5 passes would start creating errors....
After removing the spreaders it's been looping over night without any errors!.... This stuff is great!
I think the next time I'll upgrade my memory is if any DDR comes out that can do 300HTT @ 2-2-2-5 (1T) :banana:
Maybe one day.... :D
So the DFI is compatible with the DDR Booster? I've been looking for this info for like 2 weeks :toast:Quote:

So removing the heatspreaders really does help eh? Must be a heat issue. Too bad you lose warranty from that. Heatspreaders should be an option.
Well the $h1t has hit the fan if you ask me :(Quote:

Could it be that my A64 mem controller doesn't like the 2 double sided dimms @ 1T anymore? I mean I even get errors @ 200 2-2-2-5 1T :(
Putting my 2x256 BH5 back in results in no errors whatsoever...
If I try only 1 doublesided DIMM (doesn't matter which 1 of the 2) then I get no errors at all...
rabbi please correct
it's not SP but 2 sticks just happens to work DUAL too...hehe...
AA4T / 05034
i can do 25 loops with 1 stick at time at 3.3vdimm
will do some burn in at weekend.
Well,
After my earlier results, which looked promising, I'm kinda disappointed with the end result.
1*512MB
3.22V : 250Mhz (not to bad, IMO)
3.35V : 253Mhz (gained 1Mhz compared to last time)
3.46V : 255Mhz (not that impressive)
As you can see, increasing VDimm by 0.25V only gave me 5Mhz more, not that much after all.
Didn't have much time in testing the 2 sticks together, but managed to do 1, at 3.35V.
3.35V : 246Mhz (+1Mhz compared to last time.) Any higher would result in errors.
That's it for now. Results on the Neo2 might follow later (can't promise anything)
ok i tried to burn in at stock speeds and the 2-3-3-8 stock speed (200) errored out @ 3.2 vdimm.. WTF is up with these things?
then i went back to 2-2-2-10 and it was fine wierd it isnt running at stock speeds..
maybe because i burned in at 2-2-2-10?
new one BTW
200mhz @ 3.2vdimm 2-2-2-10
EDIT:: im thinking of getting another set and finding the best between the 2 :confused: do you guys think it is worth it? i mean this one seems to be acting wierd right off the bat. :confused:
Garrett,
try clearing CMOS and then loading optimised defaults... sounds like a timing has changed maybe
TEDY,
done :)
Jupiler,
updated yours too :)... sounds like it's your board/cpu holding you back right now
aCidbAbY,
standard timings are 2-3-3 @ 2.6v or 2-2-2 @ 3.2v.... no where does it say 3-3-3 timings as stock.
I dont think you need a new set though bro, yours are doing very good for not even being burned in yet... personally, I think it's your board/cpu causing the wierdness with CAS 3. If they work fine at 2-2-2 dont worry bout CAS 3 results... 256 @ 3.3v is above average I think and if sheeet does happen later on jus return them for an RMA
lol yeah i meant 2-3-3-8 sorry..
did you get the new one? 200mhz?
how long should i burnin?
also these new ones have OCZ in black on the side. my first set didnt have anything on the side just pressed into the heatsink..
Winbond chips never really liked to run at cas 3
I dont know much bout burnin to be honest... I have never seen a gain but I know of many who have, and I trust a lot of them. I've heard a few people say that 24-48hours is a good timeframe, then see if they have improved and burnin at the new speed.Quote:

Previously you said they did 250 MHz :confused:
