Very nice clock, 970MHz CL6 is great! :up:
Elpida Hyper of course, what else? ;)Quote:

You didn't state voltage. Ofc they wont make it with low voltage, but it is not impossible and I'm positive we'll see it when imcs and boards are getting better at the latest.
I don't think the existing D9 will be better on the newer revisions, low voltage will always be better from now on.Quote:

FYI my D9GTR won't even boot at that voltage. ;)
I highly doubt that and if elpida is trashing d9 now.....then it will continie to trash it as if d9 improves so will elpida ;)Quote:

Well you did suggest that they might be d9's that the results were done with.Quote:

I finnally found some D9GTR's!:) Here some results (they also do 7-6-5-18 1T 1840MHz with 2v).

Very newbie question...
When you are pushing these sticks to these limits are you able to use them on a day-to-day basis like playing games, processing videos and so on?
Would I as a sorta gamer, but otherwise someone that wants a nice system need to push my memory to such limits?
I am looking to upgrade to a 965BE with the new Gigabyte board or the Crosshair III. But I am not sure on the memory and if I want to try to push this chip to 4.0 on good air cooling (if possible), would I need to get some kick butt memory to make that happen?
Sorry for the probably lamo question.
No, it's not sensible to push your ram to the limit for 24/7 usage. Back down to a comfortable voltage and see where it lands. Make sure it's 100% stable by running HCI memetest. Nothing as annoying as unstable ram. :( (BSOD's)
Got yesterday.

Test later... when I get back my GD70 from RMA.:shakes:
Ok, I agree with that. With that said will I see any noticable differences when game playing say with get some GT's ($349) over some other nice sticks but not as OC'd?
What sticks would folks recommend and how many 2x2 4x2?
I currently have Mushkin, but will have to replace when I go to a DDR3 board.
I just want to get some nice sticks that I can push a little that will allow me to keep my 965 at or close to 4.0 if I can get it there and not have to break the bank.
Appreciate your thoughts.

i would also want to know which is better,
1800 CL8 or 1600 CL7
because i think that two is the most easily achieved ram speed at AMD platform. ofc to be used daily too :)
oh, and one more question. i have 2x2gigs of gskill trident 16000 CL9, it is possible to run stable @1800 CL8/1600 CL7 at "reasonable" voltage? (say, under 1,7v) because whatever i tried, i cannot run this ram @1600 CL7. important to note, i don't want to running this ram above 1,7v for daily use. the best i can get is 1600 8-7-8-16 @ 1,6v. i don't know what is that limiting my ram to run @ 1600 CL7. whether the kit or the skill my self :p:
i am a newbie and still confused about what first must to do when it come to OC'ing RAM
btw, thx for all the help here :)

You're gonna see the real difference once you start benching.
2x2GB will do, it's what most use nowadays. In conjuction with a 64bit OS of course. ;)
Sorry to say but you obviously haven't read well through this thread, have you?Quote:

Who did you see run 1800 CL8 here? :shrug:Quote:

Tight timings is best on amd, 1333 is enough with just 6-6-6, 1600 6-6-6 is better of course.
Your ram most likely has Elpida BBSE chips so you won't see much better results on them as you've already got from them.
Just ordered a 790XT-UD4P and a set of Corsair 2x2gb 1600s 7-8-7-20. Going to see how they do, and Ill post some benches when they get here.
sure i have read all page in this thread, but i thought that the answer would be more simple like "use this brand of memory", or "use the ram with XXX spec". beside of that, how do i know if the ram that i will buy is based on Elpida Hyper chips? :confused:Quote:

sory, i am totally newbie when it's coming to OC'ing ram :p:
if someone can show me link for what thread i must read first, it would be appreciated :yepp:
So how are Elpida doing with AMD? I've found DDR3 modules 1066mhz 7-7-7 http://www.elpida.com/en/products/de...10UE8BDF0.html are they worth buying or is it simply a waste of money? What I want to try and achieve is high clocks/tight timings
Maybe som1 here can make me decide finaly what 2x2gb memorykit i will buy! :)
Im ordering kit from mindfactor.de so kits witch is available there within one week, is ok. i was thinkin about 2x2gb 2000Mhz CL8 Kinston hyperX kit, but now i started hesitate. Does that kit have elpida hyper or BBSE ic's these days?
I was also lookin lilbit cheaper 2x2gb exceleram 2000Mhz CL7 kit. If som1 knows less than 200euros kit from there witch have hyper ic's let me know fast. Order goes out in 2 days and i dont wanna sell mems rightaway and order new ones :D
And at last, im going to use them with AM3,X58 and P55 platform.
whats the best budget memory kit with best potential OC for AM3? for around $100
im using a X4 620 to OC... how good is this IMC? i got an asus m4a785g evo mobo
I was thinking G.skill eco series or ripjaws? how about Adata gaming series
Getting past 940mhz dispite timings really depend on IMC..... 5-5-5-12 is doable, but 6-5-5-12 is maximum as for performance....
how about these budget Corsairs XMS3 1600 8-8-8-24 1.65v
$99 free shipping model: CMX4GX3M2A1600C8
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145263
seems like amd790FX/SB750 does not like high vdim too, with Asus Crosshair
had hardtime setting up old D9JNL blue sticks and the same with Gskill 4GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-12800 ECO 1.35v, the mobo only starts at 1.5v
gskill PI 12800 series did better but only at with one stick (these are a triple kit)
well i'm aming for OCz or Gskill
what's wrong with cellshock they stopped the business of Dram?
