If those Ripjaws can do 1800C8 I might consider buy one set, I just wait and see what you can do with those zsamz.
i cant get past 1600 even at cas 9
i should assume they are bad or ...:rofl::rofl:
edit:
1 stick is bad cant do 1333:rofl:
other stick can do 1828 so far fully stable cas8
ghost only 1 good stick
this is around max 1.8v
forget cas7
pl6
ghost i wont be ownin a set of ripjaws i dont think they are good enough compared to my patriot 2000 and 1800 sets
maybe the 1 good stick is not real good lol
i'm gonna wait till hyper prices settle
i got board to work with 8 gigs with acceptable bandwith:)
Guys, i got me a Rampage Extreme again from a webstore that was supposed to be refurbished (back from rma or something) but today i recieved it and it looks like it's brand new but it's a chines or japanese version! The text on the box and the manual are in chinese. :shrug:
Got it for a bargain so i'm not complaining but i'm just wondering, does the bios default to chinese or english?
Nice Chip there!
That's where I wanted to be. Prior to this memory I was stuck with unacceptable speed. Different modules and models brought me to the view that the issue was the memory controller. Finally the board died on me, (loss of a NB temp diode and halting the system) and I advance RMA'd it to get a new one very quickly. The new board was far better with memory, but still I could not reach high speeds and low latencies with 8GB.
So I am happy as well.
It feels great to be back on the Rampage Extreme again. :)
Did some testing and again 600FSB was a breeze...

The CSX Diablo's i got seem to need exceptional high voltage, 2.15V for DDR1800 7-6-5-18. :(
Maybe i have to get me some Corsair dominator GT's.
Btw, im running 4.5GHz at 1.32Vcore now, still have to test stability though. :)
Very Nice Zeus!! Back to the Dark Side, huh? I thought you sold all your Intel stuff?:shrug:
I did but sold the AMD gear and got me a new RE. Seeing Vivi breaking the 3D01 WR breaking on this setup proved a bit too much for me. :)
Shame i can't get the Diablo's running at decent voltage, 2.14V for daily use is a bit much.
I'm kinda interested in them tweaker shortcuts on ya desktop :) Diablos here do 2000mhz C8 at 2volts, I'm on 1204 bios... never even tried 600FSB on my board :( my Phase can't handle the cpu at 10X above 560FSB...
It's just Monteboy's SuperPi tweaker for doing copy waza, if you're interested, send me pm mate. ;)
That's a nice kit you got there, how much volts for that?
Been searching for a kit of Cellshocks but to no avail.
Now i ordered 2x1GB Ballistix 1800 8-8-8, let's hope it has some nice GTS chips on them.
I don't know what's up with the Diablo's, 1600 7-6-5 runs with just 1.85V but 1800 7-6-5 requires 2.15V! :eek:
i'm waitin on mr replacements of ripjaws
but i rather have a set of hypers to another set of d9gts
Hey guys new around here :). Just got my new rampage extreme, and i'll use my Q9650 on her. Im looking for a new ram kit for o/cing ;), what would you suggest? i've seen the new dual channel kits for i5/i7 such as G.skill ripjaws, are these worth of trying? Or should i go for a D9GTR kit like CSX diablos? Also, has anyone tried overclocking a 2x2 kit? As far as i read, REX doesn't like a lot 2x2 kit..Should i go for 4x1? Or maybe a 3x2 kit would be better?(i could keep it also for the future, when i'll upgrade at a X58 m/b) im kinda confused :shrug:
Thanks a lot!
PS: Sorry for my bad English..
I certainly like my Corsair Dominator 1866C7GT Hypers, they've been solid for months now, and are very flexible.
Here is a sample of my 2 x 2GB Hyper testing.

Here's my Q9650 on the REX with 2 x 2GB Hypers. The board didn't like running high ram speed with the quad, it changes the whole dynamic. At 4.1 - 4.3GHz, large FFT's were very hard to stabilize.

This is why i love the RE so much:

I haven't changed the tim under the heatpipe assembly yet, only added washers on the backside and a Swiftech NB max waterblock.
This board is just made for dualcores with 2 (or 4) x1GB Micron GTR/GTS. :)
I second that with the Micron GTR/GTS but I most say that RE is pretty good with quad also.
Sure, I had to feed it with a lot of juice to make it happen but sometimes itīs just worth it :cool:

Nice results guys, good work! :up::up: Thanks a lot for the advices!
@zsamz_ , nope, i didn't read the whole 99 pages of this thread, but the most of them, and thats the reason i asked about, because lots of people have tried new 2x2 kits on this m/b, but the results were not so good in contrast with 4x1/2x1. Of course i dont expect from my Q9650 to run higher than 500 FSB for 24/7 (actually have been running at 490 fsb on Evo for every day :D). I have access on a 4x1 set of Diablo's, so these are the first i'll try out, i'll inform about the progress :).
