Whoa! Busy bee, aren't we?

This is going to be very helpful for those that constantly ask questions "what memory works or not..." Thanks for your hard work, G.S T

[Chura]

Nice :-)

[overfusion]

i have problem with this ram. At 400 FSB the RAM can't go at 1000 with 4-4-4-12, but 5-4-4-10 yes. At 333 FSB ram goes 4-4-4-12 at 1000Mhz. I can't go over 440 FSB with ram 1:1.
There will be some tweaks....

[GSKILL TECH]

1st update to lastest bios
2nd let fsb,nb voltage be auto, 1.5v for sb.
then 400 1000 problem should solve
same for 440 1:1

It is sad than my HZ (F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ ---DDR2 800) don't post on P5B DLx WiFi (bios 614)
I had to use 2x256 memory to see post
After I set timings and div they worked fine
I hate P5B
Sold it and don't have good mobo (daying Bad Axe only)

do you know any reason why it is not post?
let me know your sn
thx

[dinos22]

i've been telling people to get HZ sticks from day 1 of my iNTEL experience.......i've used other RAM and everything was spotty except for these HZ sticks...........they just work and perform really really well

congrats on a great product G.Skill.........would be nice if it wasn't AUD$400 but i guess you get what you pay for

OK,i like this memory, but with this board alot of things are wierd to me, maybe i dont understand but here is what im getting, at 400x9 1:1 divider my bandwidth is around 7300, but at 500mhz with 2:3 divider my bandwidth is 6900, i dont get it, also at 4:5 divider 400x9 my bandiwdth is around 7800 but it doesnt pass super pi 32m dual, also it needs real horible timings to reach those speeds, at 2:3 i can run 500mhz at 4-4-4-12, but at 500mhz with 4:5 divider i can only run 5-4-4-10 and it doesnt pass memtest, even at 2.45 volts. anyone else? also its the build 0606 i believe they should be the micron d9???????

Same here but 8000 2GB HZ

p5b dlx, bios 0614 they won't post unless voltage is set to 2.3V manually using another stick.

They do post with stock bios (03? or smth) though, I haven't tried 0507

that is weird... the old bios post but not new bios....
try 0609 bios and see

I think it's a metter of SPD
I tried stock bios and 614
I discovered that PC6400 2x1GB HZ have at least 3 different SPD (only mine didn't post on P5B Dlx)
My sticks SN is 0606051016787 and 0606051016788
Compare 3 x SPD

maybe you can try to use the "post" one spd dump and burn into your "not post" hz and see
from your sn i know it is D9 for sure.
d9 not booting correctly in p965 that is very odd case

few days later i will have better sitting for this mobo and i will keep adding more and more mobo testing

Hi

I have bought G.Skill F2-6400Phu2-2GBNR 1024x2
i have the pc overclockd to 4 Ghz so im happy the mems holding out at 1:1 @ 1000 Mhz....

could you direct me to any better timings as im not to cluey on that sort of stuff and im sure when you look at the mem timings you would be able to tell me what to change..
atm im at 6.6.6.18. 6. 42 15. 31. 15. 31 i think thats the correct order default is
5.5.5.15 .6 42 10 10 10 10 Cheers

[GSKILL TECH]

suggest 5-5-5-15-4-42-3-11-7-13 with 2.1~2.2v on DDR2 1000 but no guarantee

[HoriWanderFuLL]

Thanks alot....Yes it works fine.

[GSKILL TECH]

please use 3-11-7-13 for all subtiming.
i will post new screen for setting soon
we are planing to move so phone, testing platform are all down.

[Stx]

^ ah right, are those subtimings for the f2-6400phu2-2gbnr kits only or 2GB HZ as well?

3-11-7-13 is good for all DDR2 800

[Kakulukia]

May I ask how you found out that the subtimings are 3-11-7-13??
The other tech guys say: 3-10-5-13, and 3-11-5-14.....
Because I really want to run as 'tweaked' as possible.

SO this should run: (divider 4:5)
4-4-4-12-4-42-3-11-7-13

Good question, im wondering the same thing.

we looked into the motherboard timing and believe that is 100% 24/7 stable. we don't give tweaked timing since not all the user understand and might run into problem

[fasttruck860]

Anyone know how I can get my 6400HZ to boot on this board in dual channel? Currently only working in single channel mode and only in the B1/B2 slots. I get no post at all with dual channel.

if not working in dual channel, eitehr your board has problem or something wrong with ram. set to FSB266 and DDR2 533 and see dual channel works or not
