I got the same kit in today.

Nice results. You think 620MHz CAS4 32MB is possible?

[Noob-ftw]

Awesome results man! I was going to get a set, but I can't afford it at the moment.

Amazing Cas 4

Amazing Cas 4

yeap...
now let's see you lower tras and trfc

[PanteraGSTK]

I should get mine on monday. This thread is making me wish I had ordered them earlier. Awsome numbers.

[eva2000]

amazing stuff just what i need cas4 @600+ mhz hehe... might need to pick up a pair before i start my phase change adventures again - gotta have the tools in place for benching

how tight can you go on sub timings at 600mhz 4-4-4-4 ? need something that can do cas4 with tight sub timings... best right now is my supertalents

@600Mhz 5-4-4-4 4-24-3-10-6-10 at 2.6v
- memset v3.2 tweaked
- no maxmem tweak!



but i want tighter timings LOL

[ineedaname]

man i wish i had a pair of ram that could get close 2 that.

[zbomb5610]

just got my set today, seems like it doesn't do 4-4-3-4 1036 @ 2.2v, which sucks since my crucial anni's did that no problem.

Tried your timings. Cas 4 with 2.45 vdimm bios. Time is rather poor but mem wil do it

Where's Gautam? He got a set yesterday too!

[theteamaqua]

wow sweet RAM , tyoo bad i already pull the trigger on Tracer 8500 for $139

[Noob-ftw]

Where's Gautam? He got a set yesterday too!

-Collin-

He did 700mhz with 2.7V on ocforums.

[Gautam]

I got that posted in the 700MHz club here as well...don't wanna hijack loc.o's thread here but so far I've just been having fun running at sub 13M, sub 3.6GHz with these sticks. That 700mhz shot was so emotionally draining you wouldn't believe it, lol. I have the Tracers btw, they seem completely equal to the non-tracers, cept for the bling of course.

[theteamaqua]

wow awesoem results

[luihed]

Nice clock guys...... Can I assume these are better than the annis at max mhz?........ Ive always wanted them annis and this is the first time I get a chance of buying one but these 8500 are looking too good......

Did you get a chance to open them up to see if these are GKX or GMH?

[Viss]

Id get these over the aniversary edition.

Very nice Gautam thats what im looking after wil give it a shot soon, wil need a clean install at least

[Viss]

625mhz large FFT 2.225 vdim bios:


650mhz 32M dual:


3-3-3 1M with 2.45 vdimm & boot 401:

[Gautam]

This stuff is indeed beautiful at CAS 3.

Just a tip though, use 3-4-3 instead of 3-3-3 and your times will be way faster.

[erwinz]

wowowo.. very nice chips..

Its 1333 strap trfc 3 seems to work on that one.

[Viss]

Used the timings from above 32 run to see how much vdimm i need for 9x400 2/3 32M. Times not good enough for low clock challenge but mem perhaps for low vdimm challenge

Boot from bios:

4-4-4-4-4 25-10-10-10-11

Memset for:

4-4-3-4-4 4-24-3-10-10-4-8-6-4

2.350 vdimm bios:


2.325 vdimm bios:


2.30 vdimm bios:


And lowest so far for 32M 2.275 vdimm bios:

[Infa]

This is impressive i bought a pair of 1gb
getting it tomorrow, and seeing this is nice :P

see how mine goes then...can post it later.

[maxwedge]

Wow
Those are just the cas 5 8500 sticks right?

[ineedaname]

I think u should try joining the 700mhz club :P
