$79.99 G.Skill F3-12800CL6D-4GBXH (2x2GB) 1.5v @ DDR3 2133 CL7!

Yeah I kinda thought that's what you meant. Not all the time but once in a while when I restart it powers off then back on. Always thought it was a bois glitch.

Thanks for confirming
I'm with you, I too think it is a bios issue.

[crossg]

Did some testing with my second chip which maxes out at 53X. 1088 @ 47x, 1083 @ 52x and 1070 @53x all tested at 7-10-8-27. DDR 1.6v.Tried 1088 at 53x but SPI had errors. Just posted for those inquiring minds.

Its a huge gamble, and if they dont run with as tight timings as my current ones, its a downgrade.

If it worked out it would be a sweet upgrade though.

Has anyone tried these out on X58 MB? I'm thinking about getting 2 sets of these and running 8gb in flex mode.

cl6 at 1.5v looks like top notch quality IC material.

The Gskill ECO 1600 7-8-7-24 kit runs the same at 1.65



however I just bought the same set that runmc has and they just arrived

You Dog(pun intended)! I was eying that kit but went with the $69 G.Skill Ripjaws F3-16000CL9D-4GBRM kit that in another post does 7-10-7-27 1T DDR3 2133. Recent Newegg 10% off memory sale, huh?

I just couldn't justify the $159 (actually I could have...)

yup exactly right on the newegg sale

I figured I had all hyper ic based sticks of dram and none of them seem to play well with my P8P67 Pro so it was a logical time to upgrade.

plus compared to what I payed for 12GB of SuperTalent 2000c7, the Gskill ram seems like a steal

How come memtest86 and in windows doesn't show what setting I've set into the bios. If I try XMP profile everything load fine into the bios (6-8-6-24) but show (8-8-9-24) in windows or memtest86. I've try many different setting but always load wrong ???

[bjuderas]

thx a lot man. i now have my ripjaws at 1866MHz with 1.5v. this was realy helpfull. thx again!

[LagunaX]

Run them at 2133!

[Ket]

These sticks are indeed awesome Mine do 8-10-8-25 1T @ 1.65v. I never tried shooting for CL7 as I couldn't be arsed at the time.

[RSC]

They should make an 8GB version of this kit.

[bjuderas]

@ LagunaX

i tried at 2133MHz but i saw no gain in games. so i have them now at 1866Mhz.

thx again

[dr_sharp]

I need to try these timings and speeds! This thread is the reason I bought this kit... thanks for the info!

[Demo]

My results with the 6-8-6 kit



I tried pushing it to 7-10-7-26-1T and I got lower scores lol!




Whats a good way to stress test the RAM's? ( that wont degrade the processor along the way )
I've tried running it at 1.500v 7-10-7-26-1T 2133Mhz and it completes Hyper PI 0.99b 32M and 1M tests w/o issues, so im guessing its stable?

I like http://hcidesign.com/memtest/ - only stresses RAM and is very prone to pick up instability and might do it in a sec or two even if it appears to be stable for normal use.

[dr_sharp]

memtest86 or ocz memtest86 are also good but you have to create a boot disk and it runs in a dos format outside of windows

Why your copying speed is so poor? Newer version gives that much different result? Here is my result @ 7-10-7-27 1T 2133MHz, totally stable.

[LagunaX]

Yeah the newer version is adjusted properly so scores are lower overall due to the updated version of AIDA64.

[Demo]

Yeah there seems to be a score difference between the older and newer version.

[Unsurper]

G.Skills are great overclockers even the low brand are nice, a lot of people buy the cheap ones and over clock them all the time.

[Demo]

Seems like im stable at 7-10-7-27-1T @ 1.500 vDIMM

EDIT:

Odd AIDA64 and HWinfo32 detects my vDIMM at 1.656.. I'll double check later as Im sure I've manually set it to 1.500v

EDIT2:

After a few blending sessions its not really stabe at 1.500v next step 1.600v

[Demo]

-wrong thread-

Did you get your ram stable at 1.6? Mine seems stable at 7-10-8-27 1.6V... same as OPs test.

Has anyone managed to reach 2300 with this memory set?

[Demo]

7-10-70 27 @ 1.5800v seems to be my stable point.

[Frost_Bite]

Sorry to drag up a nearly dead topic...but I just received a set of this RAM and I'm really struggling with them. They post and run perfect at DDR3 1600 6-8-6-24 1T @ 1.5v, but will not run anything over that. 1866 and 2133 result in a 221 BSOD before Windows loads. I've tried 1.5-1.65v and they all result in the same outcome.

I am on a Gigabyte UD4 B3 with F3D BIOS if that helps. Thanks!
