OCZ 3700 Eb @ DDR 620 /320 Mhz

**xgman** · 07-08-2004, 04:40 AM

OCZ has tested the EB's above 3v and it doesn't really help any more after that. At only 2.6v I can run stable at 252 or more, sync 3-3-2-7-1T dual ch. (2x512) on a 939 board. I think optimal voltage would probably be 3 or 3.1v at max. Otherwise they will run unnecessarily hot. A fan over them is really almost a must.

p4z: No one as got better from 3V to 3.5V.... I myself didnt got a single MHz from 3.2V to 3.55V...

These RAM's are strange but sure good....

**p4z1f1st** · 07-08-2004, 06:22 AM

hm...ok....really good results despite all that....

maybe in the next time come PC4000-EB with new/another chips, not just seperated, like the 3500/3700-one

My 2 x 512 sticks have gotten better over the course of the past week, must be some kind of burn-in effect.

When I first fired it up a week ago the first thing I did was lower the multi and find the memory limit. Using P95 I determined that it would do 247 @ x-2-3-3, 1T, 2.8v. Trying 248 or trying x-2-2-3 at 247 caused errors in P95 fairly quickly.

Just for giggles I tried pushing it further last night. I still couldn't do x-2-2-3 at 247, but it took 3.5 hours to crash instead of 2 minutes. At x-2-3-3 it ran P95 overnight at 252. I fired up 3DMark this morning...hopefully it'll still be going when I get home. If so, I'll push a little more.

somebody test eb's on DFI s939?

**mcnbns** · 03-08-2005, 08:12 AM

Holy thread resurrection, Batman!

I've been wondering the same thing as Mrki... Anyone?

**jackolantern** · 03-08-2005, 09:59 AM

I have been reading thru this whole thread it's looooong, and I just don't get it. I picked up BH-5 a couple weeks ago. 2x256 HyperX-DDR3500 for 80euro including shipping, It's running at stock voltage @400Mhz 2-2-2-5 Sandra's memory benchie puts it at 5232MB/s this is faster than any I have seen in this thread.

I haven't got to turning up the voltage for a 1:1 overclock, but I don't get what the point is of running CL3@300Mhz if it's only going to be slower!

You run it in DUAL CHANNEL, that's the difference.
BH-5 can't run CL3, and it's not lowering performance alot!
Remember, EB loves CL3, and BH-5 loves CL2.

Yep, it works awsome! This board can supply the needed power, unlike the most NF3 boards.

hmm i look to test it

**thegooner** · 03-08-2005, 04:06 PM

I use OCZ 3700EB with my DFI NF4 Ultra-D and it works fine. Using the bios that shipped with the board.

Still testing but have had 262 1:1 3.3.2.8 1T at v2.9

test with 3.1-3.3v

**WeStSiDePLaYa** · 03-08-2005, 07:41 PM

damn, my 3500eb is only doing like 265 3-2-2-8-10-15 maybe ill try lower volts?

Try running with only 1 stick of memory in instead of two like people have been doing in this thread, you'll barely get 2600MB/s.

Yeah I will

Is that a weak attempt at humour?

**_King_Pin_** · 05-13-2005, 08:26 AM

(thread resurrection again

)

can you post some A64 tweaker pics with your timmings?? I´m have some problems to get my EB doing just 250 3-3-2-5....

**killingspreez** · 05-13-2005, 09:49 AM

that's not that impressive....okay this RAS2 @ 3xxmhz is amazing but with tccd based memory u get much higher bandwidth and u don't need that crazy amounts of volts

look at this, also s754 singechannel :

**_King_Pin_** · 05-13-2005, 10:12 AM

this thread began in june-2004!! in that time EB was really good (and for me I think this mems still are good) and I think nobody knew what was a tccd chip...lol

somebody picked this thread sometime ago (march-2005) and I picked it again just to ask people to put some pics with timings with this mems and DFI NF4 939....
and... what bios do ya use with this mems.

**killingspreez** · 05-13-2005, 10:16 AM

ah okay sorry

mfg

**cujo** · 08-04-2005, 12:10 AM

no one has a64 tweaker screenies? i just got this board as well. 250 seems stable with all timings on auto at 2.8v.

**iboomalot** · 08-04-2005, 01:06 PM

mine runs 256 at 3-3-2-8 in dual channel
