OCZ VX, Best Memory made since BH5!!

[TEDY]

using 618-2 now....sandra bandwidth burn in you mean memory burn in ? :=) thanks

what settings did you used pumpertot ?

i have 4 sticks to test till monday when i'll keep 2 for me....how can i determine 2 best of 4 ?

the ones that do highest on memtest 5 at 3.2V are the ones to keep.
yes memroy burn-in.

settings, well start with these in order in BIOS.

then you can maybe tighten some of:trc,trfc,twr,twtr,trtw,trrd,max async,read preamble once you find the highest stable clock.
e.g. trc=7 might be stable but may not. also I can run trfc14,max async 6ns,read preamble 4ns while others cant etc. so just experiment after finding highest speed poss after burn-in.

also try the 510-2 as i can clock about 10MHz higher than with 618-2 but may be different for you so find highest on 618-2 after burnin then try 510-2.

good luck and happy burning/oc.

just wondering which is better, the OCZ VX PC4000 1GB or the Mushkin Redline PC4000 1GB, im gonna be using it with an Abit AN8 Ultra and 3000+ venice

both are great have tried both.ocz rma and support is 2nd to none so id pick them for backup.

[TEDY]

after some burnin i get 245 at 3.2 , when i got they barerly did 240 at 3.2

yummi :=)

[[G.N.U.]Fragman]

100% stable with 1T 250FSB 2-3-3-6 @ 3.2 ..perhaps i can take it a little more...

[TEDY]

why 2-3-3-6 ???????????????????????????????????

[Aleman]

why 2-3-3-6 ???????????????????????????????????

Coz UTT-CH based OC´s higher with a little of looser timings.

um slightly out of place i spose but my ch-5 ram will do 265 2-2-2-5 3.3v (tis not ocz tho)

[TEDY]

Holly cow, this ram getting better and better after BURNING IN

Now i'm at 254 2-2-2-6 at 3.2v

I posted this on Bacchus's thread. These are VX3200 Gold Edition. No tendency to develop #6 errors at max clocks in either SC or DC, plus running 270x10 with default LDT and chipset voltage. Only needs 3.5 VDIMM too.

No burn in. If you include the 26' to run 32M, the sticks have a total of maybe 2.5 hours run time. I've never run them under 3.3 volts.

This is with my VX3200. Now running at 200Mh@3.2V prime "large, in place FFTs - stress ram". Is this good for burn in or should I use sandra memory loop.

Hi, to do 240mhz with the VX you will likely need at least 3.3v and a good power supply, although 507 passes and only 52 errors could indicate a heat issue. Do you have a fan blowing on your memory?


Running the Prime95 "Blend Test" is what is typically used for Windows stress testing.

[Moonman]

I removed a fan when I was measuring vdimm from a mosfet, so last 12 errors came in loop 586.
Before thist there were 40 errors, so it might be heat issue.

So you suggest to loop sandra mem?

Tnx for quick reply

dpont be so lazy.the previous page or one before that I explained how to burn in.read lazy man. :p

[Moonman]

Done, now burning at 246Mhz 2-2-2-8@3.35V
Tnx for guide.

no probs matey.
btw tRAS gives best bandwidth at 5 and I find it just as stable as a number >5.

[Jacke2k]

I have a smal question. I have burnd in my vx over the night at 2.2.2.7 200 mhz at 3.2 v. Then I tryed 240 at 3.4 v but i got some errors in mamtest. Sholud I try to burn them in at 240 whit 3.4 v ? Thay got real hot when I run memtest and I got no god cooling for them. The only cooling is the fan that is sitting on my xp120. Do you think i need to get more cooling ?

[Der_KHAN]

Do you think i need to get more cooling ?

yes.

[TEDY]

yuhu

DC 250 2-2-2-8 3.2v

slower ram in closest orange slot + better ram in farthest orange slot

[TEDY]

lol memtest#5 no errors but when i try superpi......doesn't even start, where's the catch ???

[Aleman]

TEDY @ tried tRFC @ 16?

[TEDY]

yes that's why it's weird

here's pic of A64 TWEAKER

[Jacke2k]

How did you get it to 254 whit only 3.2 v ? My need 3.4 and still I get errors in memtest. I got 12 errors after 9 h of memtest.

[TEDY]

got lucky

[Jacke2k]

I want to be lucky some times to =( :P
