Running 2x 512 at speeds close to DDR600.

Tip:

Run preamble latency at 8ns and Max async. Latency at 5 ~ 6ns.

If I try to run preamble latency at anything other than 5 I can't POST. Is this common for week 31 TCCD LE's?

Hello everyOne !
I got my G-skill LA (440) 2x512 from Newegg.com, and I try to test thoses sticks with Memtest86+ on
Athlon64 3500+ 0.13µ (CPU ratio set to x8, or x9)
Epox 9NDA3+ Nforce3 Ultra
When I test one stick at the time,(in single-chanel) then I can hit 300Mhz 1T cas 2.5-4-4-8 noproblemo ! freeError in Memtest86+ V1.51
But when I tried to run both sticks together (in Dual-chanel) then I get a thousand of errors after 2 or 3 minutes runing Memtest86+ even I tried 1T or 2T I still have alot of errors, so I seted down to 290Mhz, 275Mhz, 265Mhz, or even at 250Mhz 2.5-3-3-6 still get errors, what's wrong ? is my Gskill sticks is nogood in Dual-chanel, or something else ? someOne can help me out with this problem ? what can I do to get it run in Dual-chanel

[fareastgq]

ok, got my gskill LE's today, bad news, 1 stick has bad memory address, cannot even boot up windows past 200 fsb with 1 stick. if I try to oc it past 230, I get a blue screen, (and the computer restarts when it does boot up to windows) the other stick boots up fine at 200 - 230, past that, it simply just does not work anymore. Both sticks together just would not boot up, period, this is due to the stick with the bad address that blue screens. This is on a known and tested rig which can do 260 fsb at 2 2 2 timings with no memtest errors, I can also hit 275-300 if I use lower multi's with 1 stick, so I know it's not my system. I didn't even run memtest as it would be a waste of time. Help me out here OPB, I simply need a dual channel set that will perform as advertised in dual channel. I feel like I got the sticks that newegg got for rma's or somthing, cause if these are new sticks.... well... I'm very dissapointed. I had very high hopes. Btw, I tried 2.5 4 4 8 and 2.5 3 3 8, it didn't matter which timings I tried, also, the spd timings where 2.5 4 4 8 in the bios, I guess I got some sticks that were supposed to be LA or somthing? maybe someone just rma'd them and stuck the stickers on them when they sent them back, heh, I don't know...But this rig is going to be a show rig and display rig, it has to be able to run. I DON'T want to rma back to newegg, I fear I'll get the same thing again. $280 down the drain..Help me out? thanks.

i'll give it one more shot. i had only cas-rascas-trp-trfc-trc set manually, everything was at auto. and i just simply can't boot into windows. memtest will run without an error, but it won't go into windows.

well, it appears it wasn't the memory, the system did the same with 3 different pairs. and all the other pairs, and this gskill run like a champ in my Athlon xp rig....

bad dfi ultra-d. gskill rocks!

No one can tell me what can I do ? to be able to run mine LA in dual-chanel

big thanks kevin for exchanging my bad LE stick. thanks also for handpicking a new set that does 600 @ 2.5 3 3 6. system is running faster than ever....

cheers

Hello

Here I have some problems with my 1 gb of GBLA.
I can't drive them up to DDR 600 with 2.5 3 3 7 at any voltage, and so 2.5 4 3 5 is not that better.

My adata PC 4500 were doing much better.

Rig
Mobo : DFI NF4 Ultra D rev 2.0 : 310 beta 2
CPU : Winnie 3000+
Ram : 2x512 Gskill GBLA

Settings
VDDR a 2.9v

I've tried Idle Cycle limit a 256 and twtr a 3 : no way

If you have ane idea please help me

Don't using to much Vddr. Try 2.7~2.8v and see if the errors drop.

Memory controller? Maybe one of you GSkill guys shows write up a FAQ on how to identify mem. controller problems.

[EclectiK]

Well I'll try with that vddr, I'll let you know.

@Ivan : I don't think it come from the mem controller. I'll try with a venice in a few days then we'll know...

Thx for support.

Im next.....
2x256 GSkill DDR600 LA 440, I have never been able to get these sticks to run at 1T. I have tried them with 4 different winchesters and 1 newcastle and 3 different mobo's
AN8 Fatal1ty, DFI Ultra-D, MSI Neo2.

HELP...... The last test was the newcastle core at stock default timings & speed at 1T Prime & Super PI would fail instantly.

What to do....?

EDIT: I'm just gonna RMA these sticks to NewEg and get replacements.

Um the gskill is picky in the an8 however i have found the sweetspot timings that work on it if anyone wants the timings feel free to PM me

[A_X]

Finaly got my new set in mail today! All seems to well! (TCCD 440 LE), except for the fact that my Neo4 won't run DC anymore all of a sudden... But that's a different issue I suppose. Ram is okay!

[jcniest5]

OPB, you've got PM. I hope you still read this thread. I really need RMA if you get my PM. Thanks...

I have had some issues with my 4400 le They recently quit running anything above 268 fsb on my 3000 winchester. They were prime stable at 310x8 and now they will do nothing above 268 at any multiplier.Tried a 3200 winchester same issue, Tried a new 3700 and still no go above 268 fsbat any multiplier This is where i run day to day. Not really sure what happened to them but anything above 268 is a no go on all 3 processors.I would think that this eliminates the CPU as part of the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you double check the bios, maybe you changed some important settings. Have you tested both modules at running 275MHz 2.5-3-3-7 and do they both fail? In many cases only one is defective, this will inflict both modules in dual channel.

[ccokeman]

Been through the bios a million times and have checked my settings against the form that i use to keep all of my settings down so that i dont miss anything, Will check again though. . I'll try testing one at a time to see if that makes any difference.

Update* 1 will do 272x9 1 will do 302x9 both well under the CPU's capabilities. It maxes out at 2.85ghz. Testing prime95 on the Good mudule at 302.

[ccokeman]

passed prime 95 at 302x9 for 16 hrs on priority 10. Looks as though 1 is a little shifty. Still no go if i try and run them any higher than 268 fsb together. Tried the yellow slots just to see if it made any difference(none).

[perry_78]

DamienKC, now whilst I am no guru at memory, if you're running a DFI NF3 board, the fault could be there. I saw several people who for the love of god could not get dual channel to work in the combination with a DFI NF3 board.

[TuKo]

I can't get my GBFF kit stable at 270MHz... 2.5-3-3-7... at 2.6v it won't boot, at 2.7v I get BSOD while booting, at 2.8v I get those "page errors" and at 2.9v only SuperPi isn't stable. Any clue ?

[Supershanks]

G-skill LA runs better on 754 than 939 ?????
need help please

[Onepagebook]

Tuko, did you set exactly same parameters as you post the a64tweaker here under bios? if so, as my experience, you won't boot in windows.

supershank,I check the problem you post on the gskill forum, not really sure what your
problem is, PM me if you need further help.
