GSKILL FLARE achieves highest AMD ram frequency

[youngpro]

hey all

Been playing with the ASUS Crosshair 4 and also the AMD Flare sticks, I noticed Jake from corsair put up some big numbers with GTX4 which are also PSC based. So I thought I would give a crack myself..

I have a few results here, YES I KNOW, the cpuz is a big red cross on it, but this is what happens sometimes especially when pushing memory. You can take my word for it or not I will definatly bench again in the coming days to try and improve my result but also get a nice validation without a red stamp on it!

32m and 1m are pushing the AMD boundaries also.. To be honest I did not expect this result from PSC or Flare but it is a great surprise! Please note NB freq is not relaxed here!

EDIT: After pushing these sticks again I am getting closer to 2400MHz but it is just out of my reach!

ASUS Crosshair 4
G.Skill Flare 2000 7-9-7-24 @ -50 subzero
Corsair HX1000
Thuban 1090X @ single stage cooling
WD Velicoraptor 300GB




CPUZ validation of ram @ 1184 9-11-9-30
CPUZ validation of ram @ 1174 9-11-9-30

1m @ 1139.9


32m @ 1095mhz






cpu @ -50~, ram @ -90~

Wow, very impressive!
Thuban has a nice IMC!

[ViViD]

Nice Clock Bro

Must Be On Subzero? Or In AMD Platform Should Be?

[Oliver]

wow, thats very strong numbers you got there James

PSC is all over

Must Be On Subzero? Or In AMD Platform Should Be?

If Your are reffering to the DIMMs subzero, fresh PSC ICs scales very well under cold (PSCs seen benched -180 with benefit). None the less its strong benching shown here

If the CPU is on phase, then NB for 32M should be around 3200, 3300-3400 for 1M

But I know this is all about ram clocks and....

That's spectaular! I havent seen clocks that high on AMD before...

[WaterFlex]

good job and nice numbers!

[Hondacity]

nice speeds

vdimm?

[youngpro]

to reach this sort of numbers, yeah it must be subzero, i am using 1.9vdimm, PSC is a funny ram and on air, wont scale much past 1.7v.. but when you make it cold and also give it more volts, then it scales nicely!

Looks like PSC is not HT limited at 275 bus like elpida

[Hondacity]

does your board have these?
1. rtl
2. WRITE to PreCharge Time(tWTP)
3. READ to PRE Time(tRTP)

did you use cpu tweaker?

i'm prepping for amd clocking

[cdawall]

great job! i cant wait to see what the crosshair IV exteme allows for clocking ram if any.

[sofos1990]

Well done pro

Really nice speeds on an AMD platform

[massman]

I hate the thread title. Even though you didn't use world record.

Nice memory clocking, though ... good to see close to DDR3-2400 on AMD. Any chance you will be pushing this memory with real CPU and IMC clocks anytime soon? I'd very much like to see the effect in 32M at serious frequencies

[M.Beier]

Nice clocks on AMD young one!

I personally got rid of all AMD stuff, and wont turn back before they make decent products for ram again..

Seems they've just past CLARKDALE IMC.... Still not up at bloomfield level, nor Lynnfiled, Gulftown.

[Don_Corleone]

Nice clocks pro, amazing
Though i never gonna risk my thuban for memory overclocking.

[stunned_guy]

Great speed on AMD my friend

[dinos22]

nice work pro-man-dude

[crazydiamond]

amazing job on amd

[geobot24]

Wooow...Crazy speeds for Amd...Well done dude...

Enable your disabled cores and you should lose the red cross.

Very nice clocks there Get that NB-F up

[youngpro]

Enable your disabled cores and you should lose the red cross.

OH REALLY? i dont even need them disabled, just disabled them to see if it would help and never re-enabled... thanks dude

thanks all for your kind comments... i dont normally bench this sort of thing, but it is definatly addictive, especially when only 10mhz away from 1200...

okay pj has pressured me into removing recorded from my title

I dont understand, what's wrong with 1800 CAS 6?

[bartolomius]

amazing clocks

What is your gain by putting CPU imc under cold ?
