    Thumbs up Making 2x2GB PC8000+ DDR2 Compatible

    Since many users and myself amongst them, bought some G.Skill or Mushkin PC8000+ 2x2GB Kits,
    we cannot have them posted beyond 980+ MHz especially in motherboards
    with no manual adjusting of tRFC > 42 for example my Maximus Formula


    What i did?
    I downloaded the old favor spdtool found here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=123624.

    For those having Muskin Redline 8000 @ 5-5-5-15 @ 2.1 Volts like me
    this is the screenshot from default spd.



    As you can see the tRFC value = 42 and in order to make them compatible
    must be set at least at value = 52.

    Just use the tool and locate tRFC and put there 128.33ns.
    That's it you can flash your modules with new spd.
    Do not forget to fix checksum first.
    New spd is like that:



    My memories running now with moded spd:



    Try at your own risk. I have no responsibility if something goes wrong
