Memory testing...I found I could run P95 blend on an RD600 at 450mhz..burned a dvd and it was choppy as hell

reran...test 5...after 30 passes it threw errors..BTW this passed 1000% on win memtest....re did memory settings and reran memtest 86+ 1.70 test 5 for 50 passes....

DVD burns were fine

My point is 2 passes of memtest is no good....I would do no less than 10 passes of all the tests and still run test 5 for 50 passes

For me if I can pass test 5 ..50 times, I will not get memory related issues at a given timings ...

so i set mem first, run 50 passes on test 5(at given overclock)...then run 3DMark05, if this passes(those 2 cpu test are huge stress on the cpu) then i will run Blend P95

I used to accept 10-12hrs of P95...I kinda like 24 hrs of P95 now

But the memory has to go 50 passes or I really worry

Muttonflanks....make sure powerslope is on and this may allow a lower vcore setting

also what did you see with voltage in windows prior to figuring out the bios was not taking the settings
