New G.skill PC6400 HZ 2x1 GB OC Report

[The Nemesis]

My 71701200 kit won't do 32mb Pi @DDR2-800 cas 3 2.3v. It also wouldn't do DDR2-850 2.44v. I didn't bother to see what voltage it would take to make cas 3 DDR2-800 stable since I'm happy with its cas 4 performance anyway.

I can't quite get to DDR2-1200 with these. But I'm on a DFI Infinity UltraII-M2. I'm not sure if that's my problem. Tbh this is my first pair of DDR2 so I'm not real experience in OCing them.

Maybe your CPU is weak and cause problems

uhh mabye there ddr800 sticks and %50 oc on the ram is a no go?lol....sounds like another set of dead micron d9,s will be happening so0n http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=139544 ...i have 4 gigs of these sticks and your "review"is nice for quickie timings but thats not rock solid stable i assure u dude.play bf2 for 10 minutes with your ram like that(crash,bsod)anmd u could never pass memtest #5 or orthos like that.rma time soon 4 u.why are you frying your sticks like that?guys like u are the reason for dead microns,like in this thread http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=139544 ..good job?.because u can simply rma them i guess?

I agree with you Did I mention that rockstable? If it was, I would insert some screens with ORTHOS Ram test (about 5 - 6 hour). And for me it is stable. But I love overclocking memory ram, especially when it is some great piece of ICs High voltages aren't safe but with good airflow and "control of the user" we can help them not to die. I am not so crazy to do ORTHOS or to play games on such voltage. I really like to OC ram on high voltages, because results are more promising and we can simply see who of manufactures supplies us with good stuff G.skill HZ are good binned D9 on perfect PCB (Brainpower 6layer) and I just wanted to show it.

By the way

For everyday using I apply voltage below 2,25

realmeat maybe you should consider joining the safesystems.org forum
this is for extreme users, that take the risk of frying their hardware.
of course we all try to aviod any damage to the hardware, but sometimes sh*t happens....
and rma...why not^^ at the moment the manifacturers' stocks are full of ram and they want to get rid of it (to re-raise the prices) anyway.

[adamsleath]

well personally i dont want to fry my ram.
maybe i'll go to safesystems.org aswell

yay for ddr2 glut and cheap ram sticks.

Nice results..
I ordered a Pair today and an Asus P5N32-E SLI mobo, can´t wait to see how they perform.

Old HZ 6400 have performed quiet well (very similar to HZ 8500 on P5B Deluxe). But I had then also very old HZ 8500. The difference on P5B Deluxe HZ 6400 - 8500 was obscure. They performed both well, but CL4 was much better on 8500. And on P5N32E-SLI HZ 8500 just knocked out 6400. That my 2 cents.

And I added promised photos

What are the speed thresholds for the timings?

What I mean is, at what speeds do you have to turn up the latency?

On 965:

3-3-3-8? ~ 400-435 Mhz ?Voltage?
4-4-4-12? ~ 436-561 Mhz ?Voltage?
5-4-4-8? ~ 562+ Mhz ?Voltage?

On P35:

3-3-3-12? ~ 400-485 Mhz ?Voltage?
? ~ 486+? ?Voltage?
