these sticks seem to get better the more i beat on them. i am certainly impressed with how they are holding up to the big boys that BA is running. normally i don't openly plug reviews like this but since a few people have been asking me what 24/7 stability of this particular kit is like, you can see some stability testing in my review of these exact modules that i am beating on here. a dual 32M OC Report will be out in a couple weeks on these sticks...still finding the limits of the MB at this point. now on to the matter at hand...
i have almost evened up the playing field, still not ready to go over 2.0v with my babies yet so CL7 is out of the question at this frequency and my MB still says P35 in the description instead of that yucky X38 suff, but i did spend a couple minutes with a 50K ohm VR and the P5K3 to get that PL down to 6 at this FSB
you better find some free time next week because here i come BA![]()
i believe in full disclosure so here is a pic of the mod...thanks to SF3D and his P5K-Dlx vmod thread (the MCH mod is the same for P5K3 obviously)
back on my 32M prepped OS so a similiar setup to previous runs of late:
E6600 (L629B383) 7 x 505 (boot from bios)
Thermalright Ultra-120 (CPU cooling)
Asus P5K3-Dlx (vMCH mod)
Noctua NC-U6 NB cooling / Thermalright HR-05 SLI SB cooling / naked PWM![]()
Crucial Ballistix PC3-12800 2x1GB
Biostar 8600GTS 512MB
Seagate 7200.9 80GB SATA2 (20GB partition for OS/programs/page file)
Silverstone Zeus ST56ZF 560W
Win2K3 SP1 (custom nLite'nd job)
realtime / core 1
maxmem = 615
copywazza = 1GB (single folder with 1MB files each in an individual folder) from C:\ > Z:\ - Z:\ > C:\ - C:\ > Z:\
eram 2.11 (Z:\) - about 1.3GB in size running SPi
and i think...i think...a dash of CDT as far as i understand it
visual effects all off
memory usage = "System cache"
processor scheduling = "Programs"
page file = no page file (still a page file i think but i set it to none)
plenty of services disabled but not all
reg tweaks:
"EnableSuperfetch"=dword:00000001
"DisablePagingExecutive"=dword:00000001
"LargeSystemCache"=dword:00000001
"ClearPageFileAtShutdown"=dword:00000001
(there may be a couple more of the NTFS reg tweaks in there as well)
3535.1MHz SPi 32M = 12m 59.953s
click for full size including memset...
not quite as tight as the last one Gautam, but i tried, just for you![]()
