Gigabyte MA790FX DQ6

[Jaivan]

Keithlm:

I have almost the same ram as you the 8000 version which also has the strange timings as well all I can say is that the "Gigabutt" DS5 just doesn't like them.

I remember using the F1 and F2 BIOSes with these and they wouldn't even post consistantly with a phenom 9500.

The later BIOSes seem to have fixed that with the 9500, but I still cannot get my 9850 to run stable with them @ DDR 800. Too bad I don't have another set or ram to test this out.

The same set of ram in my DFI 790FX M2R run perfectly stable @ DDR 1066 with both the 9500 and 9850.

I think the main difference is that the "Gigabutt" BIOS is really buggy compared to the DFI and that they don't really seem to care about sorting it out.

Oh BTW which OS are you using?
