G.Skill DDR3-1600 CL7 GBHZ - broke 13.1K in EVEREST read....!!!

[aoch88]

Is this a 2 x 1GB module?
I'm wonder what 2 x 2GB module is good for both DDR2/DDR3 at the moment?

My kit is 2 x 1GB - and it's DDR3...............

[jugeen]

Just receaved mine from MemoryC.Com and they are 8AB12 D9GTS

58ZR is the number on the side of the first BGA chip.
the other 7 have 5HG5 on them

Ahhh both of them are 8AB12 D9GTS and I got them for around 140 Euro while they cost about 350 Euro here in Denmark

EDIT: Heres a link if anybody wants some
http://www.memoryc.com/computermemor...0hzseries.html

I was told they where changing to D9JNL and and expected it because of the price. Now Im happy though

All of them are 8AB12 D9GTS

I ordered the same kit over the weekend and they are arriving today. Will post results once I get everything fired up this afternoon.

[MotF Bane]

I have the 2x2GB version of this kit at home, waiting on a heatsink for the BlackOps build.

[mrcape]

FYI - Straight off the truck from newegg today - @$185 lol

[deachus]

I got mine from Newegg yesterday and had the ram running at 1800 7-7-7-18 1T no problems. I updated the BIOS to 0401 on first start up before loading windows. First PI run was 14.XXX. Didn't get much time to play because of work this morning but will get into some heavy testing in a few hours and will post some results.

Enjoy

[hiwa]

they have JNM too not tested

[deachus]

Ordered mine on 6/22 from Newegg and received them on 6/26 with D9GTS ic.

I ordered mine today from the egg.. I will report back on Tuesday when the arrive..

Hey has anyone tried using 4 x 1gb sticks for 64-bit? Just wondering how high they OC?

[saaya]

depends on the board, on 790 4x1gb seem to clock slightly better

[soapman72]

does anyone know if I am likely to be able to hit 1800mhz at 7-7-7-24-2N with 4 of these sticks on a P5E3 Premium? I currently have 2x2gb OCZ reapers and they will not run any tighter than 8-8-8-27-2n regardless of voltage, skew, etc. Perhapes I shouldn't complain, beacuse at their stock timings they are totally stable at 1800mhz which is alot better than the nightmares I had with the 1600mhz platinum kit that I had.

I see the kind of timings that you guys with the 2x1gb kits are able to run, and I guess I get a lil' bit jealous. LoL!

[saaya]

well thats why i and many others recommend 4x1gb

you can pick the best 2 sticks and run them in the best 2 slots to bench, and for 24/7 you load a BIOS profile for lower mem clock and more relaxed timings and throw in the other 2 sticks if you are on windows xp most likely you wont even need more than 2gb anyways

if you can hit 1800 cas7 with 4 sticks... on the premium im not so sure... on 790 ive already seen 2 people with cellshock do it.

[soapman72]

Saaya,


Thanks for the input. I ask the question, because I am on Vista 64. I don't mind running 4x1gb if it works better, but I am not woried about pulling 2 sticks for benchmarking. The only benchmarks that I worry about are the ones that come from settings that I can run 24/7. My current ram is pretty nice, giving me about 10,900 read, 9500 write, 9925 copy, and Latency of 49.0 ms. I would switch my ram for something that I can run 7-7-7 timings, but I don't know if that will be possble. In time, perhapse kits with tighter, and tighter timings will come out. I hope so, because FSB higher than 450mhz is really hit or miss, especially for the guys running quad core CPU's. Unless you have a Nvidia chipset, most people cant run DDR2000 with 4gb at voltages that can be safely run 24/7.

[TheKarmakazi]

nice work, I think you can at least break 14k though, if not more! keep it coming!

[intel101]

I just bought pair of G.Skill 2GB F3-12800CL7D-2GBHZ along with
DFI T3RS board. I slowly worked on removing heatspreader, discovered
that they are in fact D9GTS.

[skinnee]

how difficult is it to pry the heatspreader off these sticks? I've never performed that process...

<--- noob, yup

[Vivi]

last month was a month of xtreme happenings! loving all the new hardware thats out

13.1K is awesome!!

what is the WR?

[MotF Bane]

So far the 2x2 version of this kit is somewhat disappointing. Moved latencies from 777 to 888, increased nearly 200 on the frequency, set for 2.04 volts, and still can't get it stable. It might still be me not knowing the motherboard well enough though.

[3oh6]

what is the WR?

i hate the term WR but i have posted a 15K screenshot that i have yet to see replicated. odly enough...by the very same kit as this one...G.SKill HZs

596MHz x 9 5362MHz / 1117MHz @ 8-7-6 :: 1M - 8.609 // Everest - 15070
click for full size...

i also have a kit of Ballistix (D9GTS) that cracked 15K as well.

1M SPi // 15K+ Everest :: 1130MHz 8-7-6
click for full size...including memset

and CPU-z validation of course...

again, not sure if there is higher floating around but i haven't seen it.

The blues are already getting to this kid's head.

The blues are already getting to this kid's head.

hahaha

show me something to knock me down a peg or two then

seriously though, the 790i is absolutely a freak when it comes to this sort of thing. to be honest, i haven't even pushed that Ballistix kit much and certainly not for just Everest Read. i'm sure it could go much higher, and if i ever have time, it will

[GSKILL TECH]

i wanna see some memtest screen...

just kidding

[ToyTen]

how does the JNM behave? I got those at memoryC today, any experience here ? I'm about to make mine, but as I meet troubles with my X48 mobo concerning ram... any feedback would be appreciated.
