X48 Rampage Formula Preview.

[Ice009]

Does anyone know if OCZ 2 x 2 GB kit of PC8500 Reapers work with this motherboard? I want to get this motherboard with that kit of RAM and a Q9550 when Intel cuts their prices.

First sorry for my bad english (french schools :p)

I have a rampage formula bios 0406 with a X3360 xeon CPU
Corsair pc8500 ram 2x1go dominator
The xeon cooling was a : Thermalright 120 Xtreme with a papst PWM

I was before on a crucial pc8500 8FE5 memory and it was very unstable and i changed for these corsairs

- ALL CPU tests Rockstable , OCCT CPU one hour



But memtest on windows and OCCT ram very unstable , crash in less of 1 min...



Also memtest with a boot cd was stable :



My temperatures was ok :




I want to have my FSB450 in windows with strap 333 and 1071 mhz for the memory... But can't.

It was stable at FSB 445 , STRAP 400 , 1:1 with 1.51V vNB (very poor performances... 7239mb/s in everest read test)
FSB 445 , Strap 333 12:10 Unstable at 1.65vNB
FSB 450 , strap 400 , 1:1 : Stable only at 1.73 vNB !!!! and of course strap 333 always unstable

What can i try? Change a paramater in my BIOS ? Or My ram? (corsairs bad with x48? Must i buy adata pc9600?) ? Or an issue with ma rampage and a should i do a RMA?

G.Skills work best with this MoBo look at the other systems & you will see that alot people are using them

Just so you know, 70C is way too hot for that CPU! Especially if you have a Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme. I'm not sure whether that's idle temps or load temps (I'm hoping that's load temps), but your CPU temps are way too high.

As well as I don't think it's safe to be running more than 1.45V on the NB, if I remember correctly.

[foxvengeor]

It's the load temp. The Fan was auto regulated by the motherboard ! at 72° ! Because my papst PWM can go to 3000 RPM and when i'm on full load he is at 1600 RPM only... It's Qfan... . I had the same temp @stock but the fan was at 1100RPM max...

I've just test FSB 470 * 6 = CPU @ stock. OCCT test RAM : unstable. CPU : Unstable.

And FSB 410*8.5 RAM @ 546 mhz. OCCT test RAM : stable.

I really think that my rampage have a serious issue with FSB...

Just want say that I've tired - Crucial pc8500 8FE5, OCZ Reaper pc8500 (4gb) and now G.skill F2-8500CL5D and the G.Skill have been by far the easiest ram to configure... They are even stable at auto settings

Im now a proud member of the 8gb G.skill club But I need ideas to cool 'em - I have trouble fitting in a fan suggestions are greatly appreciated

Could you link where you found that information?

try this memory fan

works great for me on my G.Skills
