Thumper, what is your Vdimm at?

also, what is are your bios settings?

I am using the Kingston 2 GB sticks, but they are also rated 9-9-9-27.

Thanks in advance.

Vdimm is 1.9
Thats all I can remember right now... I am at work.

Thank you. I'll see if I give those timings a try and see how it works out.

[THUMPer]

This is what I got with an E8400

Ok, got my Gskill 2 x 2GB 1600 MHz memory today. Timings are 7-7-7-18 @ 1.9V

I have it OCed to 1760 and timings are 8-8-8-21 @ 1.96 (I have not tweaked these yet. Just loosened it a bit as the original timings BSOD when I ran Prime Blend test)

It is still running right now and it's been 18 mins so far. I have never been able to run Prime 95 blend @ 1600MHz at all, so this is a good thing.

Thank you to those who posted about this memory, you guys are lifesavers!!

im interested to see how well the 2x2gb gskill do on overclocking. im thinking of getting a pair myself but i would want them to be able to do at least 2000mhz with reasonable timings and volts.

[modderwannabe]

i'm still having problems with my ocz3rpx133eb2gk ram.i can only run stable at 8-7-7-27 at 1.8v, mutil 10x, fsb strap 400, pcie clock 101, ras to ras delay 9, row refresh cycle time 88, cpu 1.215v everything else auto, ive tried tweaking nbv and gtl's but it dosent boot or run as stable as auto settings. i'm using bios 1402.

why not we all post up all of the ddr3 rams with settings that works ? thx to all in advance.
sadly, i think i could have short circuited my mobo while trying to replace ram into 2nd orange slot without powering off system while in bios rebooting with 1 ram to set up bios.
DO NOT DO THIS guys... now i have no pc to use and have to head to asus here in HK ad hopefully get a replacement.

looks like the g.skill rams are doing a great job holding up to this mobo ... i am located in hk but i've searched around and there is no g. skill ddr3 available, i've also tried on ebay not much luck, can anyone help me out with purchasing g skill rams ? i've tried newegg but they do not ship internationally sad sad

I changed the ram to my E8600 and at 1680 MHz, it ran at stock 7-7-7-18 1.9V settings.

Once I have the time to OC my board a bit more, I'll try to hit 500 FSB and see if I can get the ram stable. Playing a lot of Warhammer online lately

Lukee,

set your RAS to RAS delay to 8-10 or even more.

the 5 is faulty default taken over from ASUS' DDR2 boards. OCZ, Mushkin and Corsair state that at least 8 or 10 are neccessary, depending on your type of RAM and current clock. The higher, the more cycles you need.

[Lukee]

Thanks.. So I should try the 7-7-7-18-8 settings for 1760 MHz?

Btw, if anyone wants to buy some Kingston DDR3 1600 MHz 2 GB DIMMs, please pm me

[Amurtigress]

Lukee:

7-7-7-18 might be okay for your memory modules, thi I'd rather start at 9-9-9-24 roughly and find something stable first before tightening the latencies.

Second boot, XMP profile selected, everything else @ auto.

BND|MOD... great table.

are you planning on finding any higher freqencies? i have found my gskill HZ's do 2000mhz at 8-7-6-20 at 2.04v but i cannot get me e8600 to run 5ghz with the ram at 2000mhz. any suggestions?

How about change the Multi to 9 or 9.5, so you can run at 4.5 or 4.75?

[Fitseries3]

i have already accomplished that. i want to run it at 5ghz. it runs and boots up to 5.7ghz but is not benchable past 4.95ghz

Yes i want to test near 1000Mhz but low timings.... my e8600 don`t run at 5ghz for now... i need to tweak better with 1.5vcore :P

[Fitseries3]

^^ gskill HZ's





i've gotten the hang of the board now. it's pretty easy to get some impressive OCs to work but stability over 500fsb is almost impossible it seems.

[BNDMOD]

Under watr kind of refrigeration do you have that e8600 :P?
Wich vdimm do you use for 1000 cas 9? 2.x?

[Fitseries3]

225watt TEC paired with a iwaki RD30 and 2x PA120.3's.

used 2.04v for 2000mhz 9-9-9-24 but i have found that i can get 2000mhz working with 2.0v and run 9-8-7-21

Their boot at that speed? 2.04v and any tweaks for ram on bios

Sound good... 3dMark Stable right with that config?

[Fitseries3]

yes but not 100% 24/7 stable.

[BNDMOD]

yes but not 100% 24/7 stable.

Yeah i suppoust that but it`s ok for test
