Patriot Vipers (PVS22G9600ELK) PC2-9600 Ockward Results

[Hor$eman]

New results.

Running Linked and Sync'd 1:1 will keep the good numbers though reduces mem bus speed. This does, however, work better than anything else when going over 450 FSB.

Anyone using the 4gb 8500 vipers? I tempted to move from my 4x1Gb config to a 2x2Gb setup but I need close to DDR2 1150/1200 to make it worth it.

sorry to bump thead but i've had very good results with my 4GB PC2-8500


look at the voltage set to 1.9V in bios. Would go lower but when set to 1.8V in bios it actually sets it to 2.1V.

which ones, lowfat? there are two variations, the 2.3v one(hynix), and the 2.1v one(promos). Of course, getting those clocks with 4gb hynix is quite good. Promos..well...we already know how that does!

I don't have the Viper's but I do have a Rampage and Patriot Extreme Performance PC9600 and I can't get stable past 1080Mhz. Volts low, maxed @ 2.3v or on auto, relaxed settings, nothing works. Now looking at OCZ XLC PC9600. Newegg customer review claimed 1226Mhz on Rampage. Cant afford to go fast in my car anymore, this is the only fast thing I have left.

Sweet!

Considering 1.9v, i'm positive those are PSC.

61.9ns is horrible for timings and mhz like that. Your doing something wrong. 1200mhz 4-4-4-13 should be giving you 40's in ns and at least 10.2gb's read. Your not doing something right. Ask anyone here.

thats a great score for 1200 mgz, and under 500 fsb, dam dude sweet, i cant get that score with 1300 mgz, must be cause its a 780i chipset.

Can you pass memtest86 with 1200mgz at 4-4-4-12 ? i doubt it.

He's doing nothing wrong; it's the memory divider that affects the bandwidth/latency. Besides, there's more to memory bandwidth than a billion MHz at CL4.
