DFI 790FX-M2R +955 worky just fine ;-)

**BertM** · 05-14-2009, 06:52 AM

i received the blades today. black sticks!! very nice.
after alot of work i finaly got it to work a little at ddr2 1200. not stable here though.
probably with better cooling i could make it happen.
i had to change memory timings with memset.

bios and aod cant reach those settings.
thanx again to this stupid dq6 bios the highest stable htt is 210mhz.

Just mess around with skew, trfc and drive strength (if you bios have those) values, try to swap the sticks around or try them in the other slots.

DDR1200 5-5-5 was a piece of cake here.

**tool_462** · 05-14-2009, 11:59 PM

Still not in stock :cry:

**Tony** · 05-15-2009, 02:30 AM

they are starting to filter thru...also remember there are new SKU's based off this part with 1066 1150 and 1200 all available

**tool_462** · 05-15-2009, 02:36 AM

Am I correct in assuming "LV" will be in the product numbers?

**Tony** · 05-15-2009, 02:59 AM

How are the oc ability with the platinum? Don't see anyone reporting about the platinum low voltage line only the Blade low voltage ones. I mean what's the different other than the heatspreader?

**Tony** · 05-15-2009, 08:40 AM

same thing different HS option so a little cheaper.

no difference

Cool, that's what I was hoping for. Found some in stock and couldn't resist so I ordered a set. Hope this oc well together with my P5Q-E and Q6600.

**Tony** · 05-15-2009, 09:33 AM

Just got results off a Gigabyte p45 extreme...1333 5-6-6-24

that was tested at OCZ Taiwan...i have asked them to test 6-5-5- and 6-6-5 also as these may allow an easier OC.

They are killer modules for sure

**lopri** · 05-15-2009, 11:41 AM

I was excited about these sticks but I'll have to wait until Gigabyte release a new BIOS for 790X-UD4P. It's default vDIMM is 1.95V, and I have to use +0.1V option to get 1.90V. Ugh.

What's the difference between this DFI LP board and the DFI DK board? All I can find is the DK version with SB750.

**QerryTerry** · 05-15-2009, 12:03 PM

Hi,

i also bought these sticks today. I have to say that these blades are looking and feeling really good (heavy).
Have an Biostar TPower I45. The modules i got are 1066 Blades, but in the SPD are 555 MHz with 5-5-5-18-34.
Are they factory overclocked ? LOL

**kagula323** · 05-16-2009, 01:15 AM

where can I buy OCZ BLade Low Voltage series in Italy? pls tell me ... I have a friend who is in Italy and I would ask him to buy one kit for me

Tony I see that the "Low-Voltage" modules are out on OCZ website at 1150mhz and 1200mhz. Anything different about those, or just higher binning?

Higher binning, as mentioned earlier in this thread.

**Tony** · 05-16-2009, 05:55 AM

We originally were just going to release them as 1066 hence the first shipment to Germany may be killer as they are unbinned for higher speeds...you may get really lucky

Now...OCZ have an eye on my overclocking tests and had a look at yield at upper speed grades and found some did 1150 1.8V, some did 1200 1.8V and some less than 1150 1.8V so these become 1066 bin.

This does not mean the 1066 won't do higher clocks will a little more juice...and I mean a tiny amount as big jumps can hurt these modules speed...going to 1.85 may be all thats needed for the 1066 bin to go to the 1200 bin.

So 1200 are the best as they passed at 1.8V...remember this is board specific BUT they are the best out of the stock we hold.

Canada?

NCIX & their many clones don't seem to have anything yet.

**radaja** · 05-16-2009, 07:08 PM

Mwave has the Platinum for $70.

I'm holding out to see what Newegg's price on the Blades are.

Why would you send people to those websites to find the wrong part?
