Well i think that 1201 isn't so good at all as regard the memory part... Any luck with your 2x2 Ghostleader?

Im still thinking its the 450fsb on the quad causing the issues rather than the RAM having problems.

I have read alot regarding the high fsb on quads and the majority of people with them and 1800mhz RAM are having to settle at 400Mhz (1600Mhz). A bit of a bummer but with the QX quads and a unlocked multi then not too much of an issue with reard to raw speed.

I would like to proved wrong by anybody who has thier quad stable @ 450 fsb and ram at 1800Mhz but I am struggling to find many - if any

I was rock stable at 1800@450fsb with mine q9650 on P5E64 Evolution with dominator and not only this, but rock stable at 490fsb too, but with devider 5:8 because the chipset ran out of bandwith, and i couldnt get 1950mhz...

Ok thats interesting.

I shall clock my RAM down and up the fsb to 450 to see if it is stable at 450.
That way I can rule that out on my 9650 - am I right in thinking that if I do that and am stable it will confirm that the CPU is no the issue with the 450FSB??

Thanks

The cpugtls are very sensitive, they need a lot of tweaking...im going to install dominators now and see

Run my Q9650 @ 450 ram @ 1800 2x1, 4x1 was/is no problem with my Dominator 1800C7.

Check these two posts, 2198, 2208

There is no way I can run my 2x2 Trencend (Samsung IC) stable @ 1800, tried lose timing, lose tRD, lose Twister, volt up and down, GTLs up and down bou no , don´t know what´s .

It boot fine into Win 7, can browse the internet, play games for a while but freeze or reboot.

Funny, those Trencend have XMP so it should work with Intel chip but no, not with my X48, I´m about to try them in my new EP45-UD3P that arrived yesterday to see if the P45 chipset like them better.

I ahve included below a couple of screenies that I currently have fully stable and the max i can get out of my RAM.

As you can see I have kept the FSB at 400 because the RAM beocmes unstable no matter what I try on anything over 1600Mhz. The ram is rated at 1800Mhz so that is what is getting to me.

I run the CPU at 450FSB and clocked the RAM down and done all the usual stress test and it passes no problem so I know my Mobo/CPU are comfortable running @ 450FSB ( I even managed to get a stable FSB of 465).
So my theory is the RAM is the issue when trying to get 1800MHZ.

I have tried tweaking the DRAM clock skews etec etc but nothing seems to help getting anything over 1600Mhz
I am using A2/B2 slots
