Live MB OC Report :: ASUS Rampage Extreme

[Crazymilk]

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

Run ram @ 1600 with FSB 400, strap 200 is so sweet, low volt overall with a pretty good OC, this is when I compare to the other straps @ FSB 400. See this post, downside is that 3,6GHz are to low for some but for me it´s good enough, I mostly game with a highend card so 3,6 compare to 4,0 doesn´t make much of a different but somehow it feels much better for me to run 4,0 insteed of 3,6, weird but that´s just me.

Would had been nice to have a multi 10 on the Q9650 then I had put it on FSB 400 and multi 10 for a 4,0GHz and run my ram @ 1600, it had been good enough for my.

Okey, back to real world, I run P95 blend 4 instances with 925Mb ram each right now with FSB 450, 4,05GHz and ram @ 1800 888 24 2N, DRAM Static auto, DRAM Dynamic auto, Twister auto and Transaction auto, looking good after 1hr, I get back to you with my progress.

Got passed 2hr mark, still looking good, some volt are high but once I have it stable I work to get those down.

Just remember that I read somewhere that samsung don´t like strong drive compare to Micron, can´t remember where though and I´m not sure if I remember this right, have to look into this.
