Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P Thread

Hi people,

I was originally using OCZ Platinum 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C7 1333MHz Dual Channel (OCZ3P13334GK) which ran fine at their specified settings.

Recently I bought some OCZ Platinum AMD Edition 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C7 1600MHz Dual Channel (OCZ3P1600LVAM4GK) rated at 1.65v but they fail prime95 within 2-3 minutes unless I have the voltage at 1.70v

I am just wondering if this is safe to run at 1.70v? I've checked the ram & it's quite hot to the touch at 1.70v kinda worried the ram wont last that long with such heat.

I'm just trying to get the memory stable prior to reclocking the CPU.

Would appreciate the info, has anyone got theirs running at 1.65v? if so can you give me out stable settings? I've got mine running at 7-7-7-24 27trc 1T

Yah run it at 1.7v.....giga undervolts ram. I have the same set and have had no issues running them 1.7v. I dicussed this with tony and he agreed that 1.7 would be within spec. Trc 28 or 30 should be a little more stable. I think you will like them better if you run them at 1333+ divider 6-6-6-24-28-1T. They also will not need 1.7v unless your pushing for 1400+ if run that way.
