ASUS M4N82/955 problems....plz NO AMD chipset suggestions

[BeepBeep2]

.and get this: one stick in channel A and one in channel B LOL Corsair Dominators (1066)...yet CPU-Z still shows DUAL lol

Of course it does, you have one stick in A and one stick in B. That's two channels.

Grats on 3.8 stable.


Also, try to tighten the tRC timing a bit, it's the main bandwidth maker on nvidia chipsets. I don't know why you are running 5-5-5-24, if it's stable at 5-5-5-15 you will gain alot (ALOT) more bandwidth also, just make sure to keep the tRC equal or over to tRP + tRAS. From tRC 30 to 20 you will most likely gain a good 200 MB/s and tRAS down to 12-15 area around another 100 MB/s.

well the motherboard manual says:

Due to CPU limitations.......DDR2 1066 Ram is supported for one DIMM per channel only...

and on the previous page....

the yellow slots are labeled DIMM_A1 and DIMM_B1...the black are labeled....DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2....

....in either case with DDR2 1066 RAM in either 2 black slots OR a black and a yellow slot...I still have same issue....only now...and probably before...I can reboot ONLY on second try at anything over 3.7Ghz...its stable IN Windows...it's still just the reboot problem. At 3.7Ghz it reboots fine...EVERY time lol

The only change I've found is do NOT run Everest in the background when you are running Prime 95

.and bro I've long ago tried ALL the variations on the RAM timings....and done THAT on 3 different sets of RAM. From the screens above lowering any RAM timing just makes it BSOD at boot ...faster :/
