Live MB OC Report :: ASUS Rampage Extreme

[zsamz_]

I was using a REX 24/7 in gf's pc up until a month or so ago. Not many people left who would be though that's true.

16GB for $135, no matter how crappy the speed/timings are thats good value for a cheap desktop. SB just loves crap ram too so thats where the market is now.

yup sandy dont like the good stuff lol

still a rex is hard to find these days

Is anyone still benching with his REX or am I the only one left?

I've been testing my Dominator GT 2000C8 on my REX for the first time yesterday and today, trying to get a fast 32M at 2400MHz.

This is the result:



My goal was to hit 17m15s ( or lower of course ), as you can see I'm not quite there, but hardware-wise this is pretty much the limit. This was done at 1.55V Vnb and 1.70V Vdimm, I tried to get tRP 4 at up to 1.75V Vdimm, or tCL 5 and/or tRCD 5 at up to 1.60V Vnb and 1.80V Vdimm, but this didn't work out.
If you have some ideas on how to improve the timings I'm all ears!

Software-wise this is also almost maxed out. A fresh OS might give me small gains, but I don't think it'll gain me 2 seconds.

In case anyone's interested in the bandwidth, here's an Everest shot right after reboot ( same settings as the 32M above ):

Its just you

I have some results here: Hyper testing on REX

Maybe your ram just doesn't like tRP 4?

Thanks John!
I'm sorry I can't help you with your Linux problem, I've never used that OS.

Haha, I was afraid that is the case. Not having any money for new toys sucks...

Your scores were actually the base line for my testing, since only few people have tested these 2GB sticks on the REX.

I guess that's the truth, or it's the board.

I already have an idea on how to improve the score, I'll give it a try again some day.
