Hello Guys.
Old good Topics never die...
I am upgrading my old but mighty Rampage Extreme X48 Rig with 8 Gb of RAM with big fear of losing my QX9770 high FSB. My Rig can be seen here.
Finally i upgraded from CMX4GX3M2B2000C9 2x2 GB Kit to CMX8GX3M2A2000C9 8Gb Kit 2x4GB Corsair DDR3 2000 Cl 9-10-9. What i should say, it runs very stable at 450 Mhz FSB and 1:2 900 Mhz mem Speed CL 9 9 9 24 88.
After that success i become greedy and tried 12 GB setup with 2x2 + 2x4 GB Rams. It didn?t work at 450 Mhz FSB. But at Stock FSB Speeds (400 FSB) and with 5:4 divider (533 MHZ) System boots and should work. But since 12 GB of Ram is not needed i stay at 8 Gb Rams and sell the 4 GB Kit. My next goal is to get some better 2x4 GB Ram Kit which runs at 1800 Mhz and Cl8 Timings. Just because the Core 2 Generation is the last Generation before the Integrated Memory Controller Stuff that can take advantage of low Latency.
After that the next step is to get two GTX580s and try out if the HyperSli Mod will enable some Power on my bold 775 Rig. We will see....
