What means the King of DDR600?GSkill 1GBFF 2.46V SP2004 finished

[windwithme]

Recently, I’ve been spending time to test some AMD hi-end CPUand other motherboards.
As good luck, DFI nF4 LP released 6/23 BIOS.
Let me challenge the limitation of my FF

Looks



Original Specification :

* Packing : 1024MB kit (2x512MB) dual channel pack
* IC Chips : Samsung TCCD
* CAS Latency : 2.5-3-3-7 (PC4400) / 2.5-4-4-8 (PC4800)
* Test Voltage : 2.85~2.95 V
* PCB : 6 layers PCB
* Speed : DDR 550 MHz (PC4400) / DDR 600 MHz (PC4800)
* Pin Count : 184-pin DDR SDRAM
* ECC : Non-ECC
* Registered/Unbuffered : Unbuffered
* Warranty : Life-time




The proverb said : There is always a great cooler behind the great OCer

Of course, windwithme also got one.



Test Configuration
AMD Athlon64 3000+ 0517 (BIOS:6/23-1)
DFI nF4 LANParty Ultra-D
GSkill 1GBFF
SPARKLE6200
Sunnystone water-cooler
TOPOWER 520W

In BIOS, DRAM set to 2.5V, tweak the parameters to 2-2-1-2, not normal 2-2-2-3.
Direct to run SP2004 level 9.
After 53 minutes, the system is still stable.

There is a legend...
If someone can collect AMD legendary FX57 and E6 stepping 3000+.3200+.3500+.3800+, there will be some miracle...

Last week, I’ve post E6(BW) 3000+ & 3800+ simple test...
Now, lets see another E6


Next test probably 4600+ VS FX57, or 4800+ simple test.
I will update without schedule...

Only 2.5v, very cool

How does performance increase/decrease when you change the parameters?

Can you test superpi, 3dmark01, sisoft, etc, etc ?

[5-Clicks]

sweetness! 2.5v....

[agenda2005]

Only one single Prime 95 test for 53min? You didn't even allow it to pass one test. That's ridiculous.

[windwithme]

After running 1 night



Press Stop

[ben805]

what else were you running in the background? why so little test after 8 hours???

[krampak]

yea.. thats strange. My sp2004 and blend test is always at 100% cpu after first 2 minutes:

[windwithme]

sorry
i install too much Softwares
now i update it

run SP2004 level 10

[EMC2]

Let's see Spi32M at those settings

Peace

[krampak]

Don't forget to put the smartguardian

[tjj]

623 bios? i want one

[MaxxxRacer]

wow.. crazy low voltages... those are some sweet sticks.

[justwOo]

wow... thats an amazing CPU

[RaptorRaider]

Very nice indeed.

What's the highest speed your FF can do at 2.5-3-3-7?

[windwithme]

to krampak:
i forget it again

to RaptorRaider:
DDR600 2.5 3-3-7
my before test

[cupra]

wow, very very nice at 2.5v !
that is so cool, i will get my ff soon, thanks a lot wwm, you do a great jobb

did you try more voltage to the rams ?
its 440 so im wonder above the difference at 2.8v-2.9v and even more...

[amrgb]

to krampak:
i forget it again

to RaptorRaider:
DDR600 2.5 3-3-7
my before test

Wasn't Smarguardian supposed to show 2.46v instead of 2.6v

[iddqd]

wow.. crazy low voltages... those are some sweet sticks.

The DFI board overvolts, so it's actually closer to 2.63vdimm.

[Onepagebook]

The more important point is this pair of FF is what he pick from hundred pairs of FF
What about customer?lol
what about normal FF?
Can you guaranteed me every ff is the same can run this?
I am not jealous , I got several FF here
And stop this POS!

[pancake]

i had the same problem with prime and sp2004 on my 3200 winnie and g skill... it would run for hours but would hardly complete any testsmaybe one or two , were my other rig would complete lots of passes in the same amount of time

[windwithme]

Wasn't Smarguardian supposed to show 2.46v instead of 2.6v

my test
DDR600 2.5 4-3-7 2.46V
DDR600 2.5 3-3-7 2.6V

[amrgb]

Got it. I thought you were adding the Smartguardian pic to your previous result.

Have you tried 2.5-4-3-7 2.46v for superpi32M stablility?

Its curious but sometimes I have settings that can run OCCT for hours but fail Superpi32M.

The DFI board overvolts, so it's actually closer to 2.63vdimm.

Right . My board is over ~ 0.1v than setting in Bios

[RaptorRaider]

to RaptorRaider:
DDR600 2.5 3-3-7

Just like Onepagebook and formyfaith eh?
I'm surpised there are so few people with FF and that they all seem to max out exactly at DDR600.

The more important point is this pair of FF is what he pick from hundred pairs of FF

what about normal FF?
Can you guaranteed me every ff is the same can run this?

Hundred pairs of FF? Maybe you/he can send me one?
I'd love to test 'the King of DDR600' like windwithme calls FF but they're all sold out over here.

What do 'customer' and 'normal FF' and 'guaranteed' speed matter at XS?
For those die-hard overclockers out there, isn't XS all about picking your best pair and overclocking it to extreme situations?

[iddqd]

Right . My board is over ~ 0.1v than setting in Bios

Yeah, basically. Try measureing with a multimeter.
