DDR1300+ CellShock PC2-8000C4's

EnJoY · 04-15-2007, 04:03 PM

So I decided to have some fun today and go for some high clocks on the Cellshock PC2-8000C4 kit I reviewed a few weeks back. This time I'm on the 680i and I think I'm starting to get the hand of how it clocks.

I managed a couple decent results after only a couple of hours. Here's what I have so far.

1300MHz 5-4-3-10-2T - 2.4v

1M: PICTURE

8M: PICTURE

32M: PICTURE

I'm not sure how good this is really, but for the voltage and timings I thought it was pretty fast.

I took the top spot in my database as you can see here.

I'm gonna run some everest latency tests now and then keep clocking upward. I know there's supposedly a wall after 1325-1330mhz or so right?

1300 on the 680i is like 1200 on the 965.
not hard or uncommon, but still a good indicator of ram potential.

Sure wish my quad gt could do 1200! I think this is pretty impressive.

Wow, I hope my cellshocks do this once i have a chance to test them out.

Are you kidding? My EVGA 680i struggles to get pass 1200MHz. The highest I've gotten is 1250MHz and that took some real effort.

nope. not kidding.

just cause you can't do it, means its hard.
theres been atleast a few dozen people around that got 1300 or more.
in my own case, 1366 mhz was my tops, with Mushkin 6400.
but I gave up on that, cause anything past 1330 mhz, greatly increases my chance of corrupting the OS, and I got sick of corrupting my OS multiple times a night, trying to do a few suicide shots of 1360mhz in super pi.
I've seen a few other people doing 1330-1340 stable to some degree.

1200 on the 680i is exceptionally easy, I have yet to find a set of quality ram that wont do 1200 in mine.

1300 isnt hard on the 680i.
