How Far Can Your OCZ 3700EB go?

[Korpse]

hi,
FIRST POST!

I would like to know (if you peeps still have any EB ) how far you can get it and at what timings MemTest #5 Stable?

I am asking as im finally getting a 3400NC and want to be able to run 10x260 1:1 - I know my EB can do 260 3-3-2-8 on this 3200CH but with any luck on a better mem controller maybe 265 is possible

Cheers for any feedback
XS Noob, Korpse

mine did about 260 stock timmings stable, but i could post up to 270.

Welcome to the forums btw

[Radelon]

My 3500EB does 3-2-2-5 up to 270. I have seen some reach above 290.

[skate2snow]

Around 270MHz 3-2-2-7 is the average.. But some Goes WAY higher...

[situman]

I think thats for single stick. DUal stick is most likely very poor as the newer AMD chips or mobos dont like micron chips, so I've heard/read

[Korpse]

im on S754 so its ok - new 939 boards hate EB!
but S754 seems kewl with it - speciallly as i have a dfi ut nf3

[GazC]

EB doesn't work well on most MSI K8N Neo2 mobos, so bear that in mind if you are planning on going 939 at any point.

[situman]

if i were u, i would sell them before it depreciates even more. Its very hard to sell EBs now a days.

[mcnbns]

The only reason it's hard to sell is that EB is better than people give it credit for. People freak out and sell their old "bad" RAM whenever a new type of RAM comes out.

[Korpse]

so true mate

i got a free 1gb of it accidently and was liek woot thats a free £200
i ended up selling it for £110 cos that bloody VX came out

w/ 3400 CH + K8N Pro (3.3V 'kyosen Vdimm mod'):
512MB EB3700
SuperPi 1M@ 295MHz 3-2-2-8, 3.3V Vdimm, fan on top of ram.

Didn't run 3Dmark at that speed. Never tried memtest w/ this either.

[eva2000]

i had 2x 512MB OCZ PC3700EB DC Kit, one stick did 255mhz one did 250mhz

had 2x 512MB OCZ PC3700EB singles, one did 255-265mhz and one did 280-285mhz

[I²K]

260MHz 3-2-2 1:1 on a KV8.

[Boogotop]

mine does 295 3/3/2/10 on Giga NF3 754 with 3.4v but can pass 240 on Neo2

[SliNGky]

My 1gig EB PC3700 does (at 2.9vdimm) 240MHz @ 3-2-2-11 1T... my ram suck as I see....

Cya,
SliNGky

[jjcom]

Maybe not, your running a lower voltage than those people. So thats not too bad for those volts

jjcom

[SliNGky]

ok!.. and I just see than my board (Chaintech VNF3-250) undervolt my ram to 2.84v...

[mcnbns]

I was just playing around today and I almost got a screenshot with my PC3500 EB at 250MHz 3-2-2-6 in my NF7-S today. This mobo is holding me back... Maybe I need to upgrade sometime.

[jjcom]

bah, why would you want to leave the good 'ol AXP...you can always overclock on the processor through the roof...then buy another one with out loseing credit card privliges lol

[WesM63]

3700EB 2x256mb does 258mhz on A8V in DC.

I have a Booster on the way for some 3v+ action.

[Korpse]

i tested 1 stick of 512mb last nite and it did 265 stable for hours at 3.3vdiumm at 3-3-2-8 timings and then i booted an benched (Everest) at 285

but whole 2 sticks together on this cpu only do 258

[Zeus]

Has anyone ever pushed EB to or over 300MHz with 3-2-2-x timings?

[Mrki]

2x256 EB 3500 3.1VDimm

[Dojo | Warlord]

OCZ 3700EB, 240 FSB, 3-2-2-11 1T, 3.3vdimm, K7/NF2 -- XP-M/Infinity.


memtest/pi 32M stable.

Now in my backup system.

[Tony]

I have hit 290 3-2-2- on a modded epox 9nda3+ with 3.4Vdimm using 2x512. I have a feeling I may see 300 with the new generation of NF4 and ATI chipset boards im now testing.

Remember a lot has to do with cpu memory contrllors also
