My motherboard is a P5e3 Deluxe.I bought this around a year ago.Ive had quite a lot of problems with this motherboard.The first one a year ago just decided on its own when to work (95%) of the time not working when turned on(The guy helping me set up my computer said this was a relaly rare problem hes never faces before), worked fine the first time...got a replacement and its been fine up until now.
I was stupid and it was my first time ever overclocking, didnt do my research on the ram and I bought this:
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-092-OC&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1387
I then overclocked it to 1600mhz(really stupid I know)now im not 100% sure if it stayed at 1600mhz but the ram started causing problems a year later because i was messing with bios because I was having crashes in almost all games/running prime95.If I have the fsb on anything besides auto, it will not run.So I presumed I destroyed the ram by overclocking it so much, so I bought this ram:
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-117-OC
Now see unless I mess with the FSB, I cant get this ram to run at 1600mhz.Because if I dont mess with fsb and just change the mhz, my computer wont even laod up you will just hear the fans on full.So at the moment I have it on 1333mhz.I then updated bios and still have the same problems, so I tried the XMP profile thingy(again, only if i mess with fsb will this work, but then I get regual crashes/graphical glitches in games)And besides either the XMP profile or overclockers site is wrong because overclockers say the xmp profile 2 is 7-6-6-20 whereas when its on profile 2 it actually says 7-6-6-28.
Ok so atm I have that ram at 7-7-7-20 1333mhz(Gonna try lower probably)I wanna know what I can bump that up to and if I can get 1600mhz with it?Or can i combine the 4 sticks of ram?
My CPU is a Q6600 at 3.6ghz with 1.35 v core and my graphics card is not overclocked btw.Temps are fine, never seen em go past 52-55.
Thanks for any help and sorry for long read.
