Can someone explain this memtest result pls?

It certainly can. If it can't run perfectly at stock then overclocking it will make things worse.

iMacMart · 12 Aug 2007 at 20:15

Does that go for the CPU overclock as well?

Cob · 12 Aug 2007 at 20:23

Well it should cause Orthos and Prime95 to fail.

iMacMart · 12 Aug 2007 at 20:25

Hmm thats interesting I may try 3.7ghz with 2 good sticks on Orthos then

Out of interest (and I know you said their out of stock atm) do I pay to ship the ram back to them?

Yup!

Yeah you do. £4.50 via RMSD or thereabouts. They pay for return shipping only.

You could ask them to refund you it but they will tell you to return them to the retailer instead as you didn't purchase them direct from Crucial.

Ah as long as they send me some new ones I can live with that.

You'll get some hot off the Micron line.

Coolio!

Well all sorted, spoke with them this morning and my RAM is in the post ready to go!

Apprently they start sourcing the new RAM now so once mine is tested and deemed faulty they ship it out

All sounds ok to me.

very impressed with the turn around for my faulty RAM

Post RMSD Monday morning, they got it Wednesday and posted the new sticks out yesterday and they just turned up with the posty now, all in and tested working fine

Niiiiiiiiice

Did they come in the flat box rather than the old square box?

No Cob, square box mate?

When I called yesterday to check and see how things were going the young lady said they'd only got them Wednesday, so I said oh ok you need to test so thats fine, she said 'test' ? no we shipped some new RAM out to you today?

Not complaining at all, very pleased!
