Cant find memory timings

robj20 · 16 Jun 2007 at 22:53

Just got my GA-P35-DQ6 running and come to set the memory timings and i cant find them any where, surely they should be with the voltages and fsb speed. Help please.

i think ctrl F1 opens more BIOS options check there.

Could be wrong

On mine, i have to go to something like "Advanced Chipset Options" then "Memory Timings" and all the info's in their.

I will give it ago thanks.

Nope ctrl F1 does nothing.

This is what the bios looks like.

millsy888 · 16 Jun 2007 at 23:13

thats not the main screen for the bios right ?

robj20 · 16 Jun 2007 at 23:14

no its the M.I tweaker section.

yeah can't find mine either p35c-ds3r looks like a similar bios, they must be in there somewhere?

millsy888 · 16 Jun 2007 at 23:15

i think the mem timings are under a different section of the bios, go to main screen and just look around.

probs under advanced settings or something similar

edit - Got an option in the bios for advanced chipset ?? under that i think

Got it, from the main BIOS screen press CTRL+F1 and then go into tweaker. Why do they have to hide them.

I had the same trouble too, but you only need to press Ctr+ F1 on the OPENING BIOS Screen, then go to MI tweaker screen and the mem timings will be there.

millsy888 · 16 Jun 2007 at 23:25

sorry, should have said that you needed to be on the main bios screen, at least you have them now

dunker · 16 Jun 2007 at 23:28

that worked for me thanks

is there anywhere in the bios that shows memory voltage?

Thats exactly what i was thinking, i cant get my memory running at 4-3-3-10 it keeps putting it back to 5-5-5-18. Wondering if its the voltage but no idea what its at.

you did'nt hit "quit without saving" by accident? sorry but that's all i can think of.

well i managed to change my 4x1gig (spd 5-5-5-18) of geil 6400 ull to 4-4-4-12 and just testing it without changing the mobo default voltage (easytune5 says its at 1.9v) it's passed memtest upto test7 (got bored waiting) and it's just done 30mins orthos blend test. seems this mobo is great with ram

when i changed the cas from 5 to 4 the pc powered down for about 1 sec then started up keeping the settings, weird, has'nt done it since, wonder what that's about?

If you change a setting and it doesnt like it, it will power down and change the setting back and try booting again. Its got my mem voltage at 1.85 might try at about 1.95 or 1.2 see if that will keep the timings.
