DDR2 RAM Settings on DS3P??

[Warpy]

I can't seem to find the DDR2 RAM timings in my BIOS. The RAM also needs 1.85v and the DDR2 Voltage option doesn't support that, anyone else get this?

On the main BIOS screen press CTRL+F1 and go to MIB and you will see all the advanced settings.

Use the [+0.1] RAM voltage option for 1.85V. It's fine. Believe me - give it a couple of hours and you'll be running [+0.3]

Thanks, but +0.1 isn't 1.85v or is it?

 

[Warpy]

But I think you'll find that your RAM is rated at 1.85V+/-10% so anything up to 2.1 is OK.

Yup that's right

So how do you work out the voltage like 0.1v being equal to 1.9v?

 

[Warpy]

[adopts patient, but not yet condescending, tone]Because stock is 1.8V and you're adding 0.1V so that makes 1.9V[/tone off]

I need to show you a screenshot of my BIOS screen... I don't see 1.xxx at all. I'll take a screenie for you

In the overclocking section of the 1st post it explains about the memory voltages.

Ok thanks.

I am after memory timing also, and I can't find these anywhere in the BIOS. I'll check that thread you posted.

see my problem now.... I don't have this screen:

I don't have 1.8v or anything as you can see from my screen shots. And as for the memory timings - I don't have that option either?? I also don't need to press CTRL F1 as it's already there on my main screen.

All fixed Mem and 1.9v too

He had dual BIOS thats why he couldn't see the voltages/timings properly. He was looking at the old BIOS.

I am his brother yeah its true Thanks WJA!

Cheers bro.

I updated the backup BIOS with the main BIOS - I went into that EZBIOS program that resides within the BIOS, it was set to backup as default! Kinda odd... all fixed now though, thanks all
