geil ultra ddr 800 help needed

[JohnGraham]

hi

ive just had a new system built with 2gb geil dual channel in it

the cpu is am2 4600

mobo is
ecs c51gm


anyhow, in cpu-z its telling me the ram is only running at cas 5 and at just over 300mhz


ive tried to change the ram settings in bios but seen no changes in the results of the program

my bios has only 3 options,

1. choose wether to use the max memory timings or auto

2. (only availible if auto isnt selected for 1) select ddrs speed from 400, 667, 800)

3. increase voltage by *normal *50 mV *100mV *150mV

changing the settings doesnt seem to have any effect though, can anyone help? it would be really appriciated

if anyone needs any pics of the bios, which is pheonix i think, or the cpu z then ill be happy to post them

Glad 2 see its up and running. Sounds like u not the only one m8.

"BIOS is _horribly_ limited. DRAM voltage only configurable from 1.8v to 1.95v with 3x .5v increments. My OCZ DDR800 RAM will not boot in dual channel, no matter what. No memory timing control or HTT clock control whatsoever. ECS BIOS update for this series of boards is nonexistant, making it an extremely risky purchase if you do not have the exactly certified RAM sticks"

Mabye a future bios update will sort it out. I would set to max mem, 800 and +150mv.
