HELP ON CLOCKING MY RAM NOW CPU IS FINALLY STABLE!!

smegle · 20 Mar 2007 at 19:22

Hi guys,
I`ve finally managed to get my E6600 stable at 3.240 ghz @1.40vcore with a load after 8 hours of dual prime 95 (small ffts) @ 53 deg. I wanna let the TIM on my tuniq cure so wanna get the ram up to speed now. My ocz gold edition 667 is running (according to cpuz) at :

360mhz
FSB - 1:1 (set at sync in bios)
CAS latency @ 5
RAS CAS delay @ 6
RAS precharge @ 6
Cycle time @17
bank cycle time @ 22
command rate @ 2T
voltage is 2.1 in bios

I`m aware that the fsb is overclocked but would i be better setting it at a 667 divider in the bios then trying to tighten up the above settings? (ANY ADVICE ON WHICH TO CHANGE WOULD BE AWESOME AS THE MEMORY CONFUSES ME!!!)
Thanks for the help!
Cheers,
Smegle

I`ve found this review on the ram, shall i try the timing they have tried here and see if it stays stable through a prime 95 blend run (do i still have to run two prime 95`s as i`m just going for ram now)

review
(timings used are 5-5-5-15)

Mine do 800mhz exactly at 5-5-5-15 timings, however I wouldn't worry about it. Increasing the FSB by 5-10 would probably see larger gains than running the memory at 800mhz.

I only run them at 800mhz because I have an e6300.

shall i change mine them cause they are running at 5-5-6-17 at the moment (see first post)

do you have the same ram as me?
also what volts are you puuting through it to get that fsb?

You may as well, won't hurt.

Exactly the same ram I think, OCZ Gold GX 667Mhz, I believe I am using 2.3v, however I have tried higher to no avail.

so you run at 5-5-5-15

what ovther settings dio you use. like 2t or 1t?
what bank cycle time do you use?
