Tryed this RAM in my pc at home and it would not work and have RMA'd it so brought it into work to post it, but i though 1 would try them at work in a hp dc7700 and it works, RAM cpu-z and it said it was
PC2 8900 (555mhz)timings 5-7-7-25
OC Websaid said memory was pc2-8500 5 -5 -5- 15 but was showing in cpu-z at 5-5-5-18 pc2-6400 (the most this work HP will do it think)
Now my questions are
1, instead of sending it back today should it try it at home with the 5-5-5-18 timings 400mhz
2 try it with the 5-7-7-25 settings 555mhz,
3 if the 555mhz settings work is it worth keeping it in the system and forgetting the RMA, ie are these timings ok for pc2-8900
any options welcome as new to this RAM latency thing
