SSD question, RAM problem

Dave0w · 12 Apr 2012 at 11:31

First, i have just got a OCZ vertex2 and i want to know where do i get the best software to monitor the health of the drive. all i can find on OCZ's site is stuff to flash the drive.

Second, i can't get my 1600MHZ ram to run at 1600Mhz. i think it may be a mother board problem because i have the same board in 2 systems and it blue screens ever time i try to make it run in 1600Mhz.

Board: Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H
Ram: HERE + HERE

can somone tell me the timings i should be running and @ what volts

Thanks ppl

Can't link as I'm at work but I'm sure I have a program called SSD Life installed on my machine... I'm sure someone else will link.

The grey sticks want 1.65v for 1600MHz, the blue ones only need 1.5v unfortunately I doubt you'll be able to run them at different voltages though. Maybe try find something in the middle that works for both could be worth trying, I wouldn't be happy pushing the 1.5v ram to much higher though it's not desinged for it.
