Yip that's correct

what will upping the voltage do?

Cob · 3 Nov 2007 at 14:29

It should make it run at 800mhz 4-4-4-12.

In my case I found that dropping the voltage to 2.0v was the only way to make this stuff stable @ 4.4.4.12

I'm not a big fan of this ram

Just done as you said upped the RAM to +0.3v and manually set the timmings to the above.

Just booted up, running ok (touch wood) for 5mins.

Will leave it for about a hour see if its crashes, then try TF 2 again.

Thanks a lot for all this help guys, hopefully get there in the end.

Just tried TF2 again, guess what.....same problem :mad:

Will try the Orthos testing next.

Just ran othos for just under an hour, no errors,

That on air? If so then gotta be one seriously cold room.

Room was @ 20C at the time, i have an XP-120 with AS5 on cpu+ 120mm fan on it,also i have side of case off with a 12" desk fan blowin into it.

This means its very cool, yet reasonably quiet.

At the moment the core is 25C @ ambient 20C, which is 5C difference, and i cant figure out why...cos before there was only 2-3C difference.

Maybe my deskfan has moved...

Yeah think thats what is was cos i just moved it so the airflow (outer portion of fan blades) is actually directly onto 120mm fan on cpu and it dropped 2C almost straight away.

Not to be rude or anything but your core certainly isn't at 25C, not a chance. That's a wrong reading for sure.
