**WANT 8GB 2400MHz FOR AS LITTLE AS £59.99 Inc. VAT? - THEN CHECK THIS THREAD OUT!!** (MV-3V4G3D/US)

if its stable elswhere then i wouldnt worry too much,ive passed super pi 32m yet crashed out in the first few minutes of gaming,so id take it with a pinch of salt,its not a very demanding memory test
 
hehe :) cheers

I'm normally at 1.555V for 2200 10-12-12-25-1T

I just tried bumping a few notches for Superpi to no avail, retried then at 1.6V and it always goes to "not responding" after 4 mins - how odd

I'll mess around more tomorrow - I've a 12 mile run at 8.30am so need some sleep before then

cheers :)
 
After all that work mine weren't stable at 8-9-10-21 88 CR1 1.6V, so I've clocked at 1600 CL9 for stability till I can be bothered to put an optical drive back in to use memtest. Was causing GW2 to crash every 10 min or so due to referenced memory not found issues...after putting them on stable timings the game runs fine lol. 12 mile run...LOL have fun.
 
Go 8-10-10-21 1T 96. or 8-11-11-21 1T 96 and you should regain stability. In those primary timings your setting up like Hynix IC not Samsung.

I think this is my issue as well. Although it passes memtest and superpi fine for me but real use unstable. Such as gaming. Been running prime for a few mins on the middle test to see if everything is ok and that's when I get cores dropping out.


8 pack I was wondering about vdroop with those digi settings you gave us, is that normal? It means having to use a high vcore to compensate or increase llc which I know you don't recommend. I was wondering about vcore ofset instead but I need to play with this as I think the vcore would be too low. I did notice that on default performance settings that the vcore overshoots by 0.1v

anyway for anyone with a Asus, use Rog connect, it's great for testing things quickly without locking yourself out of bios because of silly settings.

oh and BrianB, use a memory stick for memtest.

@ Deaths we will chat on MSN at some stage later today.

ROG connect is excellent yes. Remember to install Intel management engine and ROG connect plus to change BLK once in OS.
 
For my 2400mhz settings I changed LB to 9 (from 8) and TRFC to 112 (from 96) and regained stability in Prime. This is with my CPU clocked at 4.4ghz.

The ram passed memtest fine but it kept making the cpu's crap out in prime doing the in place large FFTs test. I've found this to be a good gadge of stability when running for a few mins.
Anyone know what the problem was and why changing what seemed to be stably settings on my ram fixed it?
FYI, the CPU overclock isn't the problem here as it fails in prime with stock clocks on cpu.


8 pack, i've left msn going on my phone so give me a shout if you come on and I'll go to my comp.

I'm using the 8-10-10-21 96 CR1 hopefully it's stable at 1.5V (1866MHz). I'm keeping my 3570K at 4.2 because it runs on stock volts like this. Needs 1.26ish for 4.5GHz and temps are much better at 4.2. :)
 
At 2400 I said LB's best trade off between speed and stability for these DIMMS is 9. TRFC try 114 to be safe. Then I am sure your sorted.

Yes I remember you saying. Just thought it was ok after memtest passed. Obviously I'm still learning. Anyway glad that's sorted. Just need to sort out the vcore now, before having a solid overclock to refine.
 
What timings are people using for 2200 or 2133mhz (or whatever that option is, forgot the mhz...)

Stable with my 2400mhz, 4.4ghz cpu overclock now and I'm thinking that I might be able to get tighter ram at lower speeds. Which I believe is better?

No its certainly not better!!! Your settings are faster.

What VTT do you guys use for 2000Mhz? I can't seem to boot at 2400 even at 1.65V. PLL is at 1.8V but wondering if I can lower it. Vcore 1.27, DDR 1.6v, VTT 1.1v, PLL 1.8v

We're all on different platforms here so be careful what you choose!!

I'm on 1.12v (3930K)
 
Yeah :) I don't know what the limit is tbh, I was told to go for 1.1v for Gigabyte boards, does seem to help a bit. Trying to find the right clock for my ram but not sure how to get it running as high as 2400MHz, won't even boot 2200 at 1.65.
