This page??

Right now on stock 2.2v, my memorys are at 5-5-5-15 1136. Hopefully this will be stable.

Yes that page. At the voltage you are running it makes no real difference if they are on or off. The bigger difference is found by just adding some direct airflow.

I couldn't get it stable there,
only 1113 5-5-5-15 I could.... Guess this isn't so great :cry:

You mean, your chip was cooler without any spreaders?
Or do you mean the thermal tape??

Yeah they ran cooler without the heat spreaders and I could overclock them further (this was with DDR ram). If a thermal epoxy was used instead of the tape, or use thermal paste and some clips to hold the spreaders on, then maybe the spreaders would have been worthwhile.

spencer22l · Apr 30, 2009

So, if I'm gonna keep it at stock 2.2v, what should I do?

remove both thermal tape and heat spreader? or just the thermal tape?
or remove both then replace the tape with my thermal paste??

And also, how much volt can I safely give to my rams??

For Elipedia, I'm not 100% sure, but I wouldn't go over 2.25v myself. Maybe 2.3v. Micron D9s can scale pretty well with extra voltage, in which case I wouldn't go over 2.35v. 2.4v is kind of the RAM killer for non-micron ICs.

Of course, all of this is at your own risk, and I am not at all liable if you fry your RAMs like chicken fingers

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

In the end at stock voltage I could only get it to stabilize at 1122mhz 5-5-5-15.

I even tried 1127 but that wouldn't work.

But still, thank you all for helping me find out my chips!

n-ster · May 1, 2009

just curious, but on what voltage did you do that? did you try 1122 cas 5 but on a lower voltages? cause sometimes you can OC more, but sometime you can lower voltages and still be stable

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

Ohh, I totally forgot about lowering my voltage.

It was at stock 2.2v, I'm gonna try and lower it now

n-ster · May 1, 2009

You could also try 2.25 or 2.3 (at your own risk but it should be fine) and try to clock higher

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

I might give those a try also,

and how would you test for stability?

I do 32m super pi, 4 short s&m memory test, 5 pass of linx

n-ster · May 1, 2009

I don<t know much about that lol

but memtest should be good...

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

I was thinking more of a quick test, but I think 32m pi is good.
Cus it seems that if I pass 32m pi, I pass everything else, but I dont always pass pi 32m
jus cus I passed other tests like even linpacks

n-ster · May 1, 2009

as I said, this isn't my forte so yo're probably more right than I am

so you tried to up or down you Vs?

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

Just stabilized with 2.1v I'm gonna lower it more now
then when I've got my lowest, I'll raise it a bit n try ocing more

n-ster · May 1, 2009

nice

IMO, I would just stay with the lowest you can get... That OC is probably enough anyways... if you want to do something, try to tighten your timings and giving it more voltage

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

I lowered it to 1.9v and ran 32m and it restarted like in a second...
So I raised it to 1.95 and now it's going good through 6 loop currently,
I think this will be stable. Afterward, I will test out higher clocks with 2.3v

I've already tried tightening it before at stock 1066 and 2.2v but didn't work even with 2.3v

n-ster · May 1, 2009

IMO, unless you get 1200+ with 2.3, stay at 1.9

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

I was thinkin the same also, thanks again

n-ster · May 1, 2009

np... but I'm pretty sure that I didn't help you much except reminding you that you could lower voltages lol

Can't wait to get a rig

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

well that was a lot of help, because raising my volt a bit didn't do anything!
So Im good with 1122 5-5-5-15 1.95v

When are you getting your new rig??

Check out the temperature testing on those.

Any reviews on the HDT spreaders yet? :eek:

I might get some if they prove effective.

No idea, lol

n-ster · May 1, 2009

idk... I think I'll get it beginning of July except the GPU... will wait for DX11... will probably buy the cheapest DX 11 I can find (in August) then upgrade later, like christmas/boxing day or Black friday

spencer22l · May 1, 2009

nicee, what kind of build? intel? amd? for game??

Anyways, for the new vga, get a cheap one that can oc a hell lot lol!
like 4830 can be oced to beat 4850 and 4770 can do that also i heard :laugh:

the sample never got sent, dont know If I will have the opprtunity, I would think the HDT pipe wuld make it better, but again I feel the ariflow is needed to make it woth anything.
