MAXXMEM Benchmark Results Thread

the problem is this is my main gamming rig and i play games and run apps that go over 4 gb used. (the reason i bought gskill) and i know that my kingston can do 2700@ 1066 @1.8v.
I think i am going to try and trade this ram for other ram. i think the problem is caused by my gskill being t1 and kingston being t2 @ 1066. i know ddr2 is old but im still getting the same #'s as my friends ddr3 1600.

Get an AM3/AM3+ board and some DDR3. Don't bother with DDR2 anymore. Plus, I'm sure your motherboard is going to eventually explode from the stress you're putting on it. You're brave. :laugh:
 
School cost to much. i wont be able to buy any other big parts untill im done. And by that time they will have 16x core cpu's and ddr5 ram.

So im going to have some fun "look what i can do" untill it all falls down.
 
I'm just wondering what exactly you are doing that needs more than 4gb? Close some processes before gaming?

On the other hand, would you guys be interested in adding some graphs or tables with some #'s to the OP. I'm thinking like sorting by AMD or Intel and maybe getting averages or something like that. Any ideas?
 
Okay, coaxed 1000 more out of memory copy, but considering I enabled triple channel, not good. Must tweak more, so just showing this....

Well, can't go faster, so went tighter. Liking these G.Skills, can't believe a cas9 2t kit will do this stable at the voltage they are doing it at!

New laptop

Just got tht new asus gming laptop and its over kill it can hold up to 16gb of ram dule channle 2x 750 gb hard drives and a 560m 2gb card. cpu hits 60-68 deg max and the gpu hts 50-65 max.

hmm ..interesting

Really it's kinda bad result. Because of architecture limits there is almost no difference between 1800 and 2400 transfers. Like in Phenoms, higher NB and some other settings = higher bandwidth but here I can't set all buses so high as in Phenom. I can't set NB much above 2600 no matter what voltages when on Phenom I was able to pass 3000 on about the same voltage ( probably better cooling would help a bit ). Still working on it and today I got new beta bios so will try something after work ...
Here is 2000 8-9-8 ( 8GB but almost all settings the same as for 4GB ... and results too ):

I didn't try w8. Maybe during weekend.
 
it's not bad ..it's just sad and wondering if W8 or new bios will make a dent,keep us updated
Powodzenia
 
Thought I'd throw in my DDR2 results in case anyone's interested.

I did quite a bit of testing a while ago but unfortunately seem to have mislaid the results. These were the best settings I found though, and bumping the NB from 2000 to 2250 gave quite a boost (I think it affected the write speeds most), as did overclocking the FSB to 250.

Yeah...that 10 tRCD def doesn't help.

It's on 2300+ memory clock ... it's hard to find any chips that can make it under tRCD10 ;)
I meant that overall performance on FX memory controller is kinda bad and looks like it's limited to about ~1866MHz memory bandwidth. Keeping the same CPU-NB I can change memory from ~1800 to 2400 and I almost won't see any difference in maxxmem max transfers ( +/- 500MB/s and some little changes in latency are like nothing ).
~2400 NB = mem copy ~16000
~2600 NB = mem copy ~16500
~2750 NB = mem copy ~16700
I have big problems with stability if I set anythign higher than ~2700 CPU-NB, no matter what voltage.
I also checked HT up to 4000MHz ( yes 4k :) ) and FSB up to 305MHz that make no difference in this test.

If anyone is using 990FXA-UD5 board then latest beta F7a is working the same as F6 or F6D. I really have no idea what they changed. I was counting on LLC options in BIOS but there is nothing new :(
