Where do I get that from?

Hey guys, I just ordered some GIEL Black Dragons from the EGG and I was wondering If any of you here know exactly how good these sticks are. I know they are better than my current set, but Im just trying to see If I made a good purchase. I bought these for the sole purpose of OC ablity and the 32$ pricetag with free shipping. Thanks :D
 
Some good ol' G.Shitz :D

My Results

Here's a screeny of my results (they used to be much better until i updated my bios)

Silkstone/8426/6168/6338/58.4ns (read/write/copy latency)

They used to be 8618/5965/6598/56.5 without any tweaking of timings (5-5-5-18) damn asus board won't let me roll back the bios either :(
 
Thats pretty darn good on a G33 Silkstone. Really good!
 
Okay, JrRacinFan has been helping me get more performance out of my RAM, and you can see the difference! :D

Before tweaks:

After tweaks:

Its even improved the general responsiveness of windows! So my new results are:

alexp999|8339mb/s|7278mb/s|7964mb/s|61.4

I can believe its even improved the cache speeds and latencies! Thanks again Jr :respect:
 
Update Me!

You are very welcome!!!!

Thanks Jr, if i had a 3.5fdd drive i would roll back my bios and clock the ram to around 1200 to see what results i could get. damn asus board won't let me do it through the bios option, i also can't up the NB voltage or get ram past 2.1v.

Also using mixed memory which isn't a good combo, i got really lucky with some BGA kingmax 2gb for about $30 with excellent timings, then i upgraded by another 2gb (couldn't get the same memory) i had to pay $53 for some German mem with worse timings :(

Are you sure you cant roll back. My Asus board lets me use an older bios with the bios flash utility. It just comes up with a notification and I flash anyway.
 
Yea, i have a usb. I've tried using it to boot. Nothing but problems, it's a real hassle tring to find a decent utility and then the boot file. most of them i tried need you to have a spare fd to copy the bootfile from! I also have a load of boot CD's (Hirens,+)_ but i can't find the option to boot into dos.
I have to update thru bios and it won;t accept an older version

p.s. any tips on timings to lower to get better results, Jr?
 
1, Get a SPARE usb drive or backup your stuff to be replaced after the flash, then go here:
http://www.bay-wolf.com/usbmemstick.htm
And follow the instructions (You dont need to do the last step to add CD support)

2, Copy your files across that you need for flashing

3, With your USB still plugged in, reboot your computer and enter your bios. Set the USB drive as the first boot device, or enable F12 boot selection for example, if its easier. Save and restart.

4, Once your computer boots up, you should now see the BIOS boot from the USB key, and be greeted by a DOS prompt.

5, To ensure things are going smoothly, type dir, then press enter. You should see all the files contained on the USB

6, Use your dos prompt like you do on a bootable floppy.

Let me know how it goes.
 
Trying it now... i'll update

1st attempt> no good wouldn't boot after i copied the bios files over. Trying again......

So is it that you cant get the USB to boot, or when you flash it wont let you?

I take it you are letting the BIOS boot from the USB, i.e not entering the BIOS flash utility?
