What volts were you working at?

Right now, stock.

AI Suite doesn't show but PC Probe does.

Notice that i had to reduce the multi because it was crashing

Help!!

Dr. Spankenstein · Apr 21, 2008

1200DDR2 @ 2.0V is pretty amazing and most likely pretty unstable for 800 speed RAM. (Going by Memset DDR2 speed)

I'm sure 2.1~2.2V would stablize.

Looking at the FSB in AI Suite, you're running @ 800?

I'm confused...

That makes 2 of us

It's @ 800 MHz.

I ran MSConfig and saw (sp?) an entry for MemSet and disabled it. I'll try my previous overclock to see if it helped.

EDIT

Seemed better, but it still crashed. @ least, it entered windows ...

Already uninstalled MemSet.

I'm running @ stock speed but with DRAM @ 2.06 in BIOS

Earlier today, i lapped the stock cooler and the processor, but i had it running for a few hours before this happened so i suppose it's just coincidence

Decided to push the boat out abit and test my ram at higher mhz using same preformance level of 8

fsb @ 8x 460 also

this is at 920mhz

this is the highest ive pushed my ddr2 so far @1100mhz had to change to cas 6 and up the trfc to 60 and voltage at 2.2v

Nitro-Max · Apr 22, 2008

Wow I love my reapers all of a sudden lol 1100mhz from 2 gig blocks which dont normally oc as good as the 1 gig reaper blocks.

rangerone766 · Apr 22, 2008

i'm loving these axe's. makes overclocking so much easier. i guess my old crucial lanfest really wern't compatible. i mean the crucial's worked ok, but didnt clock real well on my board. then they died lol.

Nitro, is that version of Everest free?

Nitro-Max · Apr 22, 2008

Not sure m8 i got both versions been using them for a while now its never asked me to register everest ultimate edition.

infrared · Apr 22, 2008

Very nice rangerone766!

10,724mb/s Read is the figure to beat then. Damn. I can get 10,500 with 1240mhz on my Supertalents, but that's about as far as they'll go.

Those Axes are brutal! Are they the pc2-9600's or pc2-8500's?

Anusha · Apr 22, 2008

This is not the max overclock on the RAM. But I can't go higher because the CPU (E6300) is not stable after around 407FSB at 1.2375V (a single FSB higher would require massive amounts of vcore to be stable in Prime)

This is at 1.8V.

My friend has the same RAM and he has gotten them to 960MHz at 5/5/5/15 at 1.8V!!! I couldn't get them that high though.

JrRacinFan · Apr 22, 2008

This is with ram @ 2.2v

Fixed: FINALLY!!!

Although i uninstalled MemSet, it stayed booting in windows startup and even though i disabled the entry with msconfig, it still messed up. Had to run regedit and remove any an all entries with MemSet on them for it to stabilize.

Check the first pic i posted in this topic that has the MemSet in it (post #22).

Notice how the mem's speed in MemSet does NOT match that of Everest: only noticed this now, which means it was botched from beginning, before i used it.

All i tried to do was:

change tRD from 7 to 5 --> instant freeze

After reboot, change tRD from 7 to 6 --> it accepted and asked to reboot.

After reboot, all hell broke loose ...

still need to play with the timings a bit. . .

What's the program you used for the right part of that pic?

AphexDreamer · Apr 22, 2008

Hey I think you should also include how much RAM they are OCing the RAM with. For instance I could Overclock my Crucial far more with less volts on 2x1GB of it then with my currently installed 4x1GB.

Duh

EDIT

Doesn't show tRD

spud107 · Apr 22, 2008

maybe because iv only got ddr? memset says same, is trd similar trrd?

I think tRD and tRRD are 2 different things, but i'm not sure.

Hi guys,i'm getting some 8500 tracers tommorow,Please tell me they're better than my 6400 reapers i have now,which struggle over 900.
