it ran an hour and half before failing memtest but had to give it 2.19volts.what do you think raise volts and try again or just rma because won't do 2.1volts @ spec?

Might be time for an RMA. Did you try more NB volts first? And are you sure that your board doesn't undervolt your ram?

Also make sure you are running 5 5-5-15 timings and 2T command rate. What are you using for NB volts?

Nope! Probablly where I'll end up getting another set. Though the jetram they sold me is rather disapointing.:(

what speeds did you get with it?

i have 2x2gb of pc6400 transcend jetram and its running at 1000mhz @ 5-5-5-16 - 1.95v, stock is 800mhz @ 5-5-5-16 - 1.8v.

not sure how much more they will do.

can someone check these settings for me and see if they can be improved? changing "performance level" from 8 or 9 down to 6 gave me a huge boost in bandwidth.

BINGO!
smart gaurdian shows ram @ 2.14 when set to 2.23 in bios
looks like ram is being undervolted by mobo

I wouldn't wager my life on SmartGuardian's accuracy, but it usually is reasonably close. Close enough to tell if you are undervolted.

what is safe max 24/7 nb voltage and axeram voltage?
smart gaurdian is reading other volts correctly. makes me think it is reading ram correctly also.close anyway.
where in everest does it show ram voltage?
thx

2.2V is perfectly safe for aXeRam. With a fan, I'll run 2.3V.

Rma Axe Pc2 8500

They are on the truck going back. i will get a new set and most likely sell them and stick with a brand i am comfortable with.it was most likely a fluke but frustrating none the less.i am looking for 1200mhz type speed so i can get everything out of my DFI UT P35 and Q6600.
cpu runs @ 3.6 low 40s during load while running prime95. i think it has to do with the transpiper that came with my mobo that has you lay a copper plate across your cpu and then you attach a large heatsink out the back of your computer but i think what helped the most is that the copper plate enabled me to put my cpu waterblock on much tighter then normal DUE TO RAISING FURTHER FROM THE MOBO HOLES TO SCREW IN. [sorry about capitols] it actually wouldn't boot at first until loosened the waterblock a bit. great temps i think for an overclocked Q6600.
later gang:toast:

I say give them a shot and see if they hit that. If not, sell them, and pony up the extra cash for a 1200MHz set.

do you think i could get more for them in a sealed package compared to being opened or do you think it won't make a difference.i'm thinking perhaps just selling them right away and going straight for a 1200mhz pack. food for thought

If you're worried about that, list them while they're sealed and see if you can sell them for a price you're willing to let them go for. If you can't get enough, try them yourself and take a small loss.

I'd say there's probably a $10 difference between sealed and lightly used. It depends on whether people know you or not, though.
