bearcat245 Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 I had to run some tests on the CPU and lowered the FSB to 255 getting me 2805 Mhz. I then just upped the memory FSB divider to 01/01 and it is at 255. I will experiment, but don't want to push it too far. I am very happy so far with the results from my DFI board. My former Asus AN8-SLI Premium using the same AMD 4200+ only clocked at 2750 and didn't even get close to 200 in memory. Followup: the next divider is 07/06 and I get 297 which is obviously too high. I don't see where in this BIOS I can manually change this setting instead of using the divider. I know I am missing something that must be obvious.

Sharp Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 You cant, the dividers are fixed and you can only choose the pre-defined values. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearcat245 Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 I am happy with 255. Now I am ready to play with it a little. Thanks for all the help and info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nil Einne Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 If it came down to a choice between 2x1gb RAM sticks with Samsung UCCC memory chips and same with Infineon BE-5 memory chips, assuming everything else (brand etc) being same which one would you recommend? It seems to me like in the reports on Xtremesystems the BE-5 tend to clock slightly lower (on average) but with better timings. However there also seems to be less experience and more problems with BE-5 on the DFI NF4 mobos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 I would always go for the low timings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilko Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I'm a new poster here(so do excuse my bad english). I need new RAM, so I have done some research. And this is what I have found: 1) OCZ CZ5002048EBPE-K2 http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetai...oductCode=85202 2) OCZP5002GXTC-K http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820227080 3) F1-4000BIU2-2GBHV (G.Skill) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820231057 4) F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820231021 I will be OC'ing, but not over 250fsb (near it; i am new to all this). So i need advice from you profesionals out there. The first one has best timings (don't no which chip it uses, infineon?), the second one, I heard is a good one (and is uccc chip and good for OC). The third one, I don't know nothing about (hope you will shed some knowledge). And the last one, I added to the list after reading through this thread. (good for OC, but has higher timings). So which one should i take? Do i need better OC preformance or better timings (because i probaly won't be OC'ing over 250)? I would apriciate if you could answer me by tomorrow or day after tomorrow. If not i will probably choose on my own between # 1 & 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Hello, Yeah first one = Infineon. 3rd one = Infineon Go for the first one Infineon are good for 250Mhz and will be able to reach near 280Mhz with 3-3-2-8 timings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller1236 Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 I am about to purchase 2Gb Gskill F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ, question will I have to update my bios and what kind of timing should I set these at, and what would be a good setting for oc'ing with my system. And is this a good choice for memory. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidfire Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 im also having trouble deciding on weather to go with. 1) OCZ CZ5002048EBPE-K2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820227225 or 4) F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820231021 Can the infineon chips really do 275? if they can i definitly think those would be my sweet spot, but i hear alot of people saying they max out ~255-260 I would like to keep fsb around 275 but i wasnt sure weather it would be better to go with the G.Skill for the uccc or the ocz with lower timings. Opinions, suggestions? anything else to reccomend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 Miller, You will not need to update your bios. 3-4-4-8 when at 250Mhz, rest should work fine on AUTO. Good OCing settings create a thread in the OCing section when you have them. LiquidFire When the kits with Infineon first came out some did not oc well but the more recent ones can reach 275Mhz.
