darkside1016 Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 I popped in my new memory today, and ran at all stock settings and didnt tweak anything, all left on auto, except I put vdimm to stock, considering it was left at 2.65V, and stock is 2.75V My system runs fine while doing basic things, even sandra bandwith benchmarks. But when I go into pretty much any game, after a little while the computer locks up and emits high pitched whines from my speakers. I know its the new memory, system ran fine before, I have an advanced mobo so I'm assuming its because I need to tweak my memory settings, but I have no idea what to put them at. I would appriciate any help at all with these memory sticks ( see sig for specs ). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkside1016 Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 I've seen some other people run into problems like this aswell, where BIOS did not pick up stock SPD timings. "I found with this new memory kit was that it may not be quite as "plug'n'play" as we would have liked to have seen. The SPD timings weren't picked up by the DFI Ultra-D so we had to hop into the memory section of the BIOS and adjust the values - this for overclockers is just second nature, however someone not hip to the BIOS of a motherboard might be a bit intimidated." Considering again I have a DFI board which needs some tweaking Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
learners permit Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 That TREF doesnt look right I'm using 2 gigs and Tref is 2064. Albeit two very different setups but you might give it a try. From auto setting tap the + key until you get to the second 2064 in the menu since there are two values for 2064 available in TREF settings.

darkside1016 Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Alright I will try that, anyone have any other recommendations for timings? ( see above attached image ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkside1016 Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Well it helped alot with my speed, went from 3400MB/s to 5000 or so...so that must have been part of it... Still hanging in most 3d apps and some benchmarking tools, especially 3dmark. Doesn't anyone else have this memory? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

learners permit Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 The read to write delay is 8? Should be 2 or 3. I would try 3 to start cuz 2 is a little tight for 250. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
learners permit Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 I think those modules are based on the same ic's I'm using. CPU-Z timings at 200 are 2,3,2,5? I might be wrong tho. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
