kam33mitch Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 Just starting to O/C the system and I've been using the memory divider to keep the memory speed in an acceptable (bootable) range for my memory. At my latest speeds with FSB=250 and a memory divider of 150Mhz I should be getting about 250 * 1.5 x 2(DDR) = 375 Mhz. The POST screen says I'm running at DDR300. Should I even worry about that? Still have a lot of tweaking to do but just wanted to as a stupid question before I go way off in the worng direction possibly. Thanks.

KimTjik Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 As I understand it the first screen will show you DDR speed according to a default FSB bus frequency of 200. In this case it does correctly show DDR300, in other words as it should be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentlisten Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 POST only shows the set speed of your mem in relation to the stock FSB (200) Because you have a divider of 150Mhz you get DDR300 at POST If you run a program like cpuz in Windows then this will show your true mem speed.
