brad257 Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Voltage is to be set between 1.85v and 1.9v. I have had to add 0.35v as DDR standard is 1.5v its reading 1.88v with the 0.35v increase Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad257 Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Dunno what happend to the test but it stopped at 3hr 47mins with over 6 million errors. This to me seems extremly bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Nate Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Dunno what happend to the test but it stopped at 3hr 47mins with over 6 million errors. This to me seems extremly bad? If you're at manufacturer specs (timings, speed, voltage), and it gives you that many errors...I would RMA the memory. You can also call OCZ tech support and see if they have any suggestions, they might be able to start the RMA process that way, as well.

Sharp Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Hello, What power supply do you have? (Brand/model/wattage). Also try using just one memory module at a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markiemrboo Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 typo, lol 1.1875 i think cant remember, thats just what the mobo is set to on auto im not really sure what it should be set at? My Q9300 is 1.225v at stock. Perhaps worth setting it to that manually, if auto is thinking it should be 1.1875... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
