rourkchris Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 You need to set the DRAM voltage, speed, and timings manually in your BIOS. It defaults to PC6400 until you set it to the correct speeds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What speeds should i set to? Default they are: CL 5-5-5-18 (CAS-TRCD-TRP-TRAS). Also, my voltage will only go to 2.175V without adjusting anything else.

rourkchris Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 533 which will equal 1066. Rated voltage is 2.1v-2.2v. Yours will probably work at 2.175 if it needs over 2.1v. Your timings are already set correctly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
