extol1337 Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 got my RAM, PSU and case in the mail im using the mobo, the crucial ram that came with the $200 system and raptor hd right now. I cant use the GSKILL on the DG965SS mobo because it only supports 1.8V vdimm and i need at least 2.0V on the gskill... It doesnt POST with the gskill haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about using another stick of RAM, setting the voltage to 2V, then putting the G.Skill back in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about using another stick of RAM, setting the voltage to 2V, then putting the G.Skill back in? yup no dice cuz the mobo has no vdimm settings (i guess i gotta wait till i get the P35 T2R). did a bit of research on the intel site: Home Edited October 6, 2007 by extol1337 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
