jalapeno Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 Well, encountered 2 more little buggers... Nr.1) When using 10x250 the system seems to be quite fine. The CPU itself can handle more (2.6-2.7 depending on VCore) and the RAM is capable too (OCZ Pl Rev2 - can do 275 @ 2,5-3-3-x 1T) So if I use 10x250 1:1 it looks fine - if I use 10x255 the system becomes unstable (eventhough the Voltages, the LDT and everything else is set to its proper settings) :confused: Nr.2) For testing the RAM I had to use the 8x Multi, since the 9x Multi is a mess - with 8x everything is smooth and I can jack the OCZs all the way up there. If I use 9x (e.g. 240) even memtest already tells me to go home Anyone else experiencing the problems? PS: CG 3.000+ (NC), 2x512 OCZ Pl Rev 2, DFI ut 250, 09/14 Oscar BIOS, 550W LC Power PSU Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scyphe Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 1) Your chipset has reached it's current peak. Probably borderline @ 250 and cross the line @ 255. 2) That one is weird. Can't repro here though since I only use FSB lower than 240 at the moment (S-ATA-bug). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooops - that would reaaaaally suck big time - put it on 1,7V - maybe I should try 1,8 oder 1,9V Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShRoOmAlIsTiC Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 my 9 multi is fubared too. I was running at 10x250 memtest stable but if I drop the muti to a 9 memtest gets 100k+ errors Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedy Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 10.5 is the best multi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess1313 Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 Originally posted by Tedy 10.5 is the best multi what makes you say that man? humm, i have done some testing in memtest at 8, 9, and 10, my max stable at ANY multi, is 258mhz@2-2-2-6. i get no errors at any of those multies. at 260, 8, 9, and 10 give errors. so all my multies are acting the same what your experiencing seems very strange??

chris.y2k.r1 Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 I don't know how anyone can say XX is the best MULTI. It all depends on your RAM and CPU. My multi is never the problem, the XP-2600 M will handle whatever you throw at it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My multi is never the problem, the XP-2600 M will handle whatever you throw at it. yes this is true, i feel the reason Tedy says 10.5 multi is the best, is because, it unknownly puts your ram on a ratio(as does all .5 multies). and it probobly alows hit to get a "higher" mem speed, but really, it doesnt, its a CPU-z/CLockgen/sandra/memtest/anythings else that tells what your mems at, Error/bug. at 10.5(if your at 1:1 in bios) your rams on a "10.5 : 11" ratio. say your at 10.5x238=2500. your ram really wouldnt be at 238, i would be at 227mhz(10.5:11) so 11x227=2500mhz, would, accaully be "the same" as 10.5x238. unknowingly, the usuer thinks there ram is faster:( i know this from experiance^^^^:nod: GL:D -Jess- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalapeno Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 I got no idea where this comes from. It' so odd :mad: Can't use that multi - whatsoever. Memtest always tells me to simply pack my things, go home and take a rest :confused: Semms like ShRoOmAlIsTiC is havin' the same trouble - don't know which BIOS he's using though. Herad of that strange behavior in a different forum too. I am not sure, if I'll take the risk of the 10/15 BIOS - since the last one 10/05 killed my HDDs (wasn't fix anymore) EDIT: Don't know why they moved this thread - it's supposed to be one for further BIOS improvements - the 9x Multi has nuthin' to do with OC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
