MaMMa Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 I have 3 X 512 Cosair PC3500 BH-5s THey all are running 200 FSB X 13 @ 2-2-2-5 now prime stable for an hour, havent tried any longer yet. When I try it as 217 fsb or anything over 200 FSB then prime and memtest fails. My vdimm is maxed out. I've tried looser timings, still no go. Should I conclude that my sticks are bad?

Mott13 Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 Have you tried lowering the multi to say like 9 or 10 then raise the fsb? also I believe yo aint gonna have much luck with 3x512 due to the nfII mem controller, most peeps with high fsb have a gig max.I would try high fsb with 2x512 first to see how high you can go then throw the other one in and do some benchies to compair.But I dont think yur gonna see much diff with the xtra 512...Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostock62 Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 MaMMa have you tryed to run each stick on its own to see if you have a bad one.I kind of dought that all your sticks are no good. If you find that your set up runs better on 2 sticks like Mott13 suggested and would like to sell one let me know.But i realy hope you get it right with your set up.

MaMMa Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 oops, I forgot to say that I did have a lower multiplyer. Was running them at like 255X10. Anyways, I will test them one by one now. I really want all my sticks though. Also How would my oc be with these sticks and posibbly a fourth bh-5 with an a64? just wondering if I should keep these or get a whole new set when I hop on a64.

MaMMa Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 2-2-2-11 will not work. Nothing over 200 FSB really. I really dont want cas 2.5 or 3 on these BH-5s. Its wierd and it sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
klrgreenis Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 Sounds strange but try putting dif sticks in dif slots. My last LP B mobo had to have 1 512m stick in slot 3 and 1 in slot 2 if I swapped the two around it would fail memtest an prime right away, but if I had them in "correctly" it would pass both ??
