i_wheeldon Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 no no, The chips actually used on the PCB are revised chips. THey no longer 'die' If you read the last 2/3 pages of this thread you will see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlezcano Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Woohoo, I'll buy the TD1s then! From Newegg directly, $219,00 (no mail rebate for me). Hope this RAM will run ate 250MHz without a problem, that's all I need (maybe 260MHz). What about the new heatspreader (10th aniverssary)? It looks cool, those it improve the cooling? I doubt! Thanks guys! I'll keep posting info about my memory so you could compare too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even try hard (see signature), just waiting till December for some time to work on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, anything upto 250/260 people can get it with 2.6V, 280/290 2.7V and 300+ with 2.8V seems to be common place with these sticks. Less Voltage,m Longer life, Awesome memory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon464 Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Ok I just got some of these not the tracer kind. But anyhow I went into bios to change timings and wouldnt boot back up. Wouldnt get past 2 led light on the board. Put some older ocz mem in booted right up. I put the setting at 250 3,4,4,8 timings I only was really able to run it at 240 with 3338 o and both were at 2.6 volts. It was the first day I had it didnt get a chance to even run mem test that was what i was going to do when it locked up. Anyone have any ideas? Also when it was running it wasnt stable locked up twice in about. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would open a new thread though if no one helps ya here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast and Fastest are to much for these sticks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon464 Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 I just found out my bois code is 11/14/2005 trying to download a new one now but dfi seams to be down. Going to try to get 4/06/2006 well the one close to that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon464 Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Anyhow got it up and running I didnt really do to much running at 250 seamed running well did some benchmarks. Was able to play cs for a while.( I just wanted to kill people.) lol Any how seam like I have a lot of fine tuning to do. Did do a mem test for 2 runs and all seamed to be well at 250. I Will get a 10000 on 3dmark 05 cpu. Some thanks for the help all of you. I have to really start tighten the timings have them all really loose. I couldnt belive that I had shipping bois on the board thought I did refreshed that but I guess not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
