New built question

[xguy]

I'm just finishing building a new system :

 

http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=92397

 

specs(relevant to question):

 

Lanparty UT SLI-dr

X2 4400+

OCZ 4000 gold VX

PC P&C 850 power supply

 

Now the question is that the OCZ is rated as follows:

CL 2-3-3-8 at 2.6V(400MHz)

CL 2-2-2-8 at 3.3V(500MHz)

 

my question is this :

I have heard that people are having problems with PC P&C (the 850W in particular)when changing the dimm voltage jumper to the 4V, with power supply shutting down due to voltage over protection, so I wanna try to avoid that.

 

Can I run those OCZ's at a lower timing then 2-3-3-8 say 2-2-2-8 @400Mhz without the need to up the voltage so much, keeping the jumper at default?

 

thanks

Looks like you decided not to Skemp on the PSU ... lol ... good choice

 

i don't know if it is the PSU causing the problems as much as the 4V jumper casing the problem with the board/cpu/ram . Look here:

was having some issues with PC4000 vx the seems to have instantly fixed it's self by moving the jumper back and lowering voltage

Complete overkill, the 510SLI is more than enough.

 

The Vdimm problem is pretty universal,

but the 850W SSI's "may" have an additional issue if the +5V is used to power the RAM.

I recommend contacting PC P&C tech support before buying it.
