Mayhem Posted July 6, 2005 Posted July 6, 2005 Hi there again Right I have just orderd the following from overcloker.co.uk OCZ PC3200 EL DDR 2x512Mb Dual Channel Gold Kit 2-2-2-5 OCZ PowerStream 600W ATX PSU Now this stuff has cost me a small fortune £297 inc vat and P&P all becuase you all seem to advise this stuff. 1) what bios on my DFI SLI bord should i use ? 2) What are the bios settings i should you for the ram i have got ? Plz dont baffle me with sicence and nosical calcs cos i just do not under stnd them plz. Just what are the bios settings i should set in the Ram Part and the voltage.

Many thks Hey man, You should PM Angry_Games....he swears by both the RAM and power supplies you have chosen, and has good experience getting your memory to perform well. He'll have lots of suggestions for ya, and will give you the best answers you could hope for. You should also specify for him at what speeds you want them to run at....and I'm almost 100% positive he will tell you to flash to the 510-2 BIOS, if you want to prepare Cheers and Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pershoot Posted July 6, 2005 Posted July 6, 2005 try these to start with. flash to 704-2 (link in my sig for botable iso(s)): cl1.5: A/SPD(bios 702)-A-1.5-2-2-2-9-12-2-2-1-2-3120-A-E-A-0-3/1-1/A-7/8/A-F-5/5.5/A-16-D-16-7-D cl2: A/SPD(bios 702)-A-2-2-6-2-10-12-2-2-2-3-3120-A-E-A-0-3/1-1/A-7/8/A-F-5/5.5/A-16-D-16-7-D LDT: 3x >248, 4x <248 @ start at stock V Chip: Start at stock V PCI-E Payload: 128 if using manual LDT, 4096 if using Auto LDT Multi: 9x/8x/7x (to test for max HTT, then raise multi afterwards to max allowed by your cooling, etc., and adjust HTT as needed) Vdimm: start at 2.8v rotate sticks to lessen errors. switch slots if within OS stress u are bottlenecked. good luck.

Holy Poo and Ni !!!! how do i put that in the bios - Ref = cl2: A/SPD(bios 702)-A-2-2-6-2-10-12-2-2-2-3-3120-A-E-A-0-3/1-1/A-7/8/A-F-5/5.5/A-16-D-16-7-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Posted July 6, 2005 Posted July 6, 2005 Hello, Zac did you Flash to BIOS 510-2/510-2FIX? You must do that as the older BIOSes do not fully support your CPU core. Get bios here. http://indabasement.com/DFINF4/bios/510-2FIX.zip HOW TO FLASH THE BIOS Download this run it to make a RAMDRIVE boot disk. http://www.nerdlabs.org/bootdisks/diskimages/wboot98se.exe Then get a 2nd disk - Copy everything in the BIOS zip to it (Extract the files) - eg, copy awdflash.exe and 510-2FIX.bin to it - Boot from the RAMDRIVE DISK - Start computer without cdrom support. - Once it has loaded insert the 2nd disk. Type copy a:*.* c: Press enter Type c: Press enter Type awdflash 510-2FIX.bin /f /sn Press enter It should flash the BIOS. - Then you must turn the PC off - Clear the CMOS using the JBAT jumper, leave it there for 10mins. - Then put it back and when you power the PC enter the BIOS. - Load optimised defaults, save and exit. - Enter the BIOS and go to CMOS reloaded. - For each profile, save the current settings. - Then save and exit. - Now you can enter the BIOS and change the settings. - set memory voltage to 2.8v ====================== If not then flash to it. Some timings for you to try. GENIE section in the bios, DRAM voltage = set to 2.8v GENIE section in the BIOS >DRAM configuration DRAM Frequency Set (MHZ).............200 (DRAM/FSB:1/01) Command per clock (CPC)...............Enabled Cas latency (tCL)............................2 RAS to CAS delay (tRCD).................3 Min RAS active time (tRAS)..............6 Row precharge time (tRP)...............3 Row cycle time (tRC)......................11 Row refresh cycle time(tRFC)..........14 Row to Row delay (tRRD)................3 Write recovery time (tWR)...............2 Write to read delay (tWTR).............1 Read to write delay (tRWT).............1 Refresh period (tREF)......................AUTO Write CAS latency (tWCL)................1 DRAM Bank Interleave......................Enabled DQS Skew Control...........................Decrease Skew DQS Skew Value.............................0 DRAM Drive Strength.......................AUTO DRAM Data Drive Strength...............AUTO Max Async Latency..........................6ns Read Preamble Time.......................5ns Idle Cycle Limit...............................AUTO Dynamic Counter............................Enable R/W Queue Bypass.........................AUTO Bypass Max....................................AUTO 32 Byte Granularity..........................Disable (8 Bursts) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mr.Sharp is....well...pretty sharp,he's helped a lot of ppl here,I wouldn't hesitate to try his advice....or you could wait for AG,who'd probably tell you the same thing,only you might not get all those nifty settings to try out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
