Memory qustion: Corisar 3200XL and DFI nF4 SLI-D


Recommended Posts

Finally I decided to go for a new ram. I’m just tired with this hynix crap that I have at the moment. So before I buy anything I just want to make sure that this ram doesn’t have any problems with DFI nF4 SLI-D motherboard.

 

The ram I was thinking of (there isn’t much different ram to choose from where I live): DDRAM 512MB DIMM 400MHz PC3200XL CL2.0 DDR Corsair (2-2-2-5) XMS3208v1.2 0527140-0.

 

It should be Samsung TCCD (not 100% sure).

 

So anyone who knows anything about how this ram works on DFI nF4 motherboard and how well it would OC (I’m not looking for extreme OC) please post.

 

Thanks

Literally hundreds of posts in here> pointing away from Corsair memory in general and you want us to tell you that some model of Corsair will have an 'excellent' chance to work? Man oh man!

No, there are many others, if you look carefully through this forum you will find many. It's just that Corsair RAM is known well to not be great with overclocking with the DFI Nforce 4 series motherboards.

From my personal experience, I have found Mushkin does very well with the newer DFI boards. In fact I have some Mushkin Green in an old NF2 board that I stuck in my sli-dr and with everything in auto it performed better (benchmarks anyway) than my OCZ Platinum that I'd been teaking on for weeks,.... go figure????

@ivanvt:

 

Then you be 1 out of 50(?) who had luck. :rolleyes:

 

I've sent in my pair of 4400C25 and they lost it somewhere at US customs - a blessing in disguise, since I can now buy cheap and good 2-2-2-5 OCZ Gold BH5 from the insurance. :nod:
