Wired Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 SDRAM CAS Latency: 2.5T SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3T SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 3T SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 8T Here ya go! What CPU / FSB do you have? Have you tried the memory in more than one slot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 1, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 1, 2004 I would use slots 2-4 according to the user manual page 2-12 and set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magimus419 Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 where do I set the Dim voltage also I have tried moving the ram to different slots and still have the same problem. The computer freezes at the same point when trying to load window. My system is as follows AMD 64 3500 Asus A8V Deluxe Rev 2.0 Sony DVD+/- RW VS512MB400-1 Asus V9570 TD 128 WD Raptor 35GB PSU Thermeltake W0019 480watts :bigeyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 2, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 2, 2004 The Dim Voltage will be under Jumper Free Config (Section 4.4.5 in the user manual) and you will need to set the AI Over Clock Tuner to manual and then set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts and I would set the Timings manually as well to whats listed bellow. CAS Latency CL=2.5 Row Cycle Time tRC Bios Default Row Refresh Cyc Time tRFC Bios Default Ras# to CAS# delay tRCD 3 Row to Row delay Bios Default Min Ras# Active Time tRAS 8 Row Precharge Time tRP 3 Write Recovery Time Bios Default Write to Read delay Bios Default Read to Write Delay Bios Default Refresh Period tREF Bios Default Enable 2T Timing enabled Then test the system with http://www.memtest.org and make sure it's stable!

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 3, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 3, 2004 That is the # and you are welcome to give us a call, but I would suggest testing the modules one up and lets be sure it's not just one failing module!

ixoye41 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 A8V Deluxe and TwinX2048RE-3200 Should I worry about any compatibility issues with this combination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 5, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 5, 2004 Yes, ASUS A8V is not compatible with registered memory. You will need to use un-buffered memory with this MB! Sorry. Please see if the reseller will let you swap these for Twinx1024-3200XL instead.

ixoye41 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I haven't purchased the memory yet, I am just doing my research. I am building a system with an AMD FX-55 and and Asus A8V Deluxe. I just wanted to go with the best possible memory for my system. Do you recommend the Twinx1024-3200XL as the best overall selection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 5, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 5, 2004 Yes, that would be what you should get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixoye41 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 OK. Sounds good. Now, I am going to put this matched pair in my blue slots... Do you know of any performance issues if I were to add another matched pair to the black slots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Yes! TwinX are tested as pairs, not quads. You may have to relax the memory timings a bit. Any particular reason why you're looking for 2GB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
