twinx3200xl pro module timings with gigabyte k8vnxp

Recommended Posts

i have purchased today corsair twinx 1024xl 3200 pro modules.

i have seeen different treads concerning these modules and different failure on clock settings with different MoBo.

This afternoon i will install these module on my motherboard ( Gigabyte K8vnxp equipped with athlon 64 3200 Bios F10).

i would like to know the correct ( failsafe) clock settings for this motherboard.

 

 

Regards

With this MB the modules should be in slots 1-3 and I would suggest you set the Rass to Cass to "3" so I would set these timings and then set the Dim Voltage to +.2 Volts:

CAS Latency CL=2.0

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 5

Row Precharge Time tRP 2

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 Disabled

Then test the system with http://www.memtest.org and make sure it's stable! If you have problems, I would set Enable 2T Timings to AUTO and test it again!

i have set cas latency=2

trcd =2 or 3 ( as suggested by ram Guy)

tRas = 5

rtP=2

without overvoltage dim setting = auto

 

with memtest at test 5 there are errors in 4 pass

 

with an overvoltage of +0.1

 

no errors in all tests

 

an overvoltage seems work fine

 

i would like to know if this overvoltage could damage the dimms

 

with pcwizard

memories show:

the voltage show 2.5 volts with or without overvoltage is a bug?

where can i see the real voltage of my dimms

All DDR modules would be by JEDEC Spec for DDR400 2.65 Volts + or - 1.0 Volts. And this module has a minumum suggested s voltage of 2.75 Volts. And all of our DDR modules are rated up to 2.9 Volts so there should be no problems, or we will be happy to replace them.

Please see XMS Qualification and Testing.
