dougfresh Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Im using 2.4 P4 p4p800 E @ twinx 3200xlpro @1gb. I cannot get my MB to go any higher then 333 on Frequency(it deosnt display it). I thought it should be 400. Also what is the optimal settings in the bios. I want to overclock so should I bring these back and get twinx 4000xlpro. I feel like a mouse in a maze looking for the cheese. I'm new at this. Thanx :sunglasse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 There is no such thing as 4000XL Pro. Do you know if you have a 400 Mhz, 533 Mhz, or 800 Mhz FSB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougfresh Posted November 29, 2004 Author Share Posted November 29, 2004 thanx for quick reply. 533 fsb. I meant the TwinX 1.0GB Dual Channel PC-4000 DDR. :laughing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 29, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 29, 2004 This is a chipset limitation. If the FSB of your CPU is 400 For Intel and 100 MHz for AMD, the memory speed supports only DDR 266. If the FSB of your CPU is 533 For Intel and 133/166 MHz for AMD, the memory speed supports DDR 266/333 If the FSB of your CPU is 800 MHz for Intel and 200 MHz for AMD, the memory speed supports DDR 333/400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 No problemo. Well if it's set to be in sync with the CPU then that's why it won't go higher, in addition to what Ram Guy said. There should be a divider option to set the memory:CPU ratio to 5:4 (400:333). If it has that, you may be able to OC that way. Haven't touched a P4 myself though. CAS Latency: 2T RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 2T Row Precharge (tRP): 2T Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 5T Memory Voltage: 2.75 or 2.8v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
