theAntipop Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Hi, I have a matched set of TwinX 1GB (2x512mb) sticks (part number XMS3205v1.2). I've never had any problems with the sticks in the few months I've had them. But after playing World of Warcraft I started getting a large amount of memory address errors. After running Memtest86 to see if the problem was with the game or the hardware, I received over 10,000 errors in a single run. I tried the sticks in different configurations and came to the conclusion that only one of the sticks was giving me errors. With just the good stick in I do not have any problems. For these tests I reverted my system back to completely stock speeds. Details of my system are below. Shuttle SN41G2v2 Nforce 2 IGP AMD Athlon XP-Mobile 2600+ ATI Radeon 9800 Pro AIW NEC 3500A DVD+/-RW Right now I am running with the single good stick with the processor at 2.3ghz (200mhz FSB x 11.5 multi) and both WoW and Memtest do not report errors. If an RMA is in order, what is your policy on cross-shipping? Because without this memory I have no backup in order to run my machine. Thanks!

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 29, 2004 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 29, 2004 I would try and lower the CPU multiplier to 9 or 10 and test the other module with the Dim Voltage set to 2.7 Volts to make sure its not the CPU. And you will be able to OC your CPU higher with one module than you would with both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theAntipop Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 I tried with the other module at 133 FSB on a 9x multiplier with 2.7v Dim voltage and that still showed a number of errors in a Memtest run. To clarify, the second stick will not pass Memtest (or play World of Warcraft) even when the CPU is UNDERclocked at default front side bus and relaxed RAM timings.
