jkilla74 Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Ram Guy, Can I buy two 1 Gig matched PC3200 sticks(2 BG Total) and run them at 400 Mhz with my current set-up? If so what corsair sticks should I buy. I know I previously asked about adding a 3rd stick but then I would have to go down to 333 Mhz.. I want to stay at 400 but I want more memory..

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted May 24, 2005 Yes but you would need to remove the memory you currantly have installed. And the part# would be Twinx2048-3200C2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted May 24, 2005 I would suggest you set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts and you can follow the link in my signature for the exact tested settings but I would set them to Cass 2.5-3-3-6 at 2.7 Volts.

jkilla74 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 RamGuy, Thanks for all your help again. Just to make sure, is this the memory we are talking about? Twinx 2048 Ram Thanks Again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted May 24, 2005 No that is not what I had suggested but they will work with this MB, but at a slower timings of Cass 3-3-3-8. And unless you have a window in your case you dont need the Pro Version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt see them on that sight though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt see them on that sight though.... How about this ram, a little more expensive though.... Is this the ram that can be ran at tighter timings at 400Mhz? Ram Or this one from New Egg?New Egg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted May 24, 2005 No that MB will not support registered ECC memory. This is the part I had suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkilla74 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 Thanks, I will order those right away, I just dont understand why they are cheaper when they're better than the other ones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 TWINX2048-3200C2 - $260 TWINX2048-3200PRO - $297 Simple. The more expensive ones have the lights on them. Just as a comparison: TWINX2048-3200 - $259 TWINX2048-3200PT - $259 TWINX2048-3200C2PT - $262 PT means PLATINUM heat spreaders (no, they're only that color for looks, no performance difference) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkilla74 Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 Ok now I have the X2 dual processor A64 4400 chip with a MSI Neo Platinum 2 boards.... Everything is running great but I think it has the wrong ram settings.. I have it in dual channel mode... WHat should I set everything at.. There were 5 Ram settings in the bios. It was set on 2T timing. 3-7-7-17 or something like that... The ram I have is TWINX2048-3200PRO TWINX2048-3200C2 - $260 TWINX2048-3200PRO - $297 Simple. The more expensive ones have the lights on them.
