zx-ice Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 All, I've got a DFI Ultra-D with 2xmatched CMX512 sticks of RAM and an A64 3500 Winchester. I have had no success running 1:1 at anything above 220 on this set up. I have tried to run at 220 x 6 (and less). The processor will run at 2.9Ghz without any problems at all using a divider. My mem settings are 3-4-4-8. Anyone with a similiar spec. or any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 2, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 2, 2005 I am sorry but that is normal and a limitation of this platform. You can try and set the timings to Cas 3-3-3-8 at 2.8 Volts and see if you get better performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx-ice Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 By platform do you mean that this memory just won't work on this board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 2, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 2, 2005 ?? The memory works but with limitations and it does not matter what memory you use, its just a limitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx-ice Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Sorry RAM GUY. Are you saying that the DDR500 RAM that I bought for £££'s is only go to run at the same speeds or less than generic rubbish RAM? I.e less than the stated 500Mhz?? If so, it's moneyback time ! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 2, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 2, 2005 I am saying this is a limitation with the MB and CPU you have, maybe not the best choice of hardware. If the reselle will let you I wouold suggest one CMX1024-3200C2 for best performance with this MB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
