crash187 Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hello all I just finished building my new system and I've had a couple BSoD's and few other errors. So I decided to test my memory using memtest86+ v1.65. Left it running for almost 7 hours. Here is a screenshot I'm using Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PT. One 512 stick in Slot-A1 and Slot-B1 on my A8N-SLI motherboard. Questions: 1) Is the RAM bad? 2) Why is it detected by my motherboard with 3.3.3.8 timings when it says in the description of the RAM that it should be 2.5 3.3.6? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= System Specs: MOBO - A8N-SLI (BIOS 1011 & 30°C) CPU - AMD 64 4000+ San Diego (stock speeds & 28°C) RAM - Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PT (auto detected mobo speed) GPU - XFX GeForce 7800 GT (ForceWare version 81.89 non-WHQL & 38°C) PSU - Ultra X-Finity (2nd Generation) 500 Watt /SLI/Dual 12v Rail(18A/20A)/SATA Ready HS/F - Big Typhoon CASE - Lian-Li PC-65B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 3-3-3-8 are the SPD timings, you have to set them manually to 2-3-3-6. I'm assuming since you haven't done that you also need to manually change the voltage to the correct settings as well, which may have caused those errors. CAS Latency (tCL): 2 RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3 Row Precharge (tRP): 3 Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 6 Memory Voltage: 2.75 Volts All other settings to defaults.

crash187 Posted November 20, 2005 Author Share Posted November 20, 2005 Thank you for you help. Do all of these settings look correct to you? New 2.3.3.6 timings screenshot New voltage @2.75 screenshot Questions: 1) What command rate should it be at? 1T or 2T with 2x512 sticks? 2) Do all of the other settings look correct? Thanks again for you help I appreciate it very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crash187 Posted November 20, 2005 Author Share Posted November 20, 2005 My current setup: 2-3-3-6-1T & DDR Voltage @2.75 According to another thread, you stated that CAS 2.5 is for AthlonXP's only and CAS 2 is for Athlon64s & Intel setups. Everything seems correct now right? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
