260Mhz on a PC3200 ?

[elmancho]

Hello there, I have a p4p800e deluxe asus MB , when long into the bios , choose "jumper free config'' and over clock the CPU @ 20% ( 3,8Ghz and I have adequate cooling) then the memry runs @ ddr266 instead of ddr400, shouldnt it run faster ? I heard that corsair modules were verry overclokable ...

 

Please give me some indicatrion on how to enter the correcy setings thank you !

 

PS the latency has got worse as well...:[pouts:

Corsair sticks are very overclockable. However, due to memory controller loading it's extremely difficult (almost impossible) to overclock four sticks of matching ram (same make, size, model, and version). You're trying to overclock with mismatched pairs of sticks. Most overclockers overclock with only two sticks. I know of no possible settings in the bios you could use to overclock the four sticks your using and I'm surprised they would even run at 266mghz or at all with the overclock your using. Sorry.

Would it be more rewarding (performance wise) to only keep 2*512? Because I dont know if games such as FEAR use 1,5G...

 

thanks

 

PS: just to make shure you said it was impossible even with 4 matching modules right ?

It would be easier with matched vs unmatched, but it's still a big strain on the memory controller.

Ok, well thanks for the advice ;):

I'll put the 2*256 in the bin (sort of say):D:

But I fear that 1G won't be enough for todays games ...

In addition, you will have to set the Memory and CPU frequency manually or the MB Bios will down clock the memory by default when you over clock as well.
