gcordova Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Sorry, I think, I don't understand :confused: , but how do get the timing 3-4-3-9 2T to show up in the bios? Can you shed some light on this. thank for your patients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 25, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 25, 2006 Please look in section 4.4.1 for the JumperFree configuration for the memory Voltage and then in Performance Options to set the memory timings!

gcordova Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I look at section 4.4.1 and get into my bios and change those settings however, I still see only 400MHz as frequency, here is what CPU-Z reports: Frequency = 400MHz FSB:DRAM = 2:3 Cas# Latency = 3.0 clocks Ras# to Cas# Delay = 4 clocks RAS# Precharge = 3 clocks Cycle Time (Tras) = 9 clocks Bank Cycle Time (Trc) = 5 clocks What am I doing wrong? Help please. I want to run at 800MHz 3-4-3-9. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 26, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 26, 2006 You are running the memory at DDR2-800! DDR2 Memory runs at: DDR2-533 = 266 Clock Frequency 2 X 266 = DDR2 533 DDR2-667 = 333 Clock Frequency 2 X 333 = DDR2 667 DDR2-800 = 400 Clock Frequency 2 X 400 = DDR2 800 DDR2-1066 = 533Clock Frequency 2 X 533 = DDR2 1066 Intel CPU: 533 MHz = 133 MHz Clock Freq. 133 X 4 800 MHz = 200 MHz Clock Freq. 200 X 4 1066 MHz = 266 MHz Clock Freq. 266 x 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcordova Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I think I have a problem with the twin2x2048-6400C3. When I have both modules install on this motherboard (P5n32slisedeluxe) and play, any games (ut2007, bf2 or quake4) the computer freezes after about few minutes. This happens to me all the times, regardless what I do. Here is what I have done so far Set the bios to the default settings, so everything is set to the manufacture default with twin2x2048-6400C3 install. Then, I swap the memory around; put them on different slots (in dual channel A2 & B2 or A1 & B1) the same problems happen. I have two modules of *** 1G at 667MHz, so I decided to put them in instead of the Corsair memory. I can play all my games with no the computer freezing up, slow but, no freezing. I also notice once I turn on my computer (with corsair memory) it might not post. I have to cycle the power a few time before it does a post and finally into windows. I download the program memtest and ran the Std test overnight for 7 hours with no errors reported, however when I run the program 3dmark06 with corsair memory, my computer freezes up while the 3dmark06 test is at "Deep Freeze" test, but with the *** memory it does not freeze my computer at all it completes the 3dmark06 test, plus when I turn on the system with *** memory the always post and goes into windows everytime. I think I have bad corsair memory modules. All I have in my computer is CPU=x6800 xfx 7950GX2 Corsair memory Antec trio 650W Antec case P180 Any suggestions?

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 27, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 27, 2006 What do you have the memory frequency and voltage set to? And are you over clocking the CPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcordova Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I try the bios default on everything and the second setting. Bios 0501 Bios default (CPU-Z reports 5-5-5-18-22-auto) memory frequency = 800MHz |Cpu-z reports - 400MHz|- dualchannel memory volt = 1.85v I am not OC'ing the CPU Second settings (3-4-3-9-2T) memory freq - 800MHz |cpu-z reports - 400MHz|- dualchannel memory volt - 2.2v I am not OC'ing the CPU I went ahead and install the twin2x2048-6400C3 in single channel configuration and I was able to fully run the 3dmark06 but I still have post problems, had to recycle the power multible times for the computer to come alive. However the other memory modules(other manufactor 2x512M/DDR2-667MHz) has no problems booting, running 3dmark06 or playing my games without freezing.

Wolvie Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 My Mobo of course is the Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe. I chose my pieces with much care. This is the first system I intended to overclock. I wanted memory rated faster than the stock to allow the head room of where I wanted to go! I bought 2 pair of matched XMS2 DDR2 memory. Specifically I bought CM2X1024-6400 1GB sticks 800MHz. With all 4 sticks plugged in, the system would post perhaps two times then hange prior to launch of X64 Windows. Dropping to 1 stick, it would post and log into windows then hang after a few minutes. I managed to flash the Bios to 0402... not much improvment. After reading a lot of the info here and some of the memory presentations... I manually set the one stick memory settings to 5-5-5-12-A-2T The A being Auto as there was no setting described here So... CAS Latency set to 5 tRCD set to 5 tRP set to 5 tRAS set to 12 tRC was left in Auto Variables can be set from 1 to 31 Address mode set to 2T Memory voltage was changed from 1.85 to 1.90 The above increased my stability for the one stick - 24 hours and no issues... but as soon as I plug in any of the other sticks... It hangs in post. I know the board will run one stick... I have tried two sticks in single mode and two sticks in DDR mode... niether seem to work. Any suggestions? oh yes... Processor is a Intel 965 D Extreme. 550W power supply and the system is watercooled. Thanks for any assistance.:eek: Wolvie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 28, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 28, 2006 Please make sure that you have the latest bios version for P5N32-SLI D SE. Then load setup defaults and set the memory Frequency at DDR2-667 amd set the memory Voltage to 2.1 Volts and set the timings to Cas 5-5-5-15 and see if the system will post with all 4 installed.

Wolvie Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Thanks. I saw your recommendation to use the beta Bios before... my problem with that is there is no description of what the BIOS was suppose to do. None the less, since you directly suggested it.... Done. Settings applied... Done and voltage selection moved to 2.1 and Done The results... It has booted and gone into Windows and not hung for the very first time with all 4 sticks in!

Kuipo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Hi, I have an Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe and am also using the TWIN2X2048-6400C4's to no avail. I have tried all the manual settings that have been said on this thread (4-4-4-12-2T @ 2.0v, 2.1v, and at auto) and have had the same problems almost everyone else is having (the computer shuts down when either playing a game or RAR'ing a large amount of data). I found that my easiest way to make the computer hang is to try to rar about 1.5GB of files. With this method I can reliably get the computer to crash in about 10~15 min's. When I had my settings on auto I tried to run the memory test and got 1 and a half full passes with no errors, but it still crashes in Windows when doing my 'rar test'. I figured the ram must not be compatible at all so I purchased some TWIN2X2048-6400's. Unfortunately these sticks seem to give me the same issue. :(: I did at one point take out one of the sticks and ran 1x6400C4 in slot B1 as the ASUS rep suggested and it ran fine for a long time (2 days+). I ran the same test with the other stick with no problems. But I bought 2GB's of ram to use all 2GB, not to just have one to look at. :p: If you could help me with my problem RAM Guy I'd be so grateful. PS. I have tried taking almost everything out of the computer (sound card and network card and 3 of my 4 HDD's) to cut down on power use and that didn't help. I tried disabling on-board stuff to free up any resource I could and that didn't work. I'm at my wit's end with this! Please Help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuipo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Sounds like your memory controller in your CPU is busted. Really? That could be the issue? Hmm. So that would mean I would need to return the motherboard then huh? I appreciate your quick response. Last night I actually had it do a hard lock with only 1 stick in the B1 slot. I'll give ASUS a call today then. Thanks again for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuipo Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 The CPU might be causing this issue? How would one part of the CPU go out but still work enough to run most of the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 couple million transistors, 1 goes bad, won't blow up the whole thing unless that specific transistor is hit. Ultimately, if it can run single channel just fine, but not dual channel, and this is with two different pairs, it's the memory controller.

Kuipo Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 But as I said, I had it go bad with 1 stick as well the other night. Could it still be somthing with the CPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 it could be the slot it's in, but that's easy to test. Yes, it still coule be the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreddyQ Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Sorry for my noobnis, but check my system specs.. Will I have to overclock the CPU as well as set the memory timings to get this memory to work? Or do I just have to mess around with the memory timing.. I think 4-4-4-12-2t 2.0v to get this setup to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
