syadasti Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 I am running a Intel BadAxe motherboard with a 2.13 C2D CPU and: Corsair Twin2X2048-6400 Each module says 5-5-5-12 800MHz 1024MB XMS2-6400 I am going to underclock my ram to 345.5 MHz (but run the FSB higher than stock so thats 691 MHz at the DDR2 memory rate) What settings should I use if i am running my ram at 691 MHz instead of 800 X-X-X-X @ what voltage? Right now I am running really slow settings (691 MHz , 345.5@5-5-5-13 if I remember right from BIOS - thats what CPU-Z says too) and everything is great but I assume I can go faster since I am running below 800 MHz or should I stick with rated 5-5-5-12 - what voltage besides auto in BIOS? Thanks!

But there is no way to know as that has not be predefined!

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 22, 2006 Corsair Employee Posted September 22, 2006 I would set the Voltage to 2.1 Volts with this MB!
