wilson07 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Hi all and thanks for reading my thread. I am trying to set up my ram in my bios and have spent to long searching and getting confused about it all. I have 2 x cm2x1024-6400 and have put the timings of 5.5.5.12 @ clock2 and trc 24 with 1.9v. But what about the memory ratio what should i have it set at sync ,auto,1.1 ,5.3 ,3.2??? and should i have my memory linked or unliked??? I have tried to understand it honest but i guess some of us aint suppost 2 lol. I have my E6600 @ FSB 1333/3.0Ghz and my ram shows up as 800Mhz in Nvidia monitor and 400Mhz in CPU-Z. Any and i mean any help would be great. Thanks Paul. ps all my specs are in my profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted August 21, 2007 Corsair Employees Share Posted August 21, 2007 The memory frequency should be Un-Linked and set to DDR2 800 if its still not working I would start with the memory set to Linked at DDR667 and over clock the CPU slowly testing with http://www.memtest.org and see where it tops out.
