deftengnr Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Someone please help me. this is the memory I am using here I cant seem to get a solid run in memtest86+ v1.70 for the life of me. I set the timings to 4-4-4-12 @ 2.1v and get errors in test 5 & 6. I tried loosening the timings 5-5-5-15, raising the voltage to 2.12 that seemed to stall the errors for an hour, I have tried raising the NB voltage a little and had no effect. My mobo seems to overvolt the ram by like .04v so setting the dram voltage to 2.06 actually reads 2.114 in bios. I have set the dram voltage to 2.1 & 2.06, but w/out avail. Thing is when I run memtest with both sticks in dual channel I get 2-3 errors in 1-2 passes, but when I run both in single channel I only get 1 error. When I run memtest with one stick I don't get any errors within an hour or so. But I did get some errors when I ran it for 10 hrs on one stick. Have not yet ran the other stick that long. Window seems stable, have not had any issues in that area. plays games fine ran prime95 for 10hrs w/out any errors. sorry if I seem short. I have just been trying to get my $1000 investment rock solid and working properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted January 29, 2008 Corsair Employee Share Posted January 29, 2008 When you ran http://www.memtest.org did you have legacy USB Disabled in the BIOS? If not please try and disable it and I would look for the setting called "TRC" and set it to "15" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deftengnr Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Yes it was disabled. It turns out that I had 1 bad stick, but errors only appear after like 6 hours of testing. Ran each stick for 10 hrs roughly 80 passes and only 1 came up with errors. same settings and slot was used for both. I will just rma it w/newegg. Again sorry for the ranting, had a bad day and was getting annoyed with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
