zlaja1 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I have a bfg 680i sli board, bfg 8800gtx card and corsair xms2 Twin2X2048-8500c5 memory I am to confused on the setings for the memory and cpu . Here are a couple of pics of the different options that are in the bios. What should i have the memory set to if i have the cpu set at..... and so on. I would like it to run stable at 3.2 which i have read is not a problem but i am not able to get it quite there yet. Any hints or tips are very welcome. Oh, i am runnig stock cooling still.

DerekT Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Download Memtest86+ V2.01 from--->Here Download CPU-z from Here Enter your System BIOS Setup Utility, load default settings, save default settings and set to these values: [b]System Clocks[/b] SLI-Ready Memory = Disable CPU Freq. MHz = 355 CPU Muliplier = 9 FSB - Memory Clock Mode = Unlinked FSB (QDR), MHz = 1420 MEM (DDR), MHz = 1066 PCIEX16_1 Frequency (Mhz) = 101 PCIEX16_2 Frequency (Mhz) = 101 PCIEX16_3 Frequency (Mhz) = 101 SPP<->MCP Ref Clock, Mhz =: 201 HT Multiplier nForce SPB --> nForce MCP = 5X nForce SPP <-- nForce MCP = 5X HTT Spread Spectrum = Disabled PCIe Spread Spectrum (SPP) = Disabled PCIe Spread Spectrum (MCP) = Disabled SATA Spread Spectrum = Disabled [b]Memory Timing Setting[/b] tCL (Cas Latency) = 5 tRCD = 5 tRP = 5 tRAS = 15 Command Per Clock (CMD) = 2T [b]Advanced Memory Settings[/b] tRRD = Auto tRC = Auto tWR = Auto tWTR = Auto tREF = Auto CPU Internal Thermal Control: Enabled Limit CPUID MaxVal: Enabled Enhanced C1 (C1E): Disabled Execute Disable Bit: Enabled Virtualization Technology: Enabled Enhanced Intel Speedstep Tech: Disabled [b]Voltages[/b] CPU Core = Auto CPU FSB = Auto Memory = 2.2v (for version 1.xx) or 2.1 (for version 2.xx) nForce SPP = Auto nForce MCP = 1.45v HT Nforce SPP <-> MCP = 1.55v This should give you 3.2Ghz and 1066Mhz on the DRAM. Run Memtest for two full passes. When assured of stable DRAM, then enter Windows and Run Prime95 for ~2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
