ChrisSal Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I need to know how to set the Dominator 2X2G DDR2 8500C5 to work at the correct settings and speed for this motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekT Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 You need to overclock to reach 1066Mhz on the DRAM for that motherboard. Please enter Here and document your hardware components. As well, please create a template of your BIOS settings. Use this template and add any additional settings your board has and delete any it does not have. JumperFree Configuration Settings Ai Overclocking = CPU Ratio = Ratio CMOS Setting = FSB Frequency = PCI-E Frequency = DRAM Frequency = DRAM Timing Control = CAS = RAS# to CAS# = RAS to Precharge = RAS Active Time = TWR= TRFC = TWTR = TRRD = TRTP = DRAM Static Read Control = DRAM Dynamic Write Control = Transaction Booster = CPU Spread Spectrum = PCIE Spread Spectrum = CPU Voltage = CPU Voltage Reference = CPU Voltage Damper = DRAM Voltage = FSB Termination Voltage = North Bridge Voltage = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSal Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 I am well aware that I have to OC the memory. Beyond that I know nothing about the new BIOS interface these motherboards use now. This is part of a new build I am doing and I have no idea what to do in the BIOS since the manual is rather useless. Where do I even go to get all that information in the BIOS?

ChrisSal Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 Found the info and took a picture. Here ya go. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j168/Killmur/IMG_0198.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekT Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 You need to find a spot that allows you to change the DRAM speed DRAM Frequency = and DRAM Voltage DRAM Voltage = . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSal Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 I already know of those 2. However I don't think this motherboard supports 1066(OC) like ASUS says since there is only 667/800/1K/1111. I think alot of the information ASUS has is incorrect since from what I am reading there SHOULD be a 533 option. Edit: Now that I think about it this mobo supports ONLY memory not by the X2 format that I keep seeing but by a full format. Which would make sense as to why I didn't see 533 in the BIOS. If this is the case then ASUS must of tested memory at 1066 with a beta BIOS that has not been released yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSal Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Okay I got it all figured out HOWEVER this motherboard does NOT support 1066 as ASUS has stated. It supports only memory at 667, 800, 1K and 1111. I will have to clearly run the memory at 800 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
