WPDusteR Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 NF7-S V.2.0 400 Sapphire 9600pro 128mb XP 2600 333 DDR Corsair 2*256 cmx256a-3200LLPT real happy with my corsair, do not want to change anybios settings thats gunna melt summuts, wot voltage should i have going to my Ram?. should i alter the Ram timings in bios from speed to aggressive?. was wandering if i can slap a stick of 512 in (as i only have 3 dimms) or would i be losing benefits of DUAL????? and get no real gain for my money?. and could u advise on what would be compatible with what i have, i just wanna find all the options that are available to me. thx for ya time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyKid Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Welcome to the forums, [WP]DusteR! Alrighty... NF7-S, I'd set the timings to "MANUAL" and enter them in as: CAS - 2 RAS to CAS Delay - 3 RAS Precharge - 2 Cycle Time - 6 DDR Voltage - 2.7x As for adding another 512Mb's, I'd buy a single CMX512-3200LL module and put it in DIMM slot 3 with the two 256Mb modules in DIMMs 1 & 2. This'll give each memory controller 512Mb's to use and you'll still have Dual-Channel enabled! However, if you added this third stick, I'd set the timings to: CAS - 2.5 RAS to CAD Delay - 3 RAS Precharge - 3 Cycle Time - 6 DDR Voltage - 2.7x PLUR CK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted April 21, 2004 Corsair Employee Share Posted April 21, 2004 No, with AMD platform, you would need to be running a 200 MHz CPU with AMD platform to run DDR400 memory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted May 19, 2004 Corsair Employee Share Posted May 19, 2004 I would really suggest you get the LL version, as they would be faster. However, C2 would run in this MB just not as fast as our Low latency! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted August 3, 2004 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 3, 2004 Please try and set the timings manually to Cass 2-3-2-6 with the Rass to Cass set to "3" and set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts and then run [url]www.memtest86.com[/url] to be sure it's stable!
