Dkzon Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Hello: Here are my BIOS settings for my ASUS P5KPL/1600: Configure System Frequency/Voltage * AI Overclocking = Manual * CPU Frequency = 333 * DRAM Frequency = 800MHz (can't select 1066Mhz because on the bios the options goes from 800Mhz, 1000Mhz, 1100Mhz) * PCI Express Frequency = 100 * Memory Voltage = 2.1v * CPU Core Voltage = Auto * MCH Chipset Voltage = 1.4v (that's the max) Advanced Chipset Settings * Configure DRAM by SPD = Disabled * DRAM CAS# Latency = 5 * DRAM RAS# Prechardge = 5 * DRAM RAs# to CAS# Delay = 5 * DRAM RAS# Activate to Precharge: 15 By the way, cant change Command rate to 2t on my bios because there isnt such option. My bios is updated. Can someone let me know if my BIOS and POST is correct? Because i keep getting bsod's... Thanks very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted July 22, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted July 22, 2009 I would try and lower the MCH Voltage and set the memory Voltage to 2.0 Volts and move the modules to the other two slots and leave the timings at Auto and test it with http://www.memtest.org.

Dkzon Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 I would try and lower the MCH Voltage and set the memory Voltage to 2.0 Volts and move the modules to the other tow slots and leave the timings at Auto and test it with http://www.memtest.org. No sucess so far, setted mch -.1 and my memory voltage to 2.0, and at first minutes of memtest (last version) had a couple of errors going by the screen, quitted as soon as it hitted 1k... Edit: And yeah setted the spd enabled and moved the modules to the black slots... Edit²: I just noticed that in the mem's box it says "TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF" but at the module parts the tag says "CM2X2048-8500C5D". Is it alright o.O?

Dkzon Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Oh yeah, forgot to say that i dont care if it run lower then 1066 or 800, all i want is being able to run 4 gb's at dual channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dkzon Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Done... but do you think that it is a ram problem? I thought the problem was with the compatibility with my MB. Oh well, do you know if it take long for a RMA from brazil (that's where i am from) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted July 23, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted July 23, 2009 The average is about 10-15 Days for international shipments and Have you tested the modules one at a time with the tested settings manually set with http://www.memtest.org? If you have and do not get any errors then doing an RMA may not solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkzon Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yes, and i got no problem's with the modules separated... That's why i am saying that the RMA isnt really a good idea. Do you got any other idea for my bios config? :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted July 23, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted July 23, 2009 You MB does not support DDR1066 this is from the spec page. 4 x240-pin DIMM, Max. 4 GB, DDR2 800/667 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory I would try and install the modules and Load setup defaults and then set the memory Voltage to 2.0 Volts and exit the BIOS and see if its more stable then post a screen shot of the memory Tab in CPU-Z and lets see if that will make the system stable.

Dkzon Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Setted everything on default and plugged both modules on the black slot and setted the memory to 2.0, tried to get a screen shot from the memory tabs at the cpu-z but i got bsod on the first minute at windows lol...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted July 24, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted July 24, 2009 Sorry about that but will it run and pass http://www.memtest.org? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkzon Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 i does run, but doesn't i get like 4k errors or more with both modules at the config you told me to use in about 3 pass's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkzon Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hey i got news!! I setted the bios to: Configure System Frequency/Voltage * AI Overclocking = Manual * CPU Frequency = 333 * DRAM Frequency = 800MHz (can't select 1066Mhz because on the bios the options goes from 800Mhz, 1000Mhz, 1100Mhz) * Memory Voltage = 2.0v * CPU Core Voltage = Auto * MCH Chipset Voltage = 1.25v (that's the lower) Advanced Chipset Settings * Configure DRAM by SPD = Disabled * DRAM CAS# Latency = 5 * DRAM RAS# Prechardge = 5 * DRAM RAs# to CAS# Delay = 5 * DRAM RAS# Activate to Precharge: 15 And ran the memtest. The first memory ran for 2 hours without error. The second memory had error on the first 20 seconds of test! (arround 1k) So i guess yeah i will need a RMA for this one, but i have a question, can i ask RMA for only one module (the screwed up one)? Other wise i wont be able to use my pc till the new module's arrives, and i cant afford buying a new one for now, you have no idea on how expesinve those things are here on brazil... I paid arround R$467,00 wich is 230,00 dollars or so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
