Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted August 14, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 14, 2009 With 4 modules I would suggest setting the memory frequency at DDR667 and set the memory Voltage to 2.0 Volts and set the NB/MCH/SPP Voltage to +.2 Volts as well and test the system with http://www.memtest.org. In addition, with some MB's (Mostly ASUS) you have to disable legacy USB in the bios when running any memory test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted August 14, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 14, 2009 You would increase the Voltage 2 tenths of a volt; IE if the default is 1.2 Volts you would set it to 1.4 Volts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 14, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 14, 2009 Did you set the memory frequency to DDR667, and did you test the modules one at a time with http://www.memtest.org to be sure one was not failing? What were the exact settings you had set for both CPU and memory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
