flyboy Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 New in box Asus P4C800-E with P4 2.8E, Zalman 400W PS, Zalman 7000A-CU cooler, Twinx1024-3200XLPRO Corsair Memory. Label on front of chip reads:CMX512-3200XLPRO XMS3208v1.1 Did I make a bobo with this memory purchase? Should it have been Twinx4400? Just trying to get best M/B - Memory teamed up. Need help with this as boxes have not been opened yet and if I need to do something different would need to do so soon. Also anyone know what v1.1 means in XMS3208v1.1? Many thanks for your comments.

YoueatLard Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Twinx1024-3200XLPRO is two CMX512-3200XLPRO XMS3208v1.1 modules that are pretested to insure they will play nice when run in dual channel together as seen [URL=http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair/products/specs/twinx1024-3200xl.pdf]here[/URL] The V1.1 is used to tell what type of chips the DIMM has on it.

AusTerro Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 the XL stuff will be fine. its rated to DDR400. So thats all good. If you are going to be running an insane FSB you might need to use a ram divider. but the XL stuff is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthonyl Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 I beg to differ..(well on my Abit AI7 board anyhow). Run the memory at stock timongs / stock clocks and all is fine....try and o/c and your buggered. Dosnlt like anything about 220. BSOD's / Lock ups / ...return to stock and all is fine. Im selling / returning my Corsair XL PRO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AusTerro Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 well you ARE paying for 3200 not 4400, so you are running over spec. But there are many many reasons that might contribute to running the ram faster. what you have tried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What have you tried on the latencies? Just curious, it would be sad to replace the RAM only to find out it wasn't the limiting factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
