-=The DRAM Stable Settings Thread=-
Folks,
We often see many of us new to a particular type of memory, spend loads of time getting them to run stable at optimal settings. Sucka and I have decided to put together a database, comprising solely of the results obtained by our members. While many such databases exist, more numbers are always welcome. Our database would offer the additional convenience of sorting results by manufacturers and the chips their modules are comprised of.
In a significant departure from other databases, we would like you to post ALL your stable timings, at reasonably overclocked frequencies. It is quite clear that one set of modules have various points of stability at a single frequency. This could result in compromising Bandwidth at the expense of stability etc. We would like to hear about your experience in such matters and hence, actively seek your comments. The rationale behind this is to offer people a variety of options. Quite often, copying somebody else's settings won't work. However, these is a greater probability of hitting the jackpot with many settings to choose from! I will post your best results in the database for compactness. The link will carry over to your log/settings thread.
Treat this like a personal testing logbook.
Peliminary assesment and preperation:
Before you start off tweaking your RAM, I would strongly recommend throughly reading these guides by Sucka and hitechjb1.
TCCD v/s UTT results and analysis
DDR600 Stability with the NF4
Overclocking sandbox for A64 939 systems with Winchester and beyond
What we need from you:
Motherboard and CPU:
DRAM Make, Model and Chips:
Timing tables and Comments: <Feel free to post multiple tables, DO NOT edit them once posted. Make a new table and add a comment for each change you make>
