Preliminary testing with geil Pc4200 memory yielded these results:

DDR 568 3-4-4-8 3.0V

verified memtest stable.. I will be tweaking and hopefully be cranking out DDR ~570 2.5-4-4-7.

I have an Epox 4pca3+, 4818 un buffered Sandra benchmarks!

I can get possibly 500MHz @ 6-3-3-2 timings with 2.85

My board doesnt have a 2.8 setting, though 2.85 is actually about 2.81

Are u kidding me, this ram is HORRIBLE worst ram ever and false advertising this ram would barely do 500mhz/250MHz with increased voltage by 2v and looser timings from 2.5 to 3 on my ABIT IC7 and 2.4C

its only 6800 some buffered, but it says 4818 when i turn off 'buffering' in options, im not sure if thats how your supposed to do it.

BTW, this ram is f*cking AWESOME! I got it to 292MHz @ 3.35v 7-4-4-2.5

Nah, you probably didn't turn off all the buffering options. ;)

Also, a very newbie question, but how do I take a screenshot and then get it hosted?


I turned off every option in 'Options' and now get 3415.

Hi.
How do you get the voltage to go above 3 ? Even 3,3 ??? My Asus P4P800 Deluxe only goes to 2,85 ???

Yeah, but for every 1 good stick there are 4 counter bad sticks. I will refer you to my sig, second set after rma, and still will not run to spec.

But I will say that it seems that Geil mem seems to operate when you can send 3.0+ through them, but on the other hadn what mem doesn't (see q149's scores using pc2700 with vdimm mod, 6800+ sandra). The only saving grace for Geil is that their warranty covers such voltages.
