Which is more reliable?
The reason I ask. I have 2x512 sticks of TwinMOS 3200 CH-5, which I appear to be struggling to take higher than 205Mhz.
CPU & chipset appear Prime stable (up to 215FSB, with memory lowered to 85% to rule it out).
If I put the memory to 100%, Prime will bail in less than 5 minutes.
Same result if I dropped the FSB down and increased memory to 125%.
However, if I run Memtest at 210FSB, it runs all tests perfect for over an hour before I stop it. Prime will crash out in under 5 minutes (using blend test).
Timings are 11-3-2-2.5, seems to need 2.9v to hit 210 stable in Memtest.
Specs :
Epox 8RDA3+ rev 1.1
XP-M 2500 @2.4Ghz
1Gb TwinMOS 3200
Radeon9800 PRO
