Memory analyzer

itshondo · Dec 17, 2004

I ran into this rather extensive freeware app that tests & IDs your memory. It also shows good info on chipsets. Its called RightMark Memory Analyzer - I downloaded it from Major Geeks here -

They also have a CPU bench if i'm not mistaken. Thanks for the link, i'll check it out.

pretty cool app.....

a couple of screenies..

This program is somehow connected to this Russian site (or general geographic area) and at this site there are numerous articles on its use, as well as it is used in their hardware reviews. I've been visiting this site for a while and while sometimes there are rough spots in the English, in general there are very interesting and informative reviews found there, with just a little different perspective on things.

Thanks man.
Nice find! Do you know what the other settings mean?

Did you try the CPU RM benchmarking module?

itshondo · Dec 18, 2004

ya got me hangin' - I have no idea what some of this stuff is, but somebody here will figure it out.

Reefa:
Thanks for the pm. Very interesting info on the Russian site.
Did you hear about the DDR Maximiser being developed at xtremesystems? Unfortunately a thread here has become a flame-fest. No real inputs.

Actually, I read one of the earlier threads over at Xtreme a while back so I was aware of it and had been trying to keep an eye out for a while then forgot about it until it just resurfaced.

I've posted in that "flame-fest" trying to encourage guys to not make it a personal thing but I think I was ignored.

The irony is that tempers are heating up and everyone is getting worked up and all along the only ones keeping their cool are hipro5 and OCZ.

Yeah, I stepped away from that thread. I think the mods should do a little "cleaning" if the members don't do it themselves.

So will any of the info that Right Mark gives, that CPUID, etc. don't already list, be useful to us? I don't even know what half that stuff is. Is there an FAQ explaining what some of that info pertains to?

Super Nade · Dec 18, 2004

I'm not surprised you were ignored. The guys was flaming everybody. I'm not posting there anymore. Waste of my time.

Moving on:
A lot of guys with the asus A8V are reporting problems with 2-x-x-x memory. I always thought A64's liked tight timings and low latencies. Is this a board specific thing or is it an A64 issue? One of the members posted a recommendation by theRAMGuy who asked him to change CAS from 2 to 2.5.
What do you think about this?

Sucka · Dec 18, 2004

Show my CPU multi as 14-16, yet that's not an option on the D0's. Doh!

SteveOCZ · Dec 18, 2004

Cool little App

There are a series of articles at that site that I linked to above in the "Platform" section that describe this software's features and there are probably many answers in there. I think the last one listed (and linked) is probably the best place to start. I just haven't gotten around to reading them all, I've just scanned a few here and there. They are not "lite" reading from what I remember. Here is a new link to that section, as well as a copy of the index that lists those articles.

SteveOCZ, any ideas on what those terms mean?
Maybe a quice summary would help out.
Yep. As Reefa said, it's no "lite" read

Sucka:
Reads my multis correctly.

BTW* Deleted all my posts in the Maximizer thread....

flapperhead · Dec 18, 2004

Same with me the afore mentioned thread has turned into a food fight. i aint going there anymore.. anyway this software is really cool , soon as i get a chance im gonna try to figure it all out...

RangerXLT8 · Dec 18, 2004

You can change your mem timings in real-time with this, but god knows i'm not gonna mess with that, I'do it in the bios.

Sucka · Dec 18, 2004

Here's a screenshot of the multi, wonder why it reads that if i can't change it :bang head

Mine is a D0, so it does not have multi options like some of the C0's.

That last link has a glossory of sorts, doesn't it?

I'm going to print it out, as well as a couple of the other articles and see what comes of it. I've intended to do that for a while now so this is as good as time as any. With everyone pitching in we ought to be able to get a pretty good idea of how it works and what its good for, if anything.

There have been several versions so note wihich version is being discussed when you are going through one of the articles.
