This is more than just a memory question, but... whatever.
I got a 512mb stick of OCZ Premier PC3200. It runs stable at 215x10.5, prime tested for a few hours. If I use it with my 2x256 Kingmax also in, I can only do 200x11. My question:
Keep the OCZ by itself, run at 215X10.5, and find a matching stick later? This gives me -100 points in 3dmark2k5, but my CPU score shows 3900. Temps are a toasty 44c idle and 60c load.
Or Keep the whole mismatched gig, and run 200fsb. Gain 100points 3dmark2k5, but CPU score drops to 3200 or so. Temps stay 41c idle 51c load.
I don't know why, but I have to crank the voltages to get even the 215X10.5. I needto run my MOBILE XP at 1.85, my ram at 3.1, timing stays at 3-3-3-8. Maybe this mobo is just not great for OCing? Also, my temps are crap, but this is the best I can do through lots of trial and error.
