Hi,
Just changed my mem and cpu on my NF7-s v2. Had a desktop barton 2500@2200 mhz @1.75v and 1x512 buffalo ch5 stick, prime/memtest86/fah/game stable
Now I have a 2600 xp-m currently doing 2100mhz @1.45v and 2x512 pc3200 corsair vs. Not stable at all.
With the new config:
Mem at 200 mhz, 2.6v
Prime would error out in 10 min or less, if I run the FSB @ 200 and the mem at 5/6, it works just fine. CPU seems to do 2200 at 1.45 provided the mem is at less than 200 (still haven't really tested the CPU)
Memtest would produce ~1300 errors on test #5.
Mem at 198 mhz, 2.6v
0 problems
Mem at 202 mhz, 2.6v
Memtest alone gave me ~4000 errors on test #5, so I didn't go any further.
Mem at 200 mhz, 2.7v
Memtest consistently produces ~30 errors on test #5, prime and FAH are 24/7 stable. ~1240 errors less on memtest than with 2.6v then.
Mem at 200 mhz, 2.8v
Rock solid on all tests.
When I get 1300 errors on memtest, it's all over both sticks. I haven't bothered to test each stick at a time.
I guess it's fine to run @2.7, even though memtest asks for 2.8, but:
1- I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
2- Would it hurt the mem a lot to run it @ 2.8? I guess it's ok,but want more opinions on this.
Thanks!
