Hi,
I've had this gig of Corsair pc3200XL TCCD since it 1st came out.
Been running it @ 2-2-2-8 2.8v since day 1
11.5x200
Started running memtest on it & I'm not happy so far.
All 8.5 multiplier(X)
200mhz = np
210mhz = errors after 5 minutes
220mhz = errors instantly
lax up timings (2.5-3-3-10) 220mhz = sorry charlie.
210mhz = (2-2-2-5) = good
Seems this stuff likes tight timings but not a high mhz/fsb
I have it running in a NF-7 nonS ver2 mobo.
D10 bios, no L12. (yeah yeah I know do them yesterday)
I have that D26 "other" bios sittin there & haven't flashed it yet.
I did the L12 a while back & don't think it worked, so I pulled it out.
(gotta try again)
So, what's up with this memory? I thought TCCD was 'spose to be the next BH-5 memory?
So far (6 months) I think this was a waste of $$. tight timings are nice & it
runs good, but I coulda bought a kick arse vid card for what I paid for these.
I still have a lot of testing to go, but a little feed back from anyone who has tccd chips would be cool.
I just think it's really just the combo of older mobo & cpu.
I'm sure if I put these in an A64 rig they'd fly.
TIA
