This is my first post and I was wondering if anyone could help me with a memory issue.
I have 2 1GB crucial Ballistix 1066 stickshttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148069 and it won't go over 220mhz FSB when I MEMtested it the bandwidth was only 1100mb/s and it failed the first test. But when I checked the BIOS in my motherboard I noticed that the max vDimm I can set is only 1.95v and the recommended voltage for my memory is 2.2v so what I wanted to know is if the memory is actually bad or if I just need a better mobo to support it, and if I need a better mobo any recommendations for a good AM2 board?
Here's my specs
ASUS M2N-E SLI AM2 Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131096
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Black Edition
Geforce 8800GTS 640mb
Antec 500w PSU
If anyone can help me I'd truly appreciate it.
