hi.just oc my cpu to 3ghz.was wondering if changing the memory voltage or timings will squeeze any more out of her. id like to oc the reapers anyway but dont know the best way.can someone please put me on the right track? thanks guyz.:beer:

hmmm..430mhz at 5-5-5-18
you coudl try to lower those timings to 4-4-4-12 or someting similar. these tighter timings will require more voltage on the memory though. with 4gb kits, especially your Reapers taht use Powerchips, scaling between voltage and timings/speed will stop at a certain point.
after 2.2v (approx) any extra voltage won't do anything. so you could mess around with these settings :thup:
 
i've got my Reaper X at 850mhz 4-4-3-10 with 2.1v

i once tried booting with 2.3v on vdimm...just didn't boot.
kinda weird ey lol.
hey 18 is #1. you're always hanging around the Memory section :p
i see you atleast once in every thread lol. may i ask why? :)
just wondering.

It's the one area that I have extensively experimented with.
How high will those Reaper X sticks go?
