This Kingmax isn't any better than my OCZ.
Only differenc is I can run it @ Cas 2 2 6,but can't go any higher on the FSB

By chance, do you have any Mushkin to also test in your system?

How do you do that without overclocking it.
I wish I knew what was holding me back

How are you measuring temps on the CPU? If you're running an AMD XP 1600+ (1400 MHz) at 1570MHz with 1.85 vcore on just an HSF, your temps should be pretty high right? Also, the XP 1600+ only does 133FSB (266 DDR) right? Then taking it to 156FSB is a big jump.

Do you have software to measure the memory bus? Do you know if the KT266 chipset can run in asynch mode?

Every burn in I have tryed it has never gotten above 41c

And the rest of that is correct..
I have mem test and Doc mem.
Dont know about the asynch mode//..


And I have seen 1600+ run a lot higher than this

I'm running a P4 1.6a @ 2ghz with pc-2700. I'm planning on upgrading to Corsair for their cl2 ram, then my comp will really kick #$$.

hmmmm

Interesting that both OCZ and Kingmax score exactly the same for you... Try pulling all your pci cards out and see if you can overclock it higher. If you can get higher, test each card one at a time and see what's holding you back. Might be voltage to either ram or cpu that you need. My 1600+ needs 1.9+ volts to go above 1.6Ghz.

Another option to try to get it higher besides a volt mod, is to run lower fsb with an 10.5x or 11x multiplyer (what I'm doing).

As for not getting as high on the mem bandwidth score as some other ppl... might just be differences in motherboards. I get about the same mem score as you(maybe a bit higher), but at 148 FSB, on my OCZ PC2700.

Well it may be my board,and I only have one stick of Kingmax left I dont know what caused this,but one of them burned off a pin,on slot 2,I wonder if it was a bad stick or the MB..
