Accidental Settings Seem To Work...

zomfgcrazy · Jun 15, 2010

I accidentally set my stock 7-8-7-24 2 RAM to 7-7-7-24 2 before putting it through memtest for two full loops. No errors, everything appears to be in working order. I intended for 7-8-7-24 2, but since this seems to work fine and from what I've read the wrong number (tRCD) is actually better to have low would it be fine slash better to just leave it as is?

Thanks!

As long as it passes memtest, you're good to go!

=D Alright!

I'm currently memtesting the ram at higher blocks.. wanna find the highest speed without upping the default voltage. once i hit a speed at which i get errors should i change the 7 back to an 8? would that make enough of a difference either way? should i just 'forget' about it and leave it as is?

When you get errors, try changing it back to 8 and see if that fixes the errors. If so, keep going.
If not, back it down a notch and run it at 7.

hmm that's interesting. i got mines down to 6-6-6-18-24 on memtest, but windows didn't seem to like it.

Yes sometimes it will pass Memtest but not work in Windows. Looks like you went too far.
