OK, I have my 2.8E @ 3.5, running stable for weeks now on 1.42V, but it's only prime stable if I use 5:4 and run the memory at 200 Mhz (250FSB)
I have OCZ Gold PC3700 Rev2 RAM, and I can run memtest at 1:1 250 all I want and have no problems. But I boot into windows, get amazing sandra and aida32 benchmarks, but prime95 fails fairly quickly.
The only weakness that I know of in the system is the 350W power supply, but newegg just shipped my Sparkle 530W PSU and I should have it early this week.
I really don't see the PSU affecting this however.....
I have tried running at default timings to 3-4-4-8, prime will fail quickly... within a couple minutes.
I have the VDIMM at 2.9V, so it's getting plenty of power (gotta love that EVP)
Are there any other settings I should try? the GAT/PAT settings perhaps? they are all on auto.
I just find it odd that I can run memtest over and over and not have one single error, but prime will fail very quickly.....
Thanks for any help you may have...
