Wish I could now... now its not accepting that speed :( Guess I do have dud ram.
 
What do you mean? Is it not stable? You did manage a SPi 32M run earlier right? Just update it whenever you see a consistent result. No hurry. I'm using Sandra and Everest scores at this point.

This is why I picked atleast 3 programs. Some people may have problems with just one program.

Ya it managed SPi 32M at the time I took the shot, that was the last test I did actually. I then did a reboot to save the bios settings in reload so I knew it worked. Came back and BSOD'ed, man its been ages since I've seen a BSOD! 2+ Years to be semi exact.

But im really playing with my ram currently since I seem to be all over the board with what I can run and what I can't. BTW This was the yellow slots in my board, going to go back to the orange ones and flash a different bios to see if that helps at all. Really want 285 at least.. Looked so good at that speed.

Edit: Updated, getting a new CPU this weekend and got my ram running much higher stable in mem test currently. So well see how it goes and what the results bring later on.

Not trying to be horse's Axx, but Eva is using opteron, which shows better results than A64. It also has 1m L2, compared to 512 on A64. To be fair It would be a good idea to test mushkin counterpart on opteron 146, and have a section showing which CPU being used.
PS: congratulation Eva, very nice job.
 
2x1GB Mushkin Redline PC4000

Figured I should hurry up and get my placeholder in here. These are definatly not final max speeds, but I wont know those till the weekend when I actually have time to find them.
(they are at 1680x1050 so dialup beware).
