Yellow dimm slots and psc, huh never tried this. Probably because all 3 Z97 OCF's had them sealed tight from water. Good mems btw !

Amazing run, mad skillz !

Welcome back bro, nice gold !

@gtijackson . . .

Okay, I now see why you let the ddr3 kit go. I've been drooling over these Dom P's myself for a while now, looking forward to 1t results in the near future ! .

Seems like yesterday the number to aim for was 6000, time fly's

4 ducks in a row, now that must be good luck !

Go Go Barbo !!!

Most of the guys here are more concerned about how they overclock, and more specifically can they run Super Pi 32m with wazza at 4080c12-11, 4133c12-11 or more . That is close to a $500 usd kit retail, why don't you sell them somewhere like reddit hrdwareswap, another OC forum or ebay. They are Samsung B die which is the most desired/relevant memory currently so they have that going for them. Basically since the XMP on B die hardly matters here most guys are not looking to spend over $100 on any untested 2x8gb b die. Maybe see if another UK overclocker with proper board and skills can test them for you as good b die can fetch $200 or so for 2x8gb kit

You can find some info here, the ic's used are PSC-X or BBSE most likely. It appears that hwbot member "emissary42" had powerchip PSC-X in his, these are his findings https://www.hardwareluxx.de/community/f13/hardwareluxx-spd-datenbank-ddr4-ic-liste-last-update-28-10-18-a-1073628.html https://www.hardwareluxx.de/community/f12/msi-z97m-gaming-live-review-done-1062683.html a) [PSC] Mushkin Copperhead 996772 (2x2GB DDR3-1600 7-8-7-20 1.65V) This is one of my newer kits that has never been tested on any other motherboard. Since it is not entirely clear what type of IC these specifications are, the first OC attempts were mainly for identification purposes. In the race were some Elpida variants, as well as more or less good Powerchips (PSC). The settings to configure the training of the memory were not touched. The Z97M GAMING behaved consistently in non-bootable settings, after three attempts to start is greeted by the Overclocking Failed message and asked if you want to load one of the stored profiles. Resetting the CMOS was never necessary. DDR3-2200 7-10-7-26 1T 1.63V DDR3-2400 8-11-7-27 2T 1.82V It quickly turned out that Mushkin apparently used ICs from Powerchip on this copy. Due to the production date in 2009, this should be the X variant. Typical is a good scaling with CL7 at relatively low voltages. For DDR3-2200 tCL7 and tWL 6 the kit needed only 1.63V and a minimal increase of tRCD and tRAS. At DDR3-2400, however, suddenly no command rate of 1 more was possible. Even with the use of the 125 or 167 straps this could not be avoided. Whether this is a general problem of the Z97M GAMING with this type of IC, will require the next tests with other kits. Since the required voltage for DDR3-2400 was already quite high and even DDR3-2600 CL8 could not be started at 1.90V, further tests with the Copperheads are not planned for the time being. Update: Even with my other and better quality PSC based kits DDR3-2400 command rate of 1T is no longer possible (tested with Corsair CMGTX1 , OCZ OCZ3RPR2133C7LV4GK OCZ3R ). It also looks like hwbot member blabla123 had them too, but I noticed 996772 is Muskin Copperhead, not Blackline. Either way the 7-8-7-20 @ 1.65v timings mean psc or bbse most likely BAZA podkręcania oraz kompatybilności pamięci DDR2, DDR3 i DDR4- dowolna platforma - Forum PCLab.pl - Strona 51

Yeah buddy !

To add to this I figured out the average voltage needed based upon the binning criteria, as well as the median V. There were 35 total entries 3 of which have no info, so 32 counted Total = 41.635v 41.635 / 32 = 1.30109375v Average High- 1.375v Low- 1.230v Median- 1.3025v

Welcome Back RT ! Sky and B Die pain led you to well deserved success !

Mem sure does matter, very nice Gold. Single core Mem score is solid, I set a goal for myself of 8750 and so far I'm losing

This is actually 1800MHz sir.

Not bad kid ! Good to see you back enjoying what you do

So was this a progressive or just a local jackpot ? Marc knows all about this machine, he's been pumping max bid 3 quarters (75¢) for 4 days now. At least they comped his buffet, lol

One 6400 & one 6750 please

Solid Sammies Aero !

So Fast, give this man some 4133c12-11's and snag Gold !
