Posted May 2, 201114 yr The nominees are: Results will be like that for each kit: Test system: Asus Rampage Formula Intel Core2Duo E8400 Windows XP SuperPi 1M To valid a frequency or timings they have to successfully pass SuperPi 1M It's not as impressive as the SDRam Challenge because I haven't such an amount of DDR2 memory . But test results may surprise you You can read the full test here at Ocaholic.ch Edited May 4, 201114 yr by Christian Ney
May 2, 201114 yr i'll check if my ddr2 board can play with my d9s..lol been too busy with core i series... today we found out some ddr3s can play super with snbs
May 2, 201114 yr Wanna mines ? http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1794500 (D9 gmh with 2.6v) But you need the mobo to match with them
May 2, 201114 yr Author Wanna mines ? http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1794500 (D9 gmh with 2.6v) But you need the mobo to match with them yes why not, I will add them to the test Don't worry my Rampage Formula is enought She does easily more than 600 MHz with stock voltage
May 2, 201114 yr wow 2.6v and stock alu cooler? Yup that's Ballistix Tracer 16fd17 something like that. I can rise a bit again bit doesn't really improve a lot over this voltage. It's becoming difficult to run Spi at this range but 1M @700 is reachable... for 32M I'm sure I'd need too loose timings UD3P is the only P45 mobo I get over 666. Noway Chris, I keep them
May 2, 201114 yr Author it's just for 1 week, I will not kill them ... It's not a s478 Motherboard afaik Edited May 2, 201114 yr by Christian Ney
May 2, 201114 yr Author okay this is getting sick. The Kingston ValueRam Memory is smashing Corsair Dominator GT fyi: KVR Specs : 266 MHz 4-4-4-12 1.8v fyi: Dominator GT : 533 Mhz 5-5-5-15 2.1v Corsair did only 479 Mhz @ 4-4-4-12 while Kingston did 533 Mhz. fyi 533 MHz is 2 x 266 MHz which is 2 x the SPD of the memory and that without any heatspreader or cooling system. Kingston KVR results: :crying: the 200 € Dominator GT kit I bought is smashed by Value Memory I found at the dump
May 2, 201114 yr 2Gb D9GMH modules don't exist (in non-ECC variant), that's why value RAM clocks better with 4-4-4
May 2, 201114 yr Author hum true the OCZ Reaper aren't with D9GMH, I found D9GMH on i4memory. According to OCZ there is 89 % being Elpida And I am quite sure the Dominator GT aren't D9 too but according to Corsair's Ram Guy yes... And with my skill on removing memory HeatSpreader I will not try to check the IC EDIT: I spammed OCZ, Kingston and Corsair on the Forum and by technical support to know the IC used, Wait&See Edited May 2, 201114 yr by Christian Ney
May 2, 201114 yr Author ehr... Unfortunately impossible to choose lower timings with X48 chipset. Kingston ValueRam Memory:eek: No I am not being paid by Kingston Still no heatspreader, no cooling and 2.6v
May 2, 201114 yr Author 3 tRAS from the BIOS (it's the min) then 1 tRAS using memset EDIT: OCZ Reaper Results: Not as bad Edited May 2, 201114 yr by Christian Ney
May 2, 201114 yr Author Kingston HyperX: And I kept the best for the end, GSKill HZ. But for today it's over results will be available tomorrow.... I hope
May 2, 201114 yr Crew No way those Dominator GT are D9GMH, maybe another sort of D9, but probably they are ProMOS or PSC. That's why the Kingston value RAM is performing better, it's only about the chips. Also, 1M is a pretty meaningless memory test. Sorry. Can you try the lowest voltage you need for 32M at 400 3-3-3-9, 500 4-4-4-12 and 600 5-5-5-15 with the HZ?
May 2, 201114 yr Author In fact I chose 1M that is around 16-20s long to have ~stable freq for superpi 1M oc or pifast. I dont think all people are running 32M with same 1M's freq and timings. Here its not about H24 freq and timings. Here its about to sort memory chips/kit if they are bad for 1M there will be bad too for 32M. Yes I can do the lowest voltage need for 32M with the HZ. EDIT: Who want the Dominator GT btw ? Or I will bury them next to the P4C800-E Deluxe, maybe next year I will have a mother nature's computer -.- Edited May 3, 201114 yr by Christian Ney

May 3, 201114 yr Author Do you know if it's the X48 limit or it's impossible to set CAS2 for DDR2 or it's Asus' BIOS ? Cause CAS2 is not available on the bios and with memset too Edited May 3, 201114 yr by Christian Ney
May 3, 201114 yr To my knowledge tCAS 3 is the lower limit of the DDR2 specification, so you will not find any mainboard to run tCAS 2. Btw for comparison numbers feel free to have a look at the RAM oc list @ PCGHX: http://extreme.pcgameshardware.de/overclocking-mainboards-und-speicher/15996-high-score-liste-maximaler-ram-takt-nach-cas-latenz-geordnet.html#post127051
May 3, 201114 yr Author Nice thx for the link. Yep I have to test DDR1 too. I just managed to find and buy on ebay: OCZ Gold GX PC3500 2-2-2-5 (BH-5) Corsair Platinum XNS3200 2-2-2-5 (BH-5) G.Skill LA PC3200 2-2-2-5 PC4800 3-4-4-8 (TCCD) A-Data Vitesta DDR 566 (TCCD)
