Interested in hearing about your DDR2 binning notes :) Congrats on being so close to having a "clean sweep"..... keep pushing it!! :D

Hope jcool doesn't have any backups, I already sent the setup back xD
If he does, it's a good time for everyone to put some FBDIMM for sale on ebay :D

Working on buying each and every single Micron D9 that ebay has to offer first :P

First series:

 

Test Setup:

CPU: Intel Core2Duo E8400 @ (x9 for stab. test, x6 for suicide) with a stupid low profile cooler

MB: Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R

Memory: check list

PSU: Seasonic Platinum 1000 Watts

OS: Windows XP

Fan: Noctua fan on the memory module

Cooling: Air

 

Highest valid on air so far: http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2686886

 

1.- Stability test at 4-4-4-12-2T-Auto w/ 2.2Vmem:

Boot at 250 MHz FSB (Divider: 266MHz & 4.00A aka 1:2strap266) => 500 MHz mem

Then increase FSB using SetFSB by 10 MHz, run SuperPi32M (takes about 20 mins to finish)

=> repeat till SuperPi32 Crash

Write down stable freq (highest freq memory module was able to compute SPi32M)

 

2.- Stability test at 5-5-5-15-2T-Auto w/ 2.2Vmem:

Boot at 300 MHz FSB (Divider: 333Hz & 4.00B aka 1:2strap333) => 600 MHz mem

Then increase FSB using SetFSB by 10 MHz, run SuperPi32M (takes about 20 mins to finish)

=> repeat till SuperPi32 Crash

Write down stable freq (highest freq memory module was able to compute SPi32M)

 

2.- Suicide CPU-Z Screen w/ 2.6Vmem 5-5-5-15-2T-Auto:

Boot at 350 MHz FSB (Divider: 333Hz & 4.00B aka 1:2strap333) => 700 MHz

Then increase FSB using SetFSB 10 MHz by 10 MHz till Windows XP freeze

Write down Crash freq - 10 MHz.

Red: either dead (DOA) or I need to solder something back on the PCB.
