I'm not planning to o/c my ram. I can o/c my proc by adjusting multiplier...so my ram will run at ddr400. Just wanna know wat is the default timing for this ram.
I previously using apacerddr400 512M cl2.5, thats why feels downgraded when use 2GB cl3

im a beginer for oc my rig so i would like some expert to give me some advise on my rig.

here is my rig info.

Abit KN8-Ultra (update the bios to the latest)
AMD Athlon64 3200+ Winchester
2 x 512mb ddr hynix CTP type ram (double sided 4 chip each side)
powercolor ati radeon x1300

U can try following configuration, but i not responsible for any hardware damage.

Bios : ram timing, set SPD, then select ddr 333
FSB 280
Vcore 1.42
Vdimm 2.7

My kvr ddr400 1gb x2
Is the timing correct?

The timing is normal. Dont worry.

My Bt-D43 tops out at 255mhz. He wont go up anymore, maybe i'll cook it longer and see how it goes.

same..my dt-d43 can run 3-3-3-8 @ 255mhz...2.658v...more thn tat not stable...

3-3-3-8 @ 255mhz with 2.658v is considered nice, mine on 3-4-4-10 @ 255mhz with 3v for cooking purpose. Maybe i can tight the timings later on. Hopefully.

guys, im gonna buy a mobo at the end of the month, n i wan to ask which mobos arent compatible@have problems with BT D43 rams? ill be using my 3200+ and ram from my current computer. i dun think ill be getting dfi.. ive narrowed my choices down to Abit kn8@an8. gigabyte k8n sli and asus a8n-E. my budget would be around 400. or maybe u guys can recommend other mobos? sli would be an extra 4 that price range. thnx

To me i prefer Abit and Asus mobo than Gigabyte. I'll choose Abit KN8, if can take KN8 Ultra.

@uzairi

cook pakai apa? MEMTEST atau CPU BURN-In amik blend test?

I cook using F@H, coz it wont stress the ram too much and slowly make it cook. Memtest is just to test if there's any error with the rams. CPU Burn-in in the other side is a good software to use but it would make ur pc laggy so its not advisable. The best would be F@H client.

p/s: Join me Folding, u can help find cure for protein related desease and the same time cook the rams.

if F@H, I'm already in... hehehehehe
However, whether the GUI or TEXT-BASED client will 'cook' more?

It would be the same, i use text console coz the GUI one uses more memory.

guyzz.. it's been a month since my "problem" started.. anyway to max oc my pc?

Your mobo is limiting it, unless u can find a modded bios then u have to live with it. Running low mutil with high fsb wont gine any good news also ?

Hey D43 kakis my DT - D43s are able to run at fsb 250 @2.85v timing 3-3-3-8 . Ive read that u guys are able to push to 255 or 265 at tight timings . Am i able to achieve such feat? do i need heat spreaders? already running for 1 mnth or so.

I'm using 2x 512 btw.
Mobo asus p4p800 deluxe
p4 2.8 northwood

Maybe u can get it but there's no guarantee that u can get the same results. The best way is to test it yourself and see how far u can crank the mhz. D43 timing cant be tighten that much, the best would be 3-3-3-8 or 3-4-4-8. For some D43's ecen cl2.5 wont make any differences with cl3, so u need to test it yourself because there no same ram module. Every module is different in overclocking and speeds and timings depends on how u set it up. Try to use 1T , 2T , CL2.5 , CL3 and see how. Happy clocking.

based on my expirience
mine use 1gb ct-d43 i know thats not such great
compare dual 512mb cause i had only 2 slots
but i get new timing

ddr 333 , ct 1 , didvider 3
timing 2.5-3-3-6
274 x 9 = 2.47ghz (9 is max multiplier in my mobo)

my rig amd64 754 2800(2.74ghz) 37%oc
mobo abit nf3 only hhehe

Nice, but i think even with a 1:1 divider u can get it flying high.

wat is the highest ever this BT-D43 can go?? last nite just tried it out & currently i can get 275HTT x10@ 1CPC, vcore 1.5 & vdimm 2.7.. but then i kenot dare to push my processor vcore higher since i stressing it already reach 59c cpu temp

ps : it was made by Kingston in year 2001 & another in 2003. currently running at 270Htt x10, timming 3-4-4-8@ DDR450, vdimm 2.7(2.6 kenot boot)
