Hi guys,

Can any1 tell me watz the highest freq can Q9400 goes?
Those hu r using the same category proc can share wif me?
This is wat i can clock n its stable... mor den dat nt stable d...

great job getting 500FSB on that .
possibly aorund 550 max i think .
try google around .
hehe

Mayb becoz of my RAM i thnk...
Coz i OC my 800 to 1000...

If i get 1066 Ram... wif ratio 1:1
i can get higher^^

hi bro....

try to set your ram to lower mhz 1st.. i mean lower then default mhz..

then OC your CPU... if your CPU stable then just clock your ram.

this step is most OCer do it 1st....

I dun noe y my mobo must use 1:1 ratio wan...
EP45-UD3L

So the higher RAM freq the higher CPU freq...

Can sum1 help me wif this?
i wana get rid of 1:1 ratio...

1:1 is the lowest you can get.
If you ram is bottle-necking your overclock mileage, then you should change to a good ram.

-pWs-

this is the lowest ram speed for the setting.

what mobo is that?

EP45-UD3L

Added on July 8, 2010, 7:52 amMy ram do nt face bottlenecking prob...
itz stable...

jz wana stop using 1:1 ratio...
coz i wana try to oc my q9400 mor higher without oc-ing my ram...

Added on July 8, 2010, 7:54 amwat do u min by lowest ram speed for the setting?
My ram is A-DATA Gaming series at default 800mhz...
i oc to 1000mhz...

in 1:1 ratio...
the bios shows 500 x 2 for the RAM (1000mhz)
500 x 8 for the proc (4.0ghz)

Get yourself to learn the divider.
Then you will know what we going to say here.

-pWs-

ASUS can set proc n ram unlink in bios...
bt mine can...
surely link in high oc...
else, i can unlink it when i set it as default freq

u said it urself......
dats y need to set to 1:1 ratio.

I dont rily get wat u min wif the statement

Dat mobo function only 1:1 when i overclock my proc...
The proc feq link to the ram freq...
so when i oc my proc, ram will be clocked too...

^^ so asking for superb overclocker's help...
how to make it "unlink" so that i can oc my proc only without changing ram clock...

u cant unlink it unless u use nvidia chipset board, but i dont think they going to overclock a quad to 500fsb easily.
and if u use 800mhz for 500fsb, u wont not get desire performance.
They key to tweak the performance in p45 is the PL setting, with 1:1 u will get > 10 in PL, maybe 11 or 12, u can check it using memset.

yes hengmy said rite..

nvidia chipset really hard oc FSB to above 400mhz.. there is FSB barrier..

btw TS, did u know how calculate the divider at 1 place?

for eg: 1066 FSB / 4 = 266mhz x multiplier = Speed thus 266mhz x 3 = 800mhz ram... 3 = ratio.. as u see 1:1 ratio... (i take 2:3 ratio)

Oh...
mine is 500mhz : 500mhz
so is 1:1, iznt it?

your adata ram is performance ram or value ram?
what is your dram voltage?

Itz 1.80 - 2.10...
i set it as 2.04...

Performance ram...
Itz gaming series ram...

Look lk this http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1461147&hl=
I attach 4 pics...
Bt Ther is only 1 picture with DDR2 800mhz...
The rest is DDR3...
Coz im selling DDR3 n use DDR2

not sure how far this ram can go., maybe you can get DDR2 1066 ram.
a base clock of 500mhz is impressive already.
i think 1:1 is the lowest ratio already, you don't have 5:4 to let the ram run at 400mhz with 500mhz base clock.

Yeap...
DDR2 wif 1066mhz will b great for me...
waiting for PIKOM PC Fair to get 1 pair...

get crucial ballistix DDR2 1066, overclock king among ram.

o.O
king is d9gkx which is team xtreem ram

oops, sorry. just read from this article say that crucial ballistix PC2-6400 is the top.
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ddr2-r...ory,2079-6.html

rupa-rupanya team xtreem ram is so powerful one.

both is good .
will get u at the OC setting u want .
both from d9 series .

the crucial is d9gmh while team is d9gkx .
more or less, both are awesome chips .
buat personally, i'd say go for team xtreem instead

i see. how about g.skill with best timing, read from the same article also?
using d9 series chips also?

g.skill im not sure cause when i was using DDR2 i was eye-ing on crucial and team xtreem rams only .

Errr the newer crucial ram is not using D9GMH
The Crucial that use D9GMH is 16FDx one aka double sided 1GB stick
Team Xtreem is quite awesome through,can hit 600mhz CL4 32M stable
And D9GMH/D9GKX only come in 1GB stick so only 2GB Kit
TO have 4GB,you have to buy 2 sets

how much voltage can be pumped into D9GMH?

Depend on speed/timing of course
Make sure you have proper cooling when attempting to pump vdimm through
