QUOTE(Punish @ Dec 29 2007, 02:20 PM) guys really quick here....wat the best valueram around....? Patriot Crucial maybe..? my friend patriot value can do 800 44412 qute good huh for such value ram...wanna find something liddat Tq in advance... GTG Not sure but prefer Crucial. I'm running my Kingston Value RAM DDR2 667Mhz at 800Mhz 4-4-4-12 also 
Added on December 31, 2007, 10:56 amQUOTE(kmarc @ Dec 31 2007, 10:24 AM) Definitely. 4 sticks of rams are more difficult to overclocked compared to 2 sticks. In addition, your PC2-5300 will hold back the overclock. My maximum was to go to 850Mhz with 5-5-5-15 timings, if go all the way to 900Mhz get errors from Orthos within 2 seconds already. 
Added on December 31, 2007, 10:57 amQUOTE(sHawTY @ Dec 31 2007, 10:37 AM) 4GB DDR2 ram fever is in town.  Later you'll see many will post their results of overclocking their newly purchased 4GB DDR2 rams. Nice, coz you're sellin' all those 4GB kits  This post has been edited by skymyxe: Dec 31 2007, 10:57 AM |

QUOTE(kmarc @ Dec 31 2007, 05:47 PM) Should be able to run perfectly without any problems at stock clocks...... I have 1gb x 4 sticks but haven't tried on my DS3 yet.... Wondering why is that. You do have a lot of superb performance RAM's I'd say. If only I can get my hands on Crucial  |

QUOTE(kmarc @ Dec 31 2007, 08:31 PM) Lazy to try 4 sticks. So far, 2Gb is enough for me......  True2, 2GB is enough already. Just my RAM's can't go further, so have to wait for high performance or buy ddr2 800Mhz |

Added on January 3, 2008, 12:54 amem..system dunt wan to boot up... Yup, try to increase the voltage. For me, I need 2.13V to reach stable with 800Mhz and 4-4-4-12 timings. 850Mhz with 5-5-5-15 timings will need 2.28V. |

The E2140 can OC higher. Put the memory divider to 1:1 and increase the bus speed until 333Mhz if possible. Then, target for 400Mhz bus speed, then you'll have it OC to 3.2Ghz and 800Mhz for DDR2 RAM.

QUOTE(a1098113 @ Jan 4 2008, 02:44 PM) microns should be able to do higher... with lower voltage.. Yup, agree with that. Hynix can do 800Mhz and 4-4-4-12. Quite decent. |

QUOTE(RokXIII @ Jan 6 2008, 12:46 PM) nope, not micron chip i think, micron D9 chipset can do better. I think even Hynix chipset already can achieve what you did, no offense... Agree with that. D9 could be pushed further. Mine is dong 800Mhz 4-4-4-12 with 2.13V. |

Added on January 6, 2008, 7:13 pmQUOTE(karichio @ Jan 6 2008, 04:13 PM) noob here wan to ask any sifu here, im now using Twinmos 2x512 ddr667 ram, and i set its timing to 4-4-4-12 at ddr800, will it shorten its lifespan considering long term use? Forget bout lifespan. In a year or two you'll be changing to DDR3 already. Either you sell or throw away your old RAM's Technology is too fast. Forget lifespan and try to OC within it's limit and not spoil it too soon. That's all. Furthermore, when you pay a price, you surely wanna maximize on what you'll be gettin, so just ignore bout lifespan issue and use it, OC it while it can.

QUOTE(a1098113 @ Jan 6 2008, 07:28 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « oh well.. im not giving you the same advice as Sky.. ill say that overclocking needs a purpose and requires responsibility of the overclocker to know basic rules of overclocking. 1.Know what youre overclocking, the do's and dont's 2.There is always a limit to everything For rams, you can try any voltage between 1.8V-2.2V, this range doesnt require additional cooling. And yes like every other product the lifespan of it goes down due to unnatural clocking and heating(due to overvolts) Couldn't agree more. The best is to learn the basics, do's and don'ts and the limit of your RAM itself. From my way of thinkin' if it can be pushed further then why not. After all you have the warranty and paid the price for it. Sure, don't spoil it too soon. |

Moved my rams to the slots near the CPU (previously on the slots away from the CPU)... Ram settings at 4-4-4-8 @ 2.1v (extreme performance in bios) - 970mhz failed orthos (blend test) - 965mhz - ongoing test (see pic).... Pretty impressive  Wish I had those 10th Anni so that I can push my Processor further.  |

So far, the 2 pairs of crucial rams (ballistix and 10th anni) I have seems to overclock almost as good.... up to 2.1v at least.... but remember that the 10th anni is DDR2-667 while the ballistix is DDR2-800.... @ skymyxe - why not get the crucial ballistix? Now selling for soooooo much cheaper in garage sales.... RM290 for 2x1gb...  Ya, saw that also. but still have no budget at least for another couple of months |

I'd try OCCT. It's a test so we'll see how it runs. In addition if we can get stable with only an hour test then that'll be great. I wouldn't have to spend hours anymore to run Orthos test. |
