so far i got one pm frm user here
stil hvnt test it out yet..

i already tested..... My ram and processor cannot go beyond 230FSB, no matter what timing i set.

probably my low vcore is the main problem like mentioned by shinjite.

so currently 225FSB with 2-3-3-5 is the best i can get and maintained.

havent add me since v1.. haha! this is the third time i post my spec.. wee still a s478 supporter...


P4 3.0E @ stock/ Gigabyte GA8I865 PE Pro-1000/Geil DDR400 256MB*2/XFX GeForce 5700LE

another year for it support, then time to change.. go go go!

too bad it cant push any higher, just grap siauann's max3 and try it out.

anyway, you are now having a very nice rig that can get 38s 1m superPI.

my friend wishes to purchase the board but i not sure whether have he ask siauann or not. actually, i am very interested too but my gf is staring me with those very cold eyesight. so you know lo. hehe... *bought too many stuffs these few months.

so i think i had to satisfy for what i have now. hehe. what to do.


nelza_ax, add me to the list.
all of my spec is at my signature. thanks ya

Hmmm....I think the last thing you can do it tighten up your ram timings, go to 2-3-2-5 and see instead of 2-3-3-5

tried that... i cant boot my comp

okay later i'll disable it just tightened my ram timings from 2.5-3-3-6 to 2-3-3-6 but not much difference should i up my vdimm slightly?

if its stable then you don't have to

2-3-3-6 is quite tight already, have you try superPI??

@irangan
i thk u shd start playing wif ram timing since u knw ur proc limit liao
btw ur board oso 875 chipset mah...not a bad one i thk
anyway nice ram u have there

did that... the best i can get is from 225FSB, 3 4 4 8 to 225FSB, 2 3 3 5. i can go 225FSB 2 3 2 5 but sometime cant boot and sometime can. not sure why.

though, my mobo is 875P but no match in term of OC if compare to your IC7 Max. sigh. BUT i have 6 ram slots! hehe

about the ram, yes it is a very nice ram especially with its very cheap price.

@irangan
the Gigabyte mobo u have there with 6 ram slot is a gimmic by gigabyte.
u won't used up that much of slot either.
but the mobo is really a great one for i875 chipset mobo series! no doubt of it.

i think you can check your mobo website for details. Are you wanna upgrade your CPU??


hoho, dump all you ram 2*1GB, 4*512MB, then you have 4GB of ram, no sweat.....

Wah your RAM can go with 2-3-3-5 timing,that's very nice.I think your RAM maybe can't get the 2-3-2-5 as the RAM's limitation or the chipset's limitation.

If its a great one, its VCore limit would not be 1.6V only

very true... i875P chipset only can support 4 pieces of ram, anything more than that is considered OC your mobo. it is written in the manual. haha..

last time i bought this mobo is due to its wide range goodies that come with its and of course the gimmic of 6 ram slots. haha.

i think 2 gig of ram is good for now and coming 1 year. that's why i am selling off my old ram. no use anymore.

ya, it is a very good ram with cheap price. i think is my mobo that restricting the ram. most of the buyer of the ram running at 2 3 2 5.

IC-7 Max famous for its OC
Asus (forgot the name) famous for its performance
and my mobo famous for its wide range of function and stablity. hehe

if not wrong asus 875 mobo that nice is p4c800-e series, shawty own that goody mobo.
as for 865pe then it will be p4p800-e series

too bad mine is x series......cheapo series.....
