Bro, are you using the mainstream Twin2X with the black heat spreader? I believe can run 4-4-4-12 at 2.1V and slightly lower at 400mhz. I run fine at 412mhz at CL4 on 2.1V but I think mine is rev 5.1, promos chip.

Kindly advise the maximum speed I can go. Currently running 470mhz at CL5 on 1.95V.

mine's xms2 DHX..but run at 5-5-5-18 n 1.8v..tried to set it to 4-4-4-12 but failed..any idea? spec as in my siggy..

I did try 1000Mhz w CAS5. Higher than that, never try.
My Vdimm high maybe because of i running 4 sticks of TwinX that time.

Do you add Vdimm?

-pWs-

nice.... situation gets heated up now little...
good...
i wanna tweak my
XMS2 Twin 2x 2048-6400C5 DHX
800Mhz, what can i do about it?
anyone help out here...

Your hardware details??
I heard that Intel platform uses less Vdimm [same frequency same timing] if compared to AMD platform.

-pWs-

tahts because intel chipsets use 2T timings instead of 1T, but for intel, it makes little difference

using 2Gb kit XMS 2 DHX 4-4-4-12
ocied till 1035Mhz with 5-5-5-12 2.1v
never try beyong that

Ermm...how about AMD also use 2T ???

this is so true in my case atleast. DDR2 1000 @ 5-4-4-12 on intel platform need 2.2v, on amd w same settin, 2.4v...

Sys Specs:
AMD X2 3600+ G1 @ 2300MHz @ Cm HyperTX
Corsair XMS Twin2X2048-5400C4 ver5.1
Abit KN9S M/B
FSP 400W PSU

wahh!!!
nice overclocking... 1035MHz...
so means my XMS2 Twin 2x 2048-6400C5 DHX can go up to 1024MHz too....
wa nice results there

Can't over 1100Mhz?
Hmm..

why not? max you may go is 1200MHz, need to increase voltage la....
and your motherboard must also be able to support it...
i dont think anyone dares to do that rite....

anyone done that B4 ?

Ermm
I think it depends on chipset.

I think it is hard to achieve 1200MHz unless ram w D9 chipset [D9GMH only available in version 1.x]
Not sure about DHX using what chipset.

-pWs-

oh i see...
thanks for that info...
btw, i dun want to kill my ram anyway...
is it possible to OC my ram without increasing the Voltage?

and how to do it ?

your c5dhx is based what version? my friend got the same ram but his one is rev2.1 and I search in google, it is based promos chipset

i tried to change the timing to 4-4-4-15 wit voltage 1.95v..but cannot..dunno why..1.95v is teh max voltage for vdimm in d bios.. as for the chipset, mine's hynix..

means i can OC to???
a promos chipset can OC high??
