I have an
AMD 3800 x2 2Ghz @ 2.65Ghz G skill 2gb(2x1gb) F1-3200PHU2-2GBZX ASUS A8N-SLI deluxe mobo The RAM is F1-3200PHU2-2GBZX ddr400 2gb(2x1gb) Ok so this is my 3rd set from RMA-ing my RAM to G skill. The 2 sets I had before this had been able to overclock to 220Mhz and over with my cpu at 2.65Ghz. This is the setting I had with the last 2 sets of RAM i had. CPU________ FSB-265 MULTI-10x Volt-1.35v Memory_____ FSB:5/6-333Mhz VOLT-auto Timing-2-3-2-5 Now i received my new RAM from the RMA to Gskill and i am unable to achieve an O/C of 210Mhz and over. This RAM i received is the new type of F1-3200PHU2-2GBZX with a different Heatsink(logo on very left, rather than middle) So now i am trying to figure out why the RAM wont even overclock above 220Mhz, because in order for my to achieve an overclock of 2.65Ghz I will need my RAM at 220Mhz. At 210 my computer was only running for at least an hour b4 it restarted. Whenever I run the memory above 210Mhz I always get either a blinking underscore "_" or the pc restarts. My ultimate goal in telling you this is so I may bring my CPU clock back up to 2.65Ghz and not run it stock. Since i cannot achieve the proper overclock i ran the newest version of memtest and received these results: Did I receive a bad batch from G Skill? It seems as though this RAM is getting too many errors. The memtest ran by itself upon booting up and only lasted about 10 seconds. I couldn't get the pc to resond after it gave me the results of the tests. ![]() This is what the RAM appears to look like with the new heatsink. ![]() This is what the old RAM looked like.
