    Returning Asus P5K Deluxe. Help me pick something else!

    This is strange as I have never ever had to clear CMOS after a failed overclock. If the computer doesn't pass Post, all I have to do is press power for a couple of seconds to have the options to either use default settings (F1) or change the Bios settings (F2).

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    Eva2000, are you there? lol ;) Are you sure it's not the opposite? As ratios actually "divide" FSB to give the memory speed, don't they? Say you have a FSB of 400MHz, using a 5:6 divider will give a memory speed of 400/(5:6) = 480 which gives DDR2 960MHz. Is that not the way it works? Maybe...

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    Yes, as you say, the memory will run slower at 1:1 than 5:6, and put less load on the chipset. Still I didn't manage to post with another divider than 5:6, whatever the FSB. For instance, I have put the FSB down to 400MHz, timings loosened to 5-5-5-15 and 1T, but that didn't work. So that...

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    OK, I have now tried 1:1 and 1T, but it doesn't work. It seems like Xbit Labs are correct, and that only 5:6 and 5:8 can be used. I have successfully used 5:6, but haven't tried 5:8. So, at the current state of things, 1T isn't an interesting option with my configuration. I'd rather use...

    Best DDR2 800 memory on the market?

    My vote goes for G.Skill HZ. I've got mine running at 1200MHz 5-5-5-15 with 2.25V I can also run them at 1000MHz 4-4-4-10 with 2.20V

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    Indeed, the goal was to get the highest performance possible. Because of the limited choices available in dividers to use 1T on the P5K Deluxe. Cyant, thanks for posting your results. As you pointed out, the FSB is higher when I'm running at 1200MHz and 2T. However, I could not use the FSB...

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    Hi Guys. First, thanks to BillParish for the link. It states that the divider should be 5:6 or 5:8. I went for 5:6 which allowed me to be stable 1T. I have upped the Vdimm to 2.35V for the tests. I'll see if I can lower that. So, here are the settings: FSB: 425 Multi: 8x (3.4GHz) Memory...

    1T with G.Skill PC2 6400 HZ on a P5K Deluxe?

    Hi folks, Would you guys have any tips as to how to get the memory to run at 1T on a P5K Deluxe? I have been trying to get my setup (G.Skill 6400 HZ's + P5K Deluxe) to run at 1T command rate without any success. Does 1T need much more volts than 2T? For reference, I'm using 2.25V to...

    is it dangerous??

    So, to summarise, no your memory should not see its life shortened as you have just "tweaked" it. You should still make sure that the case has good airflow.

    is it dangerous??

    Hi Arnge. This is not technically an overclock; you have just tightened the timings. As for the memory's lifespan, it depends how much voltage you have put. I guess you didn't have to push the Vdimm too much to reduce timings without increasing frequency. In any case, it is always good to keep...

    G.Skil PC6400 HZ are awsome!

    @ Cyant: The big difference is that you are running at 1T. I have tried 1T in the past but could never post. I shall try again and will compare results. Edit: I've tried again to use 1T, but couldn't post. I have used a FSB of 425 1:1 and even 5-5-5-18 wouldn't work. The 1T option was...

    620hx vs OP650

    No, it doesn't glow.

    vCore is for the CPU right?

    That's probably Vdroop you are experiencing. Often, you don't get the voltage you have set in the BIOS when you get in windows. Additionally, under load some (anyone can confirm if that's for certain chipsets only?) motherboards will not be able to sustain the voltage.

    G.Skil PC6400 HZ are awsome!

    Hi All, I just wanted to share my experience with the G.Skill PC6400 HZ's. I'm using them on a P5K Deluxe WiFi and a E3642, and I'm really impressed what this RAM can do. They are rated to work at 800MHz and 4-4-4-12 timings with 2.1V. I have managed to get them to 1000MHz with 4-4-4-10 and...

    E6420 Overclock Thread

    Hi Josh123. If your 62° is @ idle, then it seems really high. I go to around 57° at load with Orthos at 3.4GHz with 1.57V. What cooling do you use?
