aye, I tried 2-2-2-5-1T, 2-3-2-5-1T, 2-3-3-8-2T etc etc.. all without much diff. the ram is rated for 2-2-2-5-1T, none of those settings made much of a difference, I could still never get the clockrate of the CPU back up to it's default of 12X
I plan to keep the boards tho, and build two more systems with them, tho with lesser CPU's and memory. as far as I know the physical boards are fine though I did hear mention of a revision 2 possibility? Was that just going to be bios changes or an actual physical change perhaps? Anyone know?
mmmnope, dont think so, I set the memV everywhere from 2.6 to 2.75 and the vcore everywhere from 1.4 to 1.875, and itworked worse the higher I set the V's! I was actually MOST stable with mem at 2.6 and vcore at 1.4!
Heres my story with the A8N-SLI ... I bought two of them, making dual machines for me and my wife, to be identical :) FX-53 chip, and hyperx 2-2-2-5-1T PC3200 ram. eVGA 6800 ultra's. (one each, cant afford 2 quite yet :)
They both installed fine, booted up fine, installed windows fine...
forgot to mention, I've tried swapping everything on both PC's with very little effect, including the FX-53, and even used some older ddr400 ram I have in other pc's that have been running for over a year now. pared the system down to its barest minimum too, (removed the ultra and put in an...
