I recently had some troubles getting my DFI UltraLanparty-D to boot properly in dual channel configuration using Mushkin CL2 Blue. I could not get it to get past windows login. I changed my CPC setting to 'disable' to set my ram to 2T timing. When I did that, I could get to windows and do everything as I normally could. I have tried various timings and still no luck getting stable using 1T. Voltage has been bumped to 2.9v but I don't know if I should push the voltage on this anymore.
I check DI street but got no solid answers or reccomendations.
I tried some OCZ VX gold PC3200 and I couldn't use this at all. Even with recommended timings for this ram I got instant reboots after the POST on all settings. :shocked:

Is there any large benefit to using 1T timing as opposed to 2T?
I am using the above mentioned board with the latest bios.
3500 Clawhammer cpu
2x512 Mushkin CL2 blue, 200mhz @ 2.9v

have you tried Muckers settings?

edit-btw zebo has/had a thread somewhere on the difference of 1t and 2t and in most real world it means 1-3%.

I'll give it a whirl with his settings. Similar ram, so I hope to get similar results.
Without taking off the heatsinks on the ram, is there anyway to tell what type of modules are on the ram?
