Anybody try Mushkin rev3 133mhz sdram on an Abit Bh6 motherboard?

I currently have one stick of Corsair 128 mb sdram pc100 in bank 3. It's there for overclocking stability. I put the two new Mushkin 133mhz sdram in banks 1 and 2. There is a problem when all three sticks are used. I've tested all three together and I get an address error. However, when I test each one separately in bank 3, there are no errors. I guess pc100 sdram doesn't work with pc133 sdram or the banks work differently with single or double sided dimms...

Yes, the BH6 is picky about RAM. I just went through a bit of this too recently. Have you tried testing the DIMMs in different order? I couldn't get 3 micron 8E's working together, I had to replace on of them with a generic PC-133 DIMM. It's working now, but it took a bit to figure it out.

These boards are indeed picky. I've run 128MB Crucial 8E in all three slots on mine with no issues. But it gave me beep codes when I had a 128MB in one slot and a 64MB in another.

>I have 2pc's 128 MB MUSHKIN w/SIEMENS Infineon PC133 @ cas 222 On my BH-6 V1.01
>Some of the BH-6's like mine don't like the center memory slot. Try leaving your PC100 Ram out and installing your PC133's in slot 1 and 3. Your Mushkin Ram will do cas 222@133FSB unless you bought the Mushkin Basic PC133 Ram.

Interesting how the new Mushkin Revision 3 memoru uses 7.5ns Infineon memory. I would think Rev. 3 would be faster in ns compared to Rev. 2. (Mosel Vitalic 7ns vs Infineon 7.5ns) I'm interested in seeing Rev. 3's benchmark results.
