Using an ASUS A7N8X deluxe 333 motherboard, I could not get my new Athlon Mobile 2600 to clock stable over 12.5 X 180. After picking up some Kingston HyperX 512k (KHX4000/512k) I was able to immediately run stable at 12.5 X 200. The old memory was some generic garbage that Frys was selling a year ago, rating it as a 3200 speed stick.

I am noticing that In UT 2004, the program is crashing (vs the computer resetting) and I am wondering if I am setting up the agp video correctly. I am using an original Radeon 9700 Pro with the latest driver package from ATI.


Myocardia, I notice you are using 209 X 12 for your setup. What happens when you use a 12.5 multiplier?

thanks

It could be that your config is unstable too...with OC'ing comes problems...try to relax the cpu X to 12...that seems to work much better...just my 2 cents

No those sticks weren't junk, they were just defective (Cannot run at rated speeds) If you can get it returned I would do so.
