HyperX PC3000 settings? UPDATE - moved a jumper & now things are better!

[alchemize]

Before you do that...try 12.5 x175 and see what you get (or go 11.5, 12, 12.5 to be safe). It can be done!

I always fail at 178+ unless I have loose timings.

alchemize, I did that - here is what happened

11.5 x 175 = runs perfect
12 x 175 = errors in Prime95 after about 10 minutes
11.5 x 178 = runs perfect
11.5 x 180 = errors

All at 6-2-2-2T timings.

Funny my limit is 178MHz too (I still have the jumper at 133MHz) ,& we all have different RAM!
Mine is Crucial PC2700 CL2.5

Keep us posted Wiz

So you are getting very close to my max...sounds like your CPU may be slightly underperforming mine, what week is it? I really think it isn't the RAM, its the Mobo limiting us, as some of the uber-geeks at amdmb.com seem to have made great things happen with the voltage mods.

Yes, I've just read a story about a guy who is chilling his N&S bridges, did all the mods etc & can run at 225 - 240 fsb... Seems like a lot to go through for a little improvement though. Then again, look at me spending how many days just trying to get a few extra mhz

Don't know if you asking me but my Tbred 1700 dates are 0302

 

[Wiz]

Mine is 0307

I just removed the cpu/fsb jumper and now the highest multiplier in bios is 12.5 - I don't plan on going that high with this cpu as I want a higher fsb.

Right now it's running Prime95 at 11.5 x 180. So far so good, 15 minutes with no errors. Timings are still 2T-2-2-6

What is the Max voltage on these RAMs?
