supertalent W1800UX2GP safe voltage limit?

[Kal80]

Hi everyone I just bought a new pair of DDR 3 supertalent, project x series (W1800UX2GP)

http://forums.anandtech.com/ca...tid=83&flcache=7657224

Its default mem voltage is 2.0v but I would like to know how much I can increase it to a safe level. I was thinking that I might have to increase is to 2.11 to achieve my overclock.

I ve had a look at your link but there seems to be no mention of mem voltages. I might email supertalent and find out how much higher they can go beyond 2.0v Its a shame it is not mentioned on their website like OCZ do. Thanks for your help anyway.

Considering default DDR3 vdimm is 1.5v, i wouldn't be very keen on pumping more than 2.0v into it.
That's already a LOT more than default.

Yeah I been thinking now that anything over 2.0v might kill it even though its default vdimm is 2.0v thanks for your help.

You could of bought the 1600X2G7 for cheaper and they clock the same as the 1800 and 2000

I bought it here http://www.scan.co.uk/Products...sp?WebProductID=804300 and has drop from about £300 to £165, and I will be selling my OCZ platinum 1300MHz 7-7-7-21 on ebay so I should make my money back and I dont have to worry about overclocking from 1600 to 1800MHz

the memory difference is the same, the money you spent initially on the memory is more so if you don't mind spending more money, more power to you

Yeah fair enough I think I saved money anyway like I said it was a lot more expensive a few months ago and selling my OCZ mem as well I dont think I will worry too much and there is a potential to get more of a overclock with the 1800 instead of the 1600, maybe I could go beyond 2000MHz that the 1600Mhz cant do I have to do some research and muck about for myself. Thanks for the kind help.

just tryin to help you save money

good luck

As long as you keep the memory cool ( fan over the DIMMs obviously ) you may pump the voltage up to 2.2V and still be safe.
Without a fan, I wouldn't go over 1.8V for 24/7.

P.S. Those voltages are for Micron D9GTR & D9GTS kits like the ones in the review
