Right I bought a gig of Crucial DDR2 1066 ram. Had it a little while and then realised it was running at 800mhz rather than 1066. I changed the settings in the bios to the following:
Memclock Value: 533mhz
Cas Latency:5
TRCD:5
TRP:5
TRTP:AUTO
TRAS:15
TRC:AUTO
TWR:AUTO
TRRD:AUTO
TWTR:AUTO
TRFC0:AUTO
TRFC1:AUTO
TRFC2:AUTO
TRFC3:AUTO
Mem OverVoltage: 2.0v (from 1.85)
The specs for the Memory can be found here.
When I check in Everest CPU-ID I get this:
.
Everything seems to look OK to me. But does anyone see any obvious mistakes I have made?
The things I am worried about are the memory voltage as that is not displayed in Everest and the DRAM:FSB ratio of 16:6 (is that correct!?).
Finally I want to buy another gig of ram fairly soon as the Crucial ballistix DDR2-1066 does not work out of the box I don't really see any point in getting it over the DDR2-800 stuff and overclocking it myself by just altering the same bios settings.
Can anyone think of any reason why that might not work, would I not get the same BIOS menu options with DDR2-800!?
Thanks in advance
