Hello everyone :wavey:

I'm 26 and generally geeky :) I love my computers, cars, sports and girlfriend. I am currently trying to release the full potential of my rig but it is being annoying. I have owned Apples and IBM-compatibles and love them both. My only frustration is Apples pricing choices as I would love one a bit more shiny.

I hope to help you guys if i can and hope you can help me become less frustrated with my setup. I'm thinking about watercooling for my next project but would like to push my CPU just a little further given I have really tried to help airflow.

Hey, and welcome to the forums mate. :) One question, why are you running the RAM at such low speeds and odd timings? :P
 
Well now i've been fiddling anyway thats changed slightly :D

Timings are 5-5-5-15-2T but the MHz is the same as that is stock voltages if i go to 2.2V it should do 1066MHz as standard but the system doesn't boot for some reason. Just one of my annoyances :)
 
Watcha Matey:wavey: I must admit the first thing that struck me was your memory timings, no doubt everyone who reads this post will think the same unles you "edit " it (hint)

Any way a post in the memory section should help you get it sorted. ;)
 
Hi mate, post in the relevant section as said above, (which you've probably done by now), and our excellent members are sure to help ya
