best settings for p4c800-e deluxe

[Warlord Shigs]

right got my ram upto 270fsb and im gettin errors in prime with vdimm @ 3.15 (lowest my mobo can go) i think it may b down 2 my chipset settings on the dram idle timer and dram refresh rate. which settings are best for my asus p4c800-e deluxe? atm have idle set at infinate and refresh set at 15.6u.

15.6u for 1GB, halve it for 512MB.

ty m8 . wat about the dram idle? leave it as infinate? also wat happend 2 ur mach2 section on ur website??

if youre getting 3.15V then you havent set the vr correctly for your board

lowest should be 3.05 so that you can go as high as 3.35v with 2.85V if your PSU +3 can take it...

best settings for mem performance with the P4C800E

PAM enabled

Turbo mode

2 2 2 5

8

infinite

64ìs

youre done....my EB and other sticks cant cope with a few settings...

Dodgy mod? Poor soldering connects?

long wire from the ic leg to vr?

bad grounding?

try doing some live measurements with ur mod in place to see if there are any nasty spikes..

Hey Warlord what about 2 gigs of ram?

your right on the money with what you posted for one gig and half of a gig

thanks WrecKer

 

[WrecKer]

how about 2 gigs of ram ?

nah, 1GB does the job nicely - I thought that 2GB puts even more stress on the chipset. Those chipsets begin to limit around 280MHz if I remember right. I think I got mine to 286MHz, but people have taken them further with more volts etc...
