TwinMOS PC3200, winbond BH-5 chips
 

Tought I had a few good pieces of ram. Guess I was mistaking.

They won't even run dual channel DDR at default speeds. (200MHz DDR, 2.5-3-3-8) without memory errors, and serious windows stability problems.
At 190MHz 2.5-3-3-8 it appears to run fine.

It might be the chipset too, increasing the Vdimm won't work. So it might be the Northbridge. (Epox 8RDA+). It is actively cooled, with stock cooler moved to SB, and some big HS taped to the
MOSFETS and regulators

Prime95 is however running happily at 190*11.5 @ 1.75 Vcore.
This is a JIUHB 1800+ with zalman CNPS 7000.
Case temp 22°C, CPU temp 33°C.

PC didn't boot 12.5 * 190 @ 1.7V core, so I'm trying smaller steps now.
It can do better.

192 * 11.5 is the stable speed.

maybe if I burn it in a week or so. it might improve.

Water will definitly bring this baby to even greater heights.

TwinMOS PC2700 doing 400 MHz FSB here @ 3/3/2/CAS 2.5

so yours should get higher I think

I've tried default at 2.77V, runs at 2.70 according to bios.

I'm not happy with it having to do 2.9V at default settings.

maybe I've got to up the voltage on the NB, but that's another story.

zelfde moederbord, zelfde ram

It's the chipset, trust me. :)

Updated bios, it worked for the memory.
It could run stable @ 200MHz 2.5-3-3-8.
2.5-3-2-7 was possible too, but then I noticed another problem.

My network won't work anymore (still not, love backup PC's)
I've tried everything short of reinstalling windows (which is what I'm doing ATM) adn the damn thing won't work. Not even on default 1800+ setting.

I was planning on wasting some time with fsb/mem/cpu settings. But this isn't quite how I planed my weekend.

------edit------
Just restored a fresh image, still not working.
:bash: This is really starting to look like RMA time :bash:


--------edit 2-----------
Step 1: Install windows.
Step 2: Install nForce drivers.
Step 3: Find out that the damn **** STILL ain't working.
Step 4: Censored, rated M for violence and language.

network cable plugged in???:^D

sorry no joking if it's onboard lan, maybe you have to reïnstal it again because of your bios update

Yea something like this can certainly phuck your weekend up

Tried several cables, several ports on my switch and LAN is enabled in bios.
I've reinstalled the drivers, then reinstalled windows, did't work.

It can get a DHCP IP address somehow, it sees that the cable is plugged in, but I can't even ping 192.168.0.1 (and that's the DHCP server)

I removed and dusted the mobo, replaced it, and still no good.


Hey look at the brigt side, my room did need an urgent cleanup...

Swapped the modo, and did some on site testing.
Only difference, next to the mobo off course, is the cooler, HCC-001 from coolermaster.

2200MHz memtest stable @ 1.7V (don't have windows) 11*200
memory CL 2-2-2-6, no errors for 3 passes, @ 2.9V

It's the lasteµs version of the mobo too.
Oh yea, can't test network here either, might still screw up my evening.

---edit---
spelling, keyboard here needs replacement.

nice performance at first sight!

I'm soundproofing my case ATM, adding some switches so that I can increase fan speeds. (12-7-0)
AND I got a digicam for a couple of days.

expect pics of my rig, my room and me soon.
(Warning to sensitive readers, shocking images)

especially those 2 last categories :p

Maybe you can find the solution to your network problem here. Sometimes there are problems with the Onboard Lan after flashing the bios.

Got it swapped out, and it's fixed now apparently.

This and the board goed MUCH better.
200 * 11, CL2-2-2-6, Vdimm: 2.9V, Vcore: 1.7V

Installs windows pretty stable. 205MHz, and the ram fails art these settings.
I like it this way.
