Hi.

I just bought 2GB of OCZ (2X1GB) Platinum memory (OCZP4002GK) for my Asus A8N-E. The memory timings on the package state it can do 2-3-2-5. When I adjust them to this setting (The SPD reads 2.5-3-2-5) and increase the voltage to 2.8, the system won't boot.
However, if I increase my processor (Athlon 3200 Venice E3 core) voltage to 1.475, the system boots fine. Anyone had a similar experience or know why this happens?

I previously had 1GB OCZ gold memory (2-2-2-5 1T) installed and had no such problems. I can run them at 210 MHz FSB with 2-2-2-5 1T timings. I can't even go to 201 MHz on the 2GB at 2-3-2-5. Is this common for 1GB sticks or did I get a bad pair?

Thanks!
