I just bought PDC28G6400LLQK memory from patriot and it states the that latency should be 4-4-4-12, and run at 2.2 volts, when i do this the computer crashes and i get the blue screen. however if i swich the timings to 5-5-5-12 it does not crash. please help me with this if you can. my motherboard is d975xbx2
yes, i did change the voltage, and then i restared, then i changed one value at a time, no matter which one i changed the system would crash. Im wondering if they went me the wrong ram, or if i am just stupid and doing something wrong.
well i have an intel d975xbx2 so i am using intel bio's, there is an option to overclock memory. It askes me what i would like to set all the settings from 5 down to 4, i change 3 different items, i believe they are cas and stuff like that, i dont know the technical names, anyway i change all of them to 4 and then i leave the last value at 12. if you need more specifics just ask, and ill write them down. but i change everything, or even if i change one at a time it crashes. i also changed the voltage to 2.2 which is fine, the ram seems stable as long as you leave everything at 5
Yes write ALL the values that you have changed please.... there are MANY values that need to be changed an many that need to be left on Auto in order for your system to find stability......
I am not sure which of these values i have changed besides for the overclocking of the fsb and so forth, and some of this info you may not need but ill put it all down here anyway
