I've got an AMD Athlon FX-53 (Socket 940) with an ASUS SK8V. I bought 1GB (2x512 paired) of Corsair XMS ECC Registered DDR400 (PC-3200) low latency ram and I can't find any ram that's good enough to pair it with.
Corsair XMS TWINX1024RE-3200LLPT to be exact. Latency is 2-3-2-6.
What RAM can I get that won't increase my latency, is DDR400 and ECC registered?
I ran a test in EVEREST to find a temp sensor and happened to notice that my memory was running at PC-2100. That's when I remembered I had read somewhere that the RAM speed is determined by the weakest link. So I pretty much screwed myself. My read/write speed skyrocketed after removing the Crucial RAM.
It's been so damn long that I'm having trouble finding some DDR400 ECC Reg. low latency sticks. I've searched and searched, but I can't seem to find anything. I came across one that was $500, but that was ridiculous considering I paid $300 for the first set over 5 years ago.
Basically, I need to find some paired RAM and apparently I can't do it by myself. I was hoping someone here might know something I don't. I really don't want to sacrifice my low latency, but 1GB is becoming insufficient quickly. Anyone?
