yea man, just put in a search for fx 60 939 on ebay, you can see how much they still go for...go figures...

ebay is funny, I sold a 7950gt ko for 120 the other day...what the hell...
Also, amd 2800+ socket 462 for 50+12 for shipping...go figures.

Default Update

Alright got my Windows installation repaired. Called up MS technical support and they helped me rebuild the licensing service...which got corrupt when tinkering with my RAM . No worries though...I'm back and 100% working great!

However in the down time, I decided I could tinker with my RAM to see what I can do with it WITHOUT bricking another OS (since it was down anyway). So I just dealed with memtest86+ while it was down. Here's what I came up with .

200MHz (DDR400)
2-3-2-5-1T timings (tighter from 2-3-2-6-1T)
2.85 vDimm (up from 2.80v)

Passed memtest86+ just fine with 13+ hours. So I can assume its stable in Windows since it'll pass memtest . Proof is below...I SO HAPPY NOW!

Pio, glad you got your copy of Vista working again

Question for you and probably for the rest of the club. I was under the impression that additional Vdimm was not necessarily required when running lower timings but only when the memory frequency was increased? I've ran several sets of memory at low sub-timings and never had to increase the Vdimm. Just a little curious

Thanks

Btw started stability tests on my new Biostar 6100-939 board. So far I'm doing great at 2957mhz with 1.31volts (OCCT)

In my experience, from the tests I've done, additional VDIMM can be helpful either when tightening the timings or when increasing the RAM frequency. The difficulty is determining (only through testing) how much VDIMM is good for the ICs; sometimes the RAM is responsive to a lot of VDIMM (old-style Winbond BH-5 crave voltage), sometimes the RAM is not (such as modern Infineon-based BE-5/6 or CE-5/6 or Hynix D43s like your F1-3200PHU2s).

Most modern DDR are less tolerant of high VDIMM. Even if the RAM modules are actively cooled, additional voltage only serves to accelerate RAM deterioration, so a lot of care must be used in testing VDIMM increases when overclocking RAM or tightening the timings.

Prego.

Lunch on you next time would be good, though.

Joe, no worries! Actually this time it is my turn :P

Wow I'm surprised Blitz didn't jump on my question...he must be involved in a serious COD4 skirmish

I refused to join him tonight. I've got some work to do on my pets here.
