Cheers. Thats pretty awesome ram you have though. But thats obvious, its ballistix!

And to think I almost went with OCZ!

I think your PC2/8500 should be able to push very similar timings/bus as they are the same ICs.

Try giving your MCH a little more voltage. I was having RAM/HDD errors thinking that I had a bad component until I upped the volts on the chipset.

I'm curious to know how ravin is using those timings without generating errors in memtest at that speed. I know there are some general rules governing the numbers used, but the 6 seems out of place for some reason. I could be wrong, but I have to go look now. The fourth number usually can't be lower than two particular numbers before it or it may generate errors. Bah I can't remember. I shall return.

Well, here are my specs

Running 2x1GB stix
DDR2 PC6400-800Mhz.
Currently running @ 1095Mhz.
with 5-5-5-15-2t timings
and Vdimm is @ 2.3v

Haven't tried to go much further with them yet, I'm pretty satisfied with them at the current speed.
I'll probably burn these up as quick as I did my G.Skill but oh well, then again the Ballistix seem to be handling that speed and voltage a lot better then my HZ's did.

JdGreen92086

Type of Crucial Ballistix: (DDR2, PC 6400)
Running Frequency: (800Mhz etc)
Timings: (4-4-4-12 - 2T)
Voltage: (2.2v)
Memory Size: 2GB (2 * 1GB etc)

Love these sticks!!

khurios2000

a couple of ballistix PC5300 1GB (single stick).
running stable 5-5-5-15 540Mhz 1.975v

rx7racer

Dang, those are some killer timings you got there Ravin, I can't seem to get above around 980Mhz with anything below my current timings.

Criss

just how fast did you burn out HZ's? And about how long are you expecting the Ballistix to last at 2.3v?
