GA-8KNXP... Which memory???
I'm thinking of making the leap again... Last time with the GA-8IHXP and it
had memory issues... Now I'm looking at the 8KNXP and it appears to have issues as well... I read the Kingston 3500 is the way to go and that Corsair is not... Is that correct??? What other brands should be considered? LR |

LR I have the GA-8IK1100, and started off with a couple Corsair XMS 256 MB sticks for a total of 512 MB. It ran okay, and I even got it up to 440 mhz in dual-channel mode. (this was PC3200 stuff) However, I succumbed to the 'faster is better' theory, and bought some Geil PC3700, 256MB sticks. I'm now running them at 466mhz in dual channel mode ... amazing. Just works out great with my FSB set to 232 mhz on my P4 2.6 800mhz cpu, as I can run over 3ghz and memory keeps up nicely. |

I am running 2 512MB sticks of Corsair TWINX1024-3200LLPT in my GA-8KNXP
UKTRA and it is running perfectly. All I did was increase the memory voltage by 0.2 volts. ================== Lyle Rhodes wrote: I know there has been allot of things written about the memory problems with this but could someone give me a success story?

LR How about using regular memory. I have only seen complaints about memory when people try special or high speed memory. I have used this board with a 2.53G 533 & 2 512 DDR 333 regular Crucial memory-NO PROBLEMS, even OC. Now have 2.8G 800 with 2 DDR 400 512 sticks GEIL-NO PROBLEMS. I heard of many complaints with Kingston, so I have never bought it. Just my $0.02. |
