GA-K8N Ultra-9 - Memory Speed Problem
Hi My motherboard is GA-K8N Ultra-9 with a Athlon 64(Venice)3500 and I am trying to run 2x Corsair (TWINX1024-3200C2PT)DDR400, that's 4 matching 512 modules. The problem is since I added the extra 2 modules the speed has gone from 400 to 333 in the BIOS. Can you help? Thanks -- C H A L K I E |

The problem is since I added the extra 2 modules the speed has gone from 400 to 333 in the BIOS. Can you help? Here's how you can manually set the DRAM speed- 1. Enter BIOS, then press control and F1 simultaneously. That will enter the "hidden advanced options" (see small print mid-page 30 of the user's manual). 2. DRAM CONFIG 3. Set Timing mode to "manual". 4. Set Memclock index value to 200. In my case I had to set the CAS to 3 in order to get stability since I was mixing CAS 2.5 and 3.0 sticks. If you're not sure of the proper CAS setting you can use Sandra or AIDA32 to check. This should work for you. Gerald Todd |
