i wouldnt say its as good as the ocz stuff, but it is cheaper and very good stuff

Irishpimpdude · 22-11-2005 06:38PM

lol ok then well hopefully it does the job

savemejebus · 22-11-2005 06:43PM

with the saving you made on that ram :shakes fist:, you could consider upping your processor to the opty 146. That way you could run your machine at 2.5ghz without using a divider, as opposed to (i think) 2.25 with the opty 144

*note I could be talking out my arse as i'm rather new to overclocking

Irishpimpdude · 22-11-2005 07:00PM

i was gonna order the 146 but the experts

said there was no point lol!

commited · 22-11-2005 07:08PM

There is a point to the 146, it's just not as much of a bargain as the 144

Irishpimpdude · 22-11-2005 07:34PM

Thanks Commited

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 08:41PM

I just got the ram and put it in my p4 system for the moment anyone know how i can oc it? its a p4 2.6ghz with a asus p4s800 mobo

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:03PM

Search thru the BIOS for FSB adjustment

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:35PM

There is nothing about fsb adjustment this is all i could find sorry for crappy quality

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:36PM

Memory frequency is your friend

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:39PM

what should i set it too? lol as u know im new to overclocking

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:40PM

Bump it up 2mhz at a time from std restarting each time till you get it so that the machine aint crashing when u restart. This will take time. Lots of time.

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:42PM

I can't do that it has set amounts

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:43PM

Such as..

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:49PM

Ok so 400mhz was the most i could set it as... and i set it to that and it seems to work fine would that be any better?

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:51PM

Hmmm 400mhz is standard ya see...

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:52PM

oo well its a big jump from 2*256mb pcs2100 sticks of unbranded lol!

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 09:53PM

You were running pc2100??
Hold on..
Download cpuz and post up a screen shout of what is says.

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 09:58PM

lol thats what i used to have and one sec mate.

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 10:01PM

Irishpimpdude · 23-11-2005 10:05PM

Here ya go... is this ok or what?

masteroftherealm · 23-11-2005 10:07PM

Yup ok back into the bios and set chip speed to manual. Then see how far the memory freqency will go then.
