Ga-ma785g-ud3h

What is the proper bios settings for GA-MA785G-UD3H with 4x F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK?
I cannot get 1066mhz. My processor is AMD Phenom IIx4 965.
Thanks

5-5-5-15 are the timings for 1066 2v (or 2.1v if a tad unstable, can bump a bit more if neccesary)

This kit only has 2 sticks in it, if you're using 4 (aka 2 packs) that could cause an issue as unmatched sets aren't guaranteed to work together. Make sure if you can tell which are pairs to use the pairs on the same channel(same colored slots, not beside eachother), also using 4 sticks may put a little stress on your memory controller, you may need to bump its voltage some as well.

You can try raising the CPU-NB and HT Voltage to see if you can stabilize it. It will be very stressful for the memory controller.

Instead, it is advised to set the RAM to DDR2-800, timings tCL 4 - tRCD 4 - tRP 4 - tRAS 12, DRAM Voltage 2.0V

This will allow the system to perform just as fast without extreme stress on the CPU.

Keep us posted on the result.

Thank you

Is working with the settings you suggested! Stable, just not as quick as I thought.

Your setup isn't "new car fast" but should still be a decent rig. I wonder how old your hard drive is? That seems to be the Slowest thing in most computers anymore.
