ARES F3-2133C9D-8GAB+AMD Phenom II GA-MA790XT-UD4P

So, this memories will work with AMD platform ?
Nowadays this mobo is working with F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ (2Gx2) (@ 1333-9-9-9-24-1T) with a phenomII X4 965. My local reseller only have this model.

Generally speaking most 965 rev 3C CPUs can carry 1600 sticks and a few higher, this is a 2133 set, which would prob work at 1600, maybe a bit faster, and you would prob want to tighten the timings to increase performance

I´ve read in internet that this modules doesn´t work good in low latency even in low frequency. My local reseller tells me that F3-1600C9D-8GAB will be available next week. Any suggestion for better compatibility?

Think that 1600 Ares set would be a good match, and if you are using an aftermarket CPU cooler the Ares are a low profile which can come in handy

I´ve bought Ares F3-1600C9D-8GAB and it´s working perfectly @ 1600-9-9-9-24-2T.

Yesterday i´ve got one restart and one BSOD. So, i´ll try to lower the frequency, because in other post i´ve realize that this processor is more stable in 1333 (http://www.gskill.us/forum/showthread.php?t=8839).

That or at 1600, increase the CPU/NB voltage a tad (+ 0.05 to + 0.075 or so) this will will help out the MC (Memory Controller)

Make sure you have the latest BIOS and use this guide:

The memory should work fine with the proper configuration in BIOS.

Thank you

I prefer not deal with voltages! Now i've put the memories at 1333-8-8-8-24-1T. Run OCCT CPU for 3h and OCCT power supply for 1h. For me is stable. Let's wait while to confirm.

Sounds good and other than bandwidth, 1333 at 1T is near same performance as 1600 2T
