I recently built a new computer, and I'm having trouble getting the memory to run at the correct speed on this new machine.
I would consider myself moderate in knowledge in this area, so you might have to explain stuff a little more than your normal forum users, sorry. I wound up learning a lot and doing a ton of research for this new machine and parts.
Here is the computer specs:
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4, Black Edition, 3.2GHz (AM3 Socket)
Mobo: Asus M4A77TD Pro, AM3+, DDR3 (Bios updated to newest bios as of a few days ago)
Currently running Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
The memory I'm trying to get working are the G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) (Model: F3-10666CL7D-4GBRH)
In order to run stable at the moment I have the cards set to 1333MHz, 1.65 volt, and 9,9,9,24 timing.
I would really like to get these to the 1.5v and 7,7,7,21 they are supposed to run at.
I've been reading these forums and I noticed that people were saying that the Northbridge voltage should be 1.5v for it to run properly, but I can NOT figure out how to change that in the Bios.
Here are the screens in my Bios:
CPU Settings:
Memory Settings:
I can't even tell what my NB voltage is for sure, but I am able to get some more info in the AMD Overdrive program. Screens below.
When I have the memory set to 7,7,7,21 and 1.5v it crashes in Prime95 within 20 seconds. Currently at the 9,9,9,24 and 1.65v it has had no problems.
If anyone can help me figure out what I'm missing to get this to run full speed, I would REALLY appreciate the help.
Thank you.
