Hi @ all.

First of all, i'm glad to see that there is an (unofficial) support forum for G.e.I.L. memory.

I hope someone can help me.

First my system.

Board : MSI P45 Platinum link
Mem : DDR2 Ultra Plus Dual Channel kit link
CPU : Intel Q6600 link
Gra : NVidia 9800 GTX+

Now the problem.

I testet the memory with several settings, but the Memtest don't pass all tests. Here some settings i tryed.

Ram Voltage : 2.2V, 2.304V , 2.4V
Ram Freq: 800 and 1064 or 1067 (both with FSB/DRAm Rotation 1:2.0)
Latency: CAS | TRCD | TRP | TRAS | TRFC | TWR | TWTR | TRRD| TRTP
->Auto:....5...|...5....|...5...|..14...|..23...|..6....|...3....|...3...|3
->Man:.....5...|...5....|...5...|..15...|->Auto

I tested all combination, but it don't work.

Maybe someone has the same board an ram and can tell me his settings.

Thx

Hello TF.

1 GB or 2GB stix?
Download CPU-Z and post a screenshot of the SPD TAB.

Hi,

2x2Gb

[chuck4456]

OKEEDOKEE.
Set the FSB to 267.
DRAM Ratio to 800 (+/-).
Set the memory modules timings to 4-5-5-13. Use a Refresh Cycle (tRFC) of 52 if you have that option.
Use 2.2V DRAM Voltage.
Run MEMTEST a few passes and report back with your results.

Hi,

Memtest+ 2.81 from Opensuse live disk passes 10 times. ( runnig the whole night ).

Microsoft Windows Memory Diagnostic faild at Test 7 named MATS+ (cach disabled).
It expected 00000000, but gets 00000020.

OK.
Do it all again except this time, do it with one stick at a time.
Could be a faulty module.

Sorry for beeing late, but I had no time to check this.

You are right. One of the sticks couses this error. I wonder why the other was quiet slow at this tests, but it passes.
I think I had to buy new Memory.

Someone an idea, wich memory i have to prefer with this board.

Thx for help.

P.s.: How do you get the Timing ( 4-5-5-13 ). G.e.i.L says 5-5-5-15.

Contact your local GeIL RMA Squad and get yourself a replacement set.
I'm just going by the timings on the SPD Tab.

Are you able to bump the voltage of the ram any more?

If so, I would like you to try that single bad stick at 2.3 / 2.4v

According to the specs page, 2.2v is the min.


But yeah, youll want to RMA them, as a set.
