How to lower the frequencies and at the same time lower the voltage a little?
-
Hello, I don't know if you remember me. They have already brought the PC to my house and I am about to configure it.
I remind you that my memories were these:
G.Skill DDR3 Memory - Sniper - 8GB (2x4096) - PC17000 - CL11 - 8GBSR
Specifications
- Type: DDR3
- Chipset: Intel Z68 / Intel P67
- Latency: 11-11-11-30
- Capacity: 8Gb (4Gb x2)
- Speed: DDR3-2133 (PC3 17000)
- Test Voltage: 1.65 Volts
- Height: 40 mm / 1.58 inch
- Registered/Unbuffered: Unbuffered
- Error Checking: Non-ECC
- Warranty: Lifetime
- Intel XMP (Extreme Memory Profile): Yes
My PC is a:
Asus P8Z68 V-PRO/GEN3
i5 2500k & CPU Thermaltake Frío Advanced

Cooler Master Haf 932 Advanced
SSD Intel Sata 2 120 GB + another hard drive of mine
EVGA GTX 570

Uhm they are somewhat strange memories, by lowering the speed you could and should lower the latencies which are more important, but I have doubts about the voltage because it is probably the recommended one, it is all a matter of trying. The first thing is to disable XMP, see how it configures it in auto and if not in manual something typical like 1600 9-9-9 and see if it works with 1.5V.
-
These frequencies are the same as those handled by LGA2011 quad kits, and lowering to 1.5v, as they say, is the voltage at which they natively operate.
-
I'm not sure if they would mount the same chips (probably yes), but there are some Sniper 2x4GB a 1600 that work at Cas 9-9-9 with just 1.5V, so depending on how you want to leave the RAM ratio, you can probably lower both the voltage and the latency.
Your model according to the Gskill website works at 1.60V by default, the ones that go to 1.65V have Cas 9-11-10 (take that already xD) -
The truth is that I find it strange that these memories both rijaws X and Z all come with 1.5 and these 1.6, but well everything is to try and download to see.

Honestly.. I'm still confused with your answers xd.
A friend from the "Obione" forum told me to lower it a little to 18..Mhz and leave it that way. He said there were no problems.
With the data I've given you about the RAM and the motherboard, how do I do it? I'm a beginner -
You have to look for that data in the BIOS, if you can't find it, take some pictures of the bios and post them.
-
I have already taken a photo of the BIOS.
I just need to know how to upload it to the forum xD. Any help? :risitas: -
Upload the photos to a server like Imageshack, insert the url they provide you with the insert image tool of the forum editor.
Best regards.

From there we can start.
By the way, you could also take this opportunity to teach me OC the Sandy Bridge -
Hello..? :cry:
-
Jejeje an EFI, well friend I have not used one of those yet... but surely someone will have an Asus with EFI and will be able to tell you how to touch the memory in that type of BIOS.
-
Does anyone know? jaja :risitas:
-
For me too the BIOS is still in black and white xD, but in the image you have an energy saving profile that is sure to be configurable, you can start there.
-
I invoke the God of EFI to help me….
Naaaa Nobody on the forum really knows???? :risitas: -
Me too, sorry :verguen:
I would start by searching on google for your BIOS model and the options available, and then start tinkering to see what effect it has. Since current computers have thousands of security systems, anything can happen except for you to break it :fumeta:
And as it has always been in the old school, you learn by making mistakes and fixing it yourself :sisi:Best regards and good luck!
