Duda OC Asus p5k3 deluxe
-
they talk about the p5k board and I don't know if mine is the same, besides each one has different rams and the truth is that there are terms that I don't understand. As I have already commented, I have ocz at 1800 and according to the manufacturer, it says that it can support 1866 mhz. I would like to be able to reach 1800 and if I have to touch the voltages of the core and the ram, apart from knowing if of all the options that appear in the bios I would have to modify any.
I also wanted to tell you that I have updated the bios of my board to the latest version from the manufacturer, before I had the fsb at 400x9 and the memories at 1333 mhz but with the update if I put it at 400x9 the memories stay at 1300 or already go to 1335 mhz. -

I think I put configurations of a P5K Premiun and a Q6600, I don't remember where, I put two one at 3600 and another at 3400, the bios options are the same, the only thing that changes in your board is the ddr3 ratio, I had ddr2 at 1200 MHz, yours will only be a matter of putting a higher multiplier to the memory, with Asus it is very easy since it tells you the final memory frequency, if you put some screenshots I will tell you what I used to put.

Thanks fjavi I will try some things and see if I can make some captures. My first question was if I could reach the frequency of 1800 mhz because I read it and it said it was possible. And then I had another problem that before I had them at 400x9 1333 mhz clocked at 3.2ghz I think, but I have updated the bios and now everything changes (the multiplier, the frequency etc.) now it doesn't let me 1333 and goes from 1330 to 1335 mhz and I don't understand why.

400x9 would be 3600, you would have 400x8, then if you put fsb to 400 I think it would give you 800 MHz memory, but it could also give you 1600 with a higher memory multiplier, if you put the fsb strap on auto it will give you many options to put the memory at a frequency that interests you, you would have to choose a minimum of 2:1 that is memory at double the frequency of the fsb, in reality 1:1 is fsb at 400 and ddr at 800, so 2:1 would be memory at 1600 and fsb at 400.
But that puts the fsb strap on auto and it will give you many options to find the frequency that interests you for your ddr3, which with a high multiplier and frequency the memory needs more voltage, also the NB, you can put fsb at 400, fsb strap auto and then look at what frequency options it allows you. look at one of mine from the P5K Premium but with an E6700.

you can change fsb strap auto and dram frequency choose one that suits you but that after raising fsb frequency because when you raise fsb it raises the memory frequency.This is a Rampage but the bios is similar and it had the fsb strap auto, with Q6600 at 3400. I have ddr2 at 1210 I think so you can look for a higher frequency for ddr3.

That without forgetting that ddr3 has higher latencies, that is according to how the modules are, mine go to 5-5-5-15 yours should go at least to 7-7-7, even 8-8-8, the higher the frequency the more voltage it asks for and even more if you have low latency.

Thanks again fjavi I'll try it out and see how it goes and let you know. Bye for now.

well it seems that now it is stable at 400x9 and the memories at 1600mhz with 2.0 voltage.
Thanks to all for the help. -

Thanks to everyone for the help.2v to the memory? because to the CPU it will be wild, I even think it should hold with less voltage.

what voltage do I put on the memory and the cpu?

@M@rkos13:
what voltage should I put on the memory and the CPU?
Don't put more than 1.45v on the CPU. I'm talking about voltage to maintain that OC for daily use, to pass some benchmark if you could ever put something more, but the CPU's VID will greatly influence it. If it's low, it's easy to keep it with 1.35v. If it's a bad VID, you'll need to give more voltage. Enable loadline Calibration.
The memory, depending on what they are, you can look at the label that usually comes attached or you can look at that model on the manufacturer's page. It will tell you frequency, voltage and latency. For 1600, it shouldn't ask for more than 1.80v or 1.85v maximum. In new platforms, DDR3 is usually not exceeded 1.65v even for 2400mhz memory, but in 775 it was common to put more voltage. It was a greener DDR3 than the current one and I suppose that the platform couldn't treat the memory like the current ones.
But put what the manufacturer recommends or a little more.
