It actually depends on which Gold 4000 you have. Is it the VX you have, you might have to use looser timings, such as cas 2.5,3,4,8 at 250 or so. If it is the Gold 4000 rev 2, 2.8 is plenty enough, but they won't do cas 2 at all.

Can you check which partnumber it is?

It might be the VX then. Check the sticker on the memory when you get it. I'll know for sure then.
