Variations in memory timing nomenclature
Greets...
I've just put together a new machine... and am trying to get the most out of my memory. The motherboard is a DFI Lanparty Ultra 2.. allowing just about every memory setting possible to be altered. Problem is.. the nomenclature on the settings doesn't seem to match what I'm reading in a lot posts/docs/blogs.
I'll post a pic of the BIOS screen l8r, maybe you guys can make more sense of it than me.
I looked up the Voltage settings on the AMD, and they list it as 1.65 plus up to .5v. The memory is lifetime warranted at 2.8v.
I know the memory can be timed faster, but every time I tried to change settings I got beep codes and a BIOS reload for my trouble (even with normal clock settings).
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
