Try these for optimizing your memory

tWR..........................6..................4-5
tRFC.........................54..................5 2-58

Driving Strength Profiles
Driving Strength ............................ 1066

Channel A
Static tRead Value.........................:[Auto] Set 7-8 (7 may not boot at that FSB) If you switch to D memory multi's you will need to use 8-9 on these
tRD Phase0 Adjustment...................:Auto

tRD Phase3 Adjustment..................:Auto
Trd2rd(Different Rank)....................:Auto
Twr2wr(Different Rank)...................:Auto

Dimm1 Clock Skew Control...............:Auto ps
Dimm2 Clock Skew Control...............:Auto ps

Channel B
Static tRead Value.........................:[Auto] << Set 7-8 (7 may not boot at that FSB)


For your references, do not set Normal. Please set those to Auto, all of them

MCH Core can be less, 1.24-1.26 probably.

And Vtt cam be less, if you switch to D memory multipliers you should be able to use less MCH Core and Vtt

You memory is rated 1150 why not use the 2.66D multiplier?

Re: Another Q9550 + EP45-UD3R Oveclocking.

Vtt is CPU termination.

Hello


NOTE I use CHANNEL B because my memory heatsik is very large

I have tried use 2.66D (1133) with

But It crasch and start with default settings.

Thanks

Re: Another Q9550 + EP45-UD3R Oveclocking.

Try tRD 9 instead of 8.

Also use driving strength 1066 instead of 1200.

You may need to use D memory multipliers instead of B

Could you post a screen capture of EasyTune -> Tuner -> Advanced -> voltage tab? I'd like to see what The reference values are set to with normal settings.
You don't have 0.76 values for the references because your VTT is 1.28v, you need to set them when VTT is set to 1.2v. Anyway leave them on auto unless you change them.

You mean slots 2 & 4, or slots 3 & 4?
Slots 2 & 4 are still channels A and B.

Slots 2 & 4 are still channels A and B.

I use red slots for memory (2 & 4 i think)

Re: Another Q9550 + EP45-UD3R Oveclocking.

In your template some of the references were set to normal and I'd like to know what they are actually set to.

Where I set Normal I change and I set AUTO
