I put the standard settings in that the OCZ forum recommend and it seems to be memtest stable, but not prime. What I really don't understand is why everytime I make the slightest change it becomes unstable.
Here's what I have now.
3.3v, 2-2-2-5 @ 250 mhz.
If I up the mhz to 252 it immediately failes memtest.
Now if switch it to 3.6v, 2-3-3-8 @ 255 mhz. I doesn't fail in the first two minutes, but it eventually does fail memtest. A little better I guess.
I have two 20 mm fans strapped directly to the sticks and my case flow is pretty good with 4 80mm intakes and 7 80 mm exhaust fans.
Another thing I'm totally confused about is the divider. It doesn't seem to accurately calculate the mhz when i use it. For expample, when I set my HTT to 200 and divider to 5/4 I would assume my RAM would be running at 250 mhz, but it says it's running at 140 in memtest... Even when I use dividers like 9/10 (180) its way off.
The CPU was easy but the RAM's got me really confused. Any advice, links or personal experience with these sticks would be great.
