gskill f2 8500cl5d 6 gigs + asus m4n82 deluxe

[betaboy43]

Hello I am new to the forums and have a question about gskill f2 8500cl5d, I am tring to run 6 gigs of this ram at 1066 and so far all I am able to get to work at that speed is the 2 one gig all settings on auto. I cannot even get the 4 to run at 1066. All the ram runs fine at 800 and have done memtest on all sticks of ram together and seperatley with no errors. I have also tried in all the dim slots and everything runs great. so any info you can give me would be great. Here are the settings I have tried so far:

Which particular set(s) of sticks do you have PIs, PKs....???? Checkl last 2 letters of the sticks model # though if PIs might have a '-B' also

8500

Hi ty for answering,


I cannot find the model number where is it exactly on the ram or the box it cam with?

oops

Sorry here we go,

2 gigs

this is for the 2 gigs,

F2-8500CL5d-2GBK DDR2-1066 PC2-8500 1GBx2 CL5-5-15 2.0v-2.1v: same voltage for both.

This is the link I got totry the settings but will not work at 4 gigs or six gigs

[betaboy43]

S221 F2 8500CL5D $G PK for the 4 gigs

F2-8500CL5D-2GB PK for the 2 gigs

Will both kits work fine seperately?

Thank you

The 2 gigs work at ddr 800 all settings on auto and they will work at 1066 all settings auto but the 4 gigs will only work at ddr 800 not at 1066

It is more difficult to push 2GB modules. Did you test one 2GB module at a time to make sure one is not defective?

Thank you
GSKILL TECH

[betaboy43]

Yes I did try both 1 gig sticks by themselves and they both worked at 800 and at 1066 I did the same for the 2 gig sticks and both worked at ddr 800 but not at 1066

[betaboy43]

I tried both 1 gig sticks by themselves at 800 and 1066 and they both worked fine I also tried the 2, 2 gig sticks by themselves and they only worked at ddr 800 not 1066

[GSKILL TECH]

Right, like I said, you may need to raise CPU-NB Voltage and/or HT Voltage to stabilize DDR2-1066.
Another option is to send the memory in for replacements to see if the new kit works better.

Thank you
GSKILL TECH

[betaboy43]

ok how much should I raise nb to and the ht to?

[GSKILL TECH]

CPU-NB +0.1V and HT Voltage +0.3V

Your CPU may only need one or the other, so you will want to try them independently first.

Thank you
