Overclocking memory *The 70$ PNY 2666* kit
3733 stops within a minute. Sample - adjusts Cas to 22 and proceeds. Check if it recovers after 22-22-22-42. 1.35v.
3866 is a NO GO. Tried fail post count 5 and 6 tries. Standard is 3. This gives the PC extra chances, you never know it might post up on one of those attempts! So it's an old trick I use for adventures like these. Tried memory retry button several times. Tried 24-26-26-46 Tried 1.4v / 1.45v NOTHING- all above just fail safe to defaults. 3800mt/s is good to go. Posts right up. 22-24-24-44 1.35v is just dandy. Will tweak from here. Maybe improve the performance a touch, maybe not. So far more voltage does nothing. Maybe even some 3D comparisons. ...Although Im not sure would be good for comparison. 3800 untweaked vs tweaked or just xmp vs 3800 tweaked??
No stability checks performed yet. Base 2667mt/s XMP profile 16-18-18-35 1.20v Spoiler 3800mt/s 22-24-24-44 1.35v TRFC 665 to 605 Dram latency 19 to 16 (scores unchanged, might have left them auto). HT enabled matches the result without HT. Spoiler represents a major boost compared to the 2667mt/s version, even with Cas-22. Not bad for a relatively inexpensive device. The HT toggle helps show the impact of L3 cache, just in case anyone questions it.
