OK..Well, I've been getting sooo frustrated with my memory and its stablity issues...I thought I had it fixed with a voltage increase to 2.7 that took care of my memtest errors...But then recently the errors came back, as well as some Bsods...Upping the voltage to 2.8 didn't help as I only got through 9 minutes of Prime95 until it gave me a fatal error...I was just about to throw in the towel, until I decided to change the command rate back to default of 2T..I have always ran 1T for the extra bandwidth, but I thought maybe with using 2 gigs, it is perhaps to much for the mem controller/mobo to deal with at 1T...Sooo, with fingers crossed, and vdimm back at 2.7, I hit start on prime, and got through 6 hours of torture testing wo a hiccup!!! Sooo, Fyi, any1 having issues with figuring out memory problems, If you use 1T, try the default 2T command and see if that fixes it..For me, i'd rather have a stable running machine, then and extra 1000 in bandwidth sisoft sandra testing...L8r!
