How to manually set RAM timings?

[Kibir_Tidibir]

---

Just bought a 2 x 2gb 10666 (1333MHz) DDR3 G.Skill ram... its timing is suppose to be 7-7-7-21, but its defaulted to 9-9-9-24. According to the seller and the forums that i have read, you have to manually set the timings in bios... here is the complete specs of the ram...

Newegg.com - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL7D-4GBRH



first question....for the "DRAM timing mode" which option do u select? DCT 0, DCT 1 or both?



2nd question... "CAS7-TRP7-TRCD7-TRAS21, memory speed at DDR3 10666, and voltage of memory to 1.6v." mao ni ako na research, but what about the rest? should I just leave them @ auto? and about the voltage, ok ra bah na 1.6v or should i stick to 1.5v? dili na masunog?ahahahahaha



and last question... the option for changing the settings for DRAM voltage is greyed-out... unsaon man nako pag change ana?

THANKS IN ADVANCE...

answer to questions:
1. found this using google.com http://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=129408.0
2. yes leave them at auto or use Everest to get the other timings sa imo memory and input it manually.
3. whats your motherboard model?

thanks for the reply sir... im using an msi 785gm-e51 and my procie is an Athlon x3 440... so i shpuld select "both"? is that right?

help anyone?

set to both para dili naka mag manual-manual sa kada channel then apply the latency value on their respective fields. check ang voltage to configure the ram at the rated speed through the sticker in the memory, pwede pa jud siguro ni nimo mapadagan at a much lower voltage/latency pero be prepared to do a lot of testing then do some stability or memory tests.

kung dili mo post at rated speed, reload CMOS then i-RMA nalang ang memory instead of manually configuring each value then test kay hasol na (provided nga all other settings are stock)

thanks for the reply sir... I'll try that tomorrow kai trabaho sa ko ron...hahahahahaha

I agree on everything sir poldopunk said,...

[Kibir_Tidibir]

sakto bah ni bro? ako g set both sa dct0 ug dct 1... and about the memory speed, i cant find where to manullyset it to 10666...


nya ang voltage option for DRAM is greyed-out... unsaon man nako pag manually set sa voltage ani?huhuhu

[Kibir_Tidibir]

na set na nako ang timings manually.. voltage is set auto... so far so good... wala pa ko ka run ug test... try nako memtest86+ pro d ko sure saon pag gamit... I have to google it first...hahahaha



i have a question though... ang bank cycle time is 33 nya ang command rate kai 1t.. should i leave those as they are?

^^ try daw post ug screenies sa imong SPD tab sa cpu brad para ako ma try ug check..few days nga ga install pod ko sa ako system i was having problem with the timings and stuff but with some help of a friend medyo ok napod ako karon last few days i was running same as yours but my frequency was even way higher kay ddr3 1600 ako and i was just running 573 on my dram frequency which is quite wrong because of my front side bus that was set to 215 nga ang normal diay is 200..pariha ani sa ubos..



but with some help of a friend i was able to run the memory at its peak and of course the board supports it pod..this is what my screenies now on my cpuz..



it is running what it is supposed to..try setting it to auto brad para dili kaayo ka mag problema but first i need your SPD tab screenshot basin makatabang ko nmo..this is my SPD tab below..
