P4P800-E Deluxe: BIOS Chipset settings
Hi
I've got an Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz Northwood, 2 Kingston DDR-SDRAM PC3200 à MBytes CPU-Z reports: Timings table Frequency (MHz) 166 200 CAS# 2.0 2.5 RAS# to CAS# delay 3 3 RAS# Precharge 3 3 TRAS# 7 8 The Chipset settings are 'Auto'. Should I set the settings 'Manual'? TIA p |

Looks like you have a problem Peter, they should be the same for both memory
sticks. I would manuallt set them to the settings on the right and see if that works. With the Northwood P4 they should both be at 200Mhz. "Peter Wagner" wrote in message ...

No, all is allright.
The data of CPU-Z should understand in this way: With 166 MHz the Kingston RAM runs with 2/3/3/7 and with 200 MHz the Kingston RAM runs with 2.5/3/3/8. That's O.K and logical! CPU-Z reports the same for my MDT-RAM. BTW I also use the 'Auto'-settings without any problems - my system with a P4P800 is rock stable. "Pete D" wrote in message ...

Will that still run in dual mode properly?

Yes, of course.

Mine is rock stable too, but can 'Auto' recognize the lowest values or will it be better, one keys in lower values? p |

Of course? Shouldn't they be matched?

Since your machine uses a clock speed of 200 Mhz (unless you overclock), you should use the values stated for that speed: 2.5/3/3/8. Take a look at the Tab Memory in CPU-Z, which tells you the timing your memory actually uses (as opposed to the timing it *should* use, which you can see in the Tab SPD, which is the one you reported here). If the timing you see here is slower then 2.5/3/3/8, you can try setting the timing manually. Otherwise just use Auto. Don't forget to test the memory thoroughly though, for instance with memtest86, if you decide to change the settings! Mine ran at 2.5/4/4/8 using Auto setting, even though the RAM's SPD said it should work at 2/3/3/6, so I set those values manually. Machine has been rock solid at this setting for months now. Wim |

But Kingston says: HyperX Features: Description Settings 400MHz (PC3200) 2-3-2-6-1 (CAS Latency 2) What does this means? Correlates this to 2/3/2/6/1? But I think 1 instead of 8 can't be right?! What is the correct order of this numbers? In an other paper says Kingston: Programmable Burst length (2, 4, 8) Programmable Burst type (sequential & interleave) Timing Reference: 2-3-2-6-1 at +2.6V Otherwise just use Auto. Don't forget to test the memory thoroughly though, for instance with memtest86, if you decide to change the settings!
