Memory Speed Wrong In Cpu-z I have ddr533

Sorry for the double post didnt mean to do that
WELL I finally got my better memory to see how far I can push my prescott but only thing is my memory speed is showing up as pc3200 in cpu-z I am running in dual channel and yes I do have one in each slot (1 and 3). Can any one help on this issuse and what setting do I set it to in the bios auto?any help would be great. and what would be good timings for this memory.

UnderTheSun,
I can run 3-4-3-7 with SPD set manually with PAT=normal(Disable) and read the same on CPUZ using Bios 3.6, are you always get 3-4-4-8 wiht SPD setting manually?
I dont have this problem with FSB above 250 mHz (testing with CC I can reach FSB 261 mHz)
On what FSB did you have CAS set to 2.5 on Bios, since even I set it manually on bios with CAS value 2.5 the CPUZ is always read 3 with PAT=normal(disable).
Funny thing with this mobo CAS value always set to 2.5 if I turn PAT=Fast (Fast, Turbo and Ultra Turbo always have the same memory speed using memtest86+) and the bad things is I loose the CAS value 3 in Bios so I need to reflash the bios.
I cannot change the CAS value to 2.5 with this mobo as shown on the following link,
http://www.anandtech.com/memory/showdoc.html?i=1867
I would like to try OCZ PC3700 Rev.2 EL Gold Edition which in my opinion working best with this 'P' series regarding DOT and manual OCing as shown in the following link,
http://www.anandtech.com/memory/showdoc.html?i=1940
According to OCZ office this DDR is discontinued so I need to find it on the online store and hope can get it.
So finally I think we need to wait for the newer bios of the 'P' series.

Memory Speed loss with CPU upgrade 2.6 - 3.0

I have a n 875P Neo board with 2 banks 512m DDR400
I have just upgraded my cpu from 2.6G (800 FSB) to 3.0G (800FSB)
My BIOS is ver 1.8 (8/9/ 2003)
I have found that my memory speed timings have dropped by 30% since the upgrade. Will I get better results if I update my bios to ver 2.0 (the latest bios)??
Sysoft Sandra Memory Benchmark shows to memory timings to be about 25% lower than expected
Can anyone help??
Thanks
M Miller

The 875P Neo and 865PE Neo2 boards are kissing cousins They have a lot in common.
It would help if you create a signature and put all your hardware information in it. Things like what type of video card and what type of ram all have an impact on what performance modes you can operate under. See the Rules at the top for what to include and how to do it.
You should also read P4 Neo Unofficial Guide and Moan Guide.

Memory speed of fx 5200 cards

I can't find out detailed spec of MSI's fx 5200 cards:
- does any of these have 64-bit memory interface (as some 5200 cards do)?
- what is speed of cpu and memory
For instance, what's difference between FX5200-TD64 and FX5200-T64? First one has dvi out, cooler fan and larger board, but that's not what interests me - I would like to know differences in cpu and memory speeds.
Some benchmark numbers would be nice too, at least 3D Mark 2001.

I'm looking for budget card and I know what I can expect from that. You're right, memory speeds are not crucial here.
However, some fx 5200 have 64-bit memory interface (I know for some Gainward cards) which makes HUGE difference, even for low budget cards. Difference is something like 3500 vs 7000 points in 3D Mark 2001.
I would be satisfied with normal 5200 performance (I'm upgrading from MX400), but not with cripled one (64-bit), and I don't know whether FX5200-TD64 and FX5200-T64 have 64 or 128 bit memory bus.

Memory speed and graphic card slot

Hi,
I have just built a system with a P67A-GD65 B3 board, everything works fine, but while double-checking on the system's specs and performances I came across two weird issues:
- I have 2 x G-Skill F3-17000CL7-2GBXHD RAM sticks at 2133MHz, I have enabled XMP in the BIOS (with leaving all other settings in automatic mode) and the BIOS indicates the RAM is running at 2133MHz, 7-10-7-27, however, when I run the MSI Control Center (latest version of the app) it says on the home screen of this app that my RAM is detected as "DDR3-1600 (800MHz)" in the speed field. I also ran CPU-Z and it says there that my DRAM frequency is 1064.4 MHz (the FSB:DRAM value is "1:8"), with the 7-10-7-27 timings values. Which one should I believe? The WEI gives a score of 7.9 for my memory which is ok, and I am not running in any performance issue nor I am looking to do any overclocking, but I just want to make sure that I am making the best out of my money and that I am using the RAM as it is supposed to be used... Can someone shed some light here?
- I have installed my graphic car on the slot that is the furthest possible from the CPU as I believe they both generate quite some heat and so they should be as far away as possible from eachother. In CPU-Z I have a link width for the graphic interface of "x8" with max supported of "x16". Is this something that is related to the slot and should I move the card to the slot closer to the CPU? Or is this something else? Is there a setting in the BIOS maybe that can address this?
Thanks!

Both are correct information. The detected '1600MHz' is actually the factory stock speed from the IC chip of the RAMs. The readings of "1064.4MHz" is the running speed that the RAM is currently on so for DDR calculation, you have to multiple 1064.4MHz by 2 to get 2133MHz.
The reasons for 2 readings to be detected is due to your RAM being factory overclocked by manufacturer before it went on the retail shelves, which is very common. Most or any RAMs that you see with speed above 1600MHz are generally overclocked by manufacturer using 1600MHz RAMs for speed boost.
The graphics card slot will still runs at x16 with your card.

Memory speed - Equium A200 PSAF5E

Hi all,
I own a Toshiba Equium A200 - 1V0
Model no. PSAF5E - 001003sp
Bios version updated to v. 2.50
Everest Ultimate 4.5.1330 says that I have 2GB of RAM, in two sticks of Samsumg DDR2-667. Also it says too that my FSB is 133Mhz with correct CPU speed and multipier.
The problem comes with memory speed. It shows DDR2-667 capable sticks and chipset, but DRAM:FSB ratio is set to 8:4 resulting in DDR2-533, in any energy profile. The system operates in dual-channel 128bit configuration, so I'm losing 2144 MB/sec of transfer speed.
The chipset is identified as an Intel Crestline GML GL960, Everest and Toshiba website show it as DDR2-667 capable, Intel website claims about DDR2-533.
Link:[http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&com.broadvis ion.session.new=Yes&PRODUCT_ID=138201]
Link:[http://www.intel.com/products/notebook/chipsets/gl960/gl960-overview.htm]
I haven't found any motherboard info or manual, so here are my questions:
- Is this speed normal or may I expect the DDR2-667 mode with this system?
- Is the dual-channel mode decreasing memory speed?
- If I re-install memory modules one by one and changing the position, Could it reset the speed values of the system?
- Can I access to any hidden BIOS settings to tweak the memory? (I have a Medion system that has a hidden and password protected BIOS mode accessible through F11 instead of F2 where I can find lots of options not shown in normal F2 BIOS)
- Any more ideas?
Many thanks in advance. Any help would be much apreciated.

Hi HiperGrover,
As PauPau wrote, the limited FSB is 533 MHz and that means the memory modules will run at this speed. Furthermore DDR2-667 modules can be used properly but they run only with lower speed.
So don be worry about this, everything is ok with your notebook.
Last but not least in BIOS there are no options about tweaking the modules and such options will not bring a strong performance boost but they could make your computer unstable.

Memory speed 5900 XT

Why I can't overclock the memory clock of my GFX 5900XT at more than 740Mhz...
When the card memory is set at more than 740Mhz some triangles appear in the screen while 3Dmark 03 or some games are running.
What i need.... a better power supply or something else? or this is the higher memory speed of this card.

Well it's likely not the power supply. It's likely to be heat or more likely to be a limitation of the actual RAM or GPU.
It's just like overclocking a CPU, no two are alike, some overclock better than others depending on the yield during production.
Check to make sure you have good case airflow, also check the heatsink (if you are comfortable with delicate equipment) and make sure there is enough thermal paste on the GPU consider getting RAM sinks.
You could try pointing a house fan directly at the card with the side cover of the case removed and see if that improves anything. If you notice, you get a little farther, then you know it's heat related.
I would try that to determing if it's heat before you spend money on a power supply. However, it's always a good investment to have a better power supply as it's what powers your rig and can also kill it if it's not of good quality or pushed too far.

MSI 7900GT memory speed?

Is the MSI 7900GT using the nVidia reference spec's. I'd like to confirm the memory speed because when I check the memory speeds on MSI's website, it says
• 450MHz core clock speed
• 660MHz 256MB GDDR3 memory
See this link. http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=NX7900GT-T2D256E&class=vga
However, the nVidia 7900GT reference board is suppose to be 1.32GHZ memory speed. Why is the MSI version of the 7900GT slower memory speed? Or am I reading this wrong. Or does the MSI website have a typo mistake on their website. Please reply to this because if this video card has slower memory than the reference design, then I should purchase a different brand name.
The MSI card I am referring to is MSI 7900GT, P/N:MS-V801-045, also known as NX7900GT-T2D256E
Thanks

Quote from: Streifenkarl on 07-April-06, 04:37:10
Now overclock that bastard! 750 (1500)MHz should be kitten play for the memory.
I have had my MSI NX7900GT clocked at 570/1600 for over a week now and it has ran smooth at those settings.. Now i did replace the stock cooling with ARCTIC COOLING AVC-NV5R3 NV Silencer Rev.3 and Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound ..
It idles at 37-38F at those setting and scored a 8920 on 3Dmark05 with an AMD 64 3200+ running at 2009mhz stock..
I love this Card

Read this when your memory speed seems too low

You noticed that your memory is not running at the speed that you expected and you are wondering
why that is. Here is the most likely answer to that.
Many monitoring programs don't show you the double data rate (DDR) of your memory. So, first, multiply your memory frequency by 2 to get the double data rate. For example, when using PC4300 ram, you get a memory frequency of 267MHz, in stead of 533MHz. 266 is only half the speed of 533, so your monitoring program shows single data rate, not double. With PC3200 it goes 200/400MHz, etc.
The second thing you should consider is the following. The combination of certain memory frequencies and CPU-speeds make it impossible for the memory/cpu to run at full data rate specified by the memory manufacturer. I'll take my own system as an example to show what I mean.
- 2 Opterons 2212, running at 2000MHz.
- PC4300 memory installed. Maximum speed is 267 (single data rate) or 533 (double data rate) MHz.
Now, the following happens: To get the right memory clock speed, the cpu speed is divided by a number. In this case, it would be:
2000/266=7.5 .
This outcome is not possible for the CPU. It needs a round (solid) number. In this case the choice is between 7 and 8. However, when using 7, chances are that the system will not run stable, because the outcome is higher than the memory can handle (guarenteed):
2000/7=286MHz (572MHz DDR).
So, the higher numer (8) is chosen, giving this result:
2000/8=250MHz (500MHz DDR).
In my case, CPU-Z reports a data rate of about 250MHz. Note the first remark I made: you need to
multiply by 2, to get the doube data rate (DDR) speed: 500MHz.
If you oc the cpu speed slightly, memory speed will increase a bit as well. Example: when overclocking the cpu to about 2125MHz, the memory will start running at the speed it can handle:
2125/8=266MHz (533MHz DDR).

Does the number of memory chips affect this behavior? I have two 1GB PC3200 chips for my MSI KT8 Neo FISR. When I run each one separately, it registers as 200MHz (DDR400) in memtest86. When run together, they register as 100MHz (DDR200). This alarms me to no end, but it sounds like this is expected, yes? If so, why do they "appear" to run at full speed singly, but half-speed running together? And will the actual speed of the two running together match the speed of one by itself (otherwise, I'll see a performance hit when upgrading from 1GB to 2BG)?
Sorry for the newbie-sounding question, but memory's been over my head since my 72-pin's went out of style
Thank you

RX3870-T2D512E OC Memory Speed - What's Up?

Hello..
I have the RX3870-T2D512E OC MSI 626 913 0828 and the advertised clock speed is 2250 but the ATI OC tool as with Rivatuner say it is 1150 (I think). The slider for memory speed slider on both tools don't even go up to 2000, so what is up?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

"I have the RX3870-T2D512E OC MSI 626 913 0828 and the advertised clock speed is 2250 but the ATI OC tool as with Rivatuner say it is 1150 (I think). The slider for memory speed slider on both tools don't even go up to 2000, so what is up?"
There is nothing wrong, you are looking real clock speed, while the effective clock speed is double.
"The slider for memory speed slider on both tools don't even go up to 2000, so what is up?"
Don't do such experiment you can permanently damage the VGA.
1150MHz real memory clock speed = 2300 effective clock speed

Mixing Memory Speeds

Apologies, wrong thread, please ignore.
Message was edited by: Rhys Bethell

Hi Rhys,
i think what you are talking about is mixing memory size, not speed. You can not mix memory speeds, especially in Macs.
You can mix memory size in most Macs. Very few Macs use memory interleaving that requires exactly the same size memory modules to work best. The iMacs allow mixing size with no impact on performance.
Go ahead, Crucial is very good with Macs and can be trusted.
Also very good is Other World Computing (OWC).

A505 S6033 / Memory Speed Mixing

Good Day,
I have a Satellite A505-S6033 i7 720QM @ 1.6GHz Part Number: PSAT9U-006002 OS/Win7 Ultimate HDD/500GB Memory/6GB [Originally 4GB (DDR3-1066/PC3-8500) only].
I removed one 2GB(DDR3-1066/PC3-8500) memory in the 2nd slot and upgraded the memory with a 4GB(DDR3-1333/PC3-10600) and it is working normally. But I noticed the fan is now running intermittently or continuously even if I am not playing games or using applications with high memory usage.
Is mixing a higher memory speed going to cause the fan to run intermittently or continuously to prevent overheating, freezing or auto shut down problems?
Thanks in advance for any advice to my query.

Been doing some more testing and playing around with the A505 and confirmed that my netbook with an Intel® Atom™ Processor N4501 (1.66GHz, 677MHz FSB, 512KB L2 Cache) responds faster in many situations such as start button load time, explorer populating the folder list and things of the like.
So i'm confused about the 1.6GHz A505 vs. 1.66GHz netbook. Are they in fact equal for typical tasks? I guess I was expecting something outrageous with the A505 and I too was mistaken by the 2.8GHz in the ad.
I have til thurs before my 14 day return is up. Wondering if a faster i3 processor like 2.12GHz would be quicker or an i5 without the turbo boost. I dont game.

Memory speed in CCC

hi, i have 2x msi r4870x2 cards in crossfire.
what im wondering is that in CCC it says that the memory speed is at 900mhz but in the spec for the card its way higher.
is everything as it should or is there anything i should do to make the cards go at spec speed?
dont like fiddeling to much since i dont wanna ruin anything

That's suppose to be 900MHz means 3600 effective, since memory used is GDDR5, which works at ratio 1:4{not 1:2 like any prevision till now}, R4870X2-T2D2G-OC:
Take for example R4870-T2D512-OC which also use GDDR5, but its single card{not X2 like yours}, rated mem. freq. is 4000, but real one is 1000MHz. http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodvgaspec&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137&cat3_no=&prod_no=1509#menu

Memory speed problems?

don't know if anyone else has experienced this but let me know if you have and if there is a way to fix it. So I am running XP Pro from Boot Camp 1.4. I test my Windows performance with PC Pitstop. When I was running Vista on 1.3 I tested and the memory speed was 8230 MB/s, very good. Now when I running XP with 1.4, my memory speed has dropped to 3300 MB/s. Does anyone know a different speed test for XP.
Also is there a speed test for OS X?
And there seems to be a lag sometimes in response. I will sit down to use XP and it will take a minute of sitting there before I get "dings" and responses to input.
It seems that there might be a problem with the defrag also because even when the drive has just been defraged, it still gives me a defrag warning. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

After looking into this a little more, it seems that the transfer rate I am getting for my memory is consistant with DDR2-3200 RAM which runs at DDR2-400 speeds. Does this mean that the memory is not as fast as it could be. Do they make DDR2-667 modules?

Memory speed only showing 200mhz on post

so heres a strange one. I just moved the guts of my system into a new case this past weekend. When I booted up for the first time I noticed in post my memory speed is only showing 200mhz. I have 3 sticks of memory in my system and should run at 333mhz, which it was befor ethe move. Even mroe curious, I took out one stick and set the remaining two in slots 1/3 and the system only reads it as 333... not 400. I am a bit perplexed and have no clue how to fix this. My specs are below. I know that it is HIGHLY recommended to run chips that are similar but I've never had a problem until I moved the guts to the new case.
In bios I have memclock set to AUTO. I have changed the memclock to LIMIT DDR400 but that doens't change anything. I've tryed changing the CL/TRCD/TRAS/TRP with both LIMIT DDR400 and AUTO.... no changes. I have upped the voltage all the way to 2.85 with again both memclock settings. I have played around with my FSB, I've gotten it all the way to 215 without a problem, but memroy always stays at 200mhz. The only thing I haven't tryed is resetting the bios witht he jumper and starting over (though I had reset bios defualts, rebooted and then made all teh changes again).
I ran Memtest for 24 hours on all three sticks and they all came out clean. I also ran Sandra 2005 and the numbers are embarrassing for the kind of system I have. I'm stumped, any suggestions?
OH, one last thing, I booted the system with just one stick of memroy in each slot, thats 9 boots... each witht he setting of memclock at AUTO and again at LIMIT400... it either ran at 200mhz or 333mhz on post....
So there is my ordeal, system is stable but I'd like to get the memmory back up to where it was before the swap.

Ok... I shoulld clarify.
with 3 sticks of DDR3200 sandra ran a little over 1200
with 2 sticks of DDR3200 (slots 1 and 3) sandra ran a tad over 2108
there are a couple of pictures eblow to show the post at 15.gig memroy and 1gig. I am refferin to what is being displayed on POST in regards to the DRAM clock.

I am unable to download pictures from my Sony Cybershot to my iMac, I have tried using the USB port as well as simply inserting the memory stick into the slot. I have been able to do this in the past as recently as a few weeks ago.... Help please..

Thanks Eric for responding.
I checked and it does not appear in the Applications folder.
I tried yesterday on an ethernet connection with a download speed of 2 Mbps but, unfortunately the connection died(It happened from the ISP end, which is out of my control) in between after which there was no trace of the download that happened for so long(till the internet connection death).
One more serious query which I am unable to understand. If the internet connection, dies in the midst of the download is in progress why is it so that the state does not persist and one has to restart the entire process again. Is there no solution for this?
I tried so many times and its the same case after some amount of download it vanishes. So many unsuccessful attempts. I am ****** off now. Is it not possible to see Mavericks? Why does different machines of Apple behave differently? Somewhere it goes smoothly and somewhere like my mine. Why did not Apple release a non apple store version? Is this not a bad sign of letting the users struggle when something is being offered for free?
The reason I asked as whether we can download the .app of Mavericks is that, there are so many applications that I have downloaded web and have installed. All that works fine. Can't we do the same here? You download a copy of Mavericks installer application and upload it for me in Google drive or like online storage places which can be downloaded and used by me? Help me understand.
Thanks again.
