MSI 6600GT with DDR1 and DDR3 memory?

Hi, im looking to buy the MSI NX6600GT-TD128 (PCIe version).
On MSI Website it says it has DDR3 memory.
But some onlineshops have the card labled with memory type 'SDRAM-DDR', while all other 6600GTs on the same shops are labled 'GDDR3'.
So is there 2 versions of this card, one with DDR1 and one with DDR3?

I'm using Corsair XMS TwinX 1024 LL and I have had no problems so far. However, be warned, there are quite a few people who have horrible luck with Corsair for this processor. That said, check out this link to my post on the subject...Post on Corsair RAM

Dm4-1060us laptop SD Card Reader 5-in-1 question. Does it work with SDHC and SDXC memory cards?

dm4-1060us laptop SD Card Reader 5-in-1 question. Does it work with SDHC and SDXC memory cards?

This cart reader is a kind of multi card reader and you can use different cards with it. In my opinion every multi device should be used very, but very gently. I do not know what happened exactly in your case but maybe you have damaged something inside.
Try to restart your notebook and use other SD card to check if everything works well. Please do it very gently and if you see something is wrong stop with inserting the card.
I use 1 GB SD card on my A200 without any problems.
In my opinion you should check notebook by technician.
Bye and good luck!

MSI G41M-P33 Combo Motherboard & DDR3 Memory Issue

Hello, so yesterday (Monday, September 30, 2013) I bought the MSI G41M-P33 Combo Motherboard and 2x4GB DDR3 1333 memory. This motherboard supports DDR2 & DDR3 memory (2 slots each; 4 total). The motherboard supports 1333 MHz and up to 8GB of memory.
So I put the computer together, and tried to load up. I get 3 beeps (I looked it up, and this means bad memory). So I took out those two DDR3 sticks and replaced it with one 1GB DDR2 memory that was in the old motherboard. That loaded up! I tried sticking in the second 1GB DDR2 from the old motherboard, and that worked aswell! There was 2048MB of memory running on there.
So I think that the memory I bought is bad/broken. I went back to the store and got a different set of 2x4GB DDR3 memory. I tired this memory combo excluding the DDR2 memory, and it did the same exact thing. It beeped 3 times ---> hence concluding that the motherboard doesn't want to work with DDR3. I went on MSI's website to update the BIOS. I downloaded "7592vWB.zip" (released about 2 months ago) from "msi.com/product/mb/G41M-P33-Combo.html#/?div=BIOS" and I extracted it to a USB (using a different computer). I went back to the DDR2 stick on the problem computer so it can load and I can go back into the BIOS. Did the update, it completed successfully.
Yet, I still get the same issue of the 3 beeps with the DDR3 memory. I do not want to return these memory sticks, since I prefer 8GB DDR3 memory, and if I replace them with another set of DDR3 memory, I'm sure it will still do the same thing.
Helping me with this is much appreciated. Thanks for reading.

I have exactly same issue. MB works fine with DDR2 2x2GB. I wanted to bump up the memory and bought ADATA 4GB DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 stick.
All has been said before. Chances with current DDR3 1600 are slim to zero.

Combo boards are picky with ram especially DDR3 which has been far from being standard at the time the board has been released.
DIMM of 1.5 Volt DDR3 800/1066/1333*(OC) means the board supports DDR3 800 and 1066 1.5v sticks by default and according to it's controllers specs BUT DDR3 1333 is considered overclocking (* oc) and as usual with overclocking it might work or might not work depending on the individual sample. As these sticks are current sticks and your board is quite old compatibility might not be ideal. Eventually it would work with increased voltage or relaxed timings but as your board won't work with the DDR3 sticks at all you can't change settings.
An idea would be clearing cmos before retrying with just one stick as you changed from DDR2 to DDR3 and old settings could be a problem too (>>Clear CMOS Guide<<).

Problem with threads and/or memory

I'm developing an application where there are 3 threads. One of them sends a request to the other, and if the 2nd can't answer it, it sends it to the 3rd (similar to CPU -> CACHE -> MEMORY). When i run the program with 1000-10.000 requests, no problem occurs. When i run it with 300.000-1.000.000 requests, it sometimes hangs. Is this a problem with the garbage collector, or should it be related to the threads mecanism.
(note: eache thread is in execution using a finite state machine)

i had been running the program inside Netbeans.
Running the jar using the command line outside
Netbeans i have no more problems... Does Netbeans use
it's own JVM?Depends how you set it up, but look under the options. There are settings for the compiler and jvm that it uses.

Msi 6600gt agp not working on epox mobo ?

I have this mobo (http://www.epox.nl/products/view.php?product_id=420).
I bought a msi 6600gt agp card and installed it in this pc, when i tried to boot up the pc all the fans including the cards were spinning.
But nothing else seemed to get power, dvd drives and hard drives didn't get any power.
Now somebody said to me that the card needs 0.8 volts and that ly mobo only supports 1.5 volts.
I'm not sure if this is true, so thats why i post here and i hope someone can help me out with this.
thx in advance

My old one is a 5600 fx and that one works.
I changed power suply to a 400 watt cause i thought it was that, no change.
We plugged it in another machine and there it boots, someone said to me that it is my agp slot that is not giving the right amount of voltage.
greetz
It may very well still be the power supply. Stating using a 400w power supply means absolutely nothing these daysPower Supply Guide
And, as Overvolt suggested, it might be a good idea to look into the BIOS for your motherboard....
So after you read the link I gave, let's have the specs on that power supply you tried, and what was in the other machine?

Semaphores and shared memory's classes

Hi there,
I looking for the classes used to deal with semaphores and shared memory. Does anyone know which are these classes?
Thanks

The file mapping capability added in 1.4 may result in shared memory but this is not guaranteed. You can use JNI to call some C code which allocates shared memory and then uses the NewDirectByteBuffer method to return a ByteBuffer representing that shared memory to the Java code.
You would also need to use JNI to wrap system provided semaphore or mutex operations to provide cross process synchronization.
However, do your communication needs really require performance in excess of that available using sockets? I can get at least 7MB/s between two processes on a rather modest machine.

Hello!
Don't think you have to flash the BIOS. Nor do I think there is a problem with the mobo.
Two main reasons for boot problems are:
PSU with not enough grunt - please say something about it.
Memory timings are too tight - don't have any special or ultra settings.
The power cable has not been attached to the graphics card - don't know really if it is needed but I think so.
Please note that a weak PSU might not reveal itself til the power cable is connected.
About flashing BIOS, if you use the LiveUpdate program that came on the MSI install CD, it is no more trouble than upgrading any driver. But please make sure you get the right BIOS, and that it solves the issue you got.

Mixing a 1GB memory (DDR3 1067Mhz) with a 4gb (DDR3 1333MHZ)

hi there
i currently have 2gb (2x1) ddr3 1067mhz on my macbook pro. I'm thinking of upgrading it to 5gb, so I would take off one of the 1gb memories and insert a 4gb one.
problem (?) is, the 1gb memory is 1067 and the 4gb one is 1333. when I asked the seller (on ebay) about this, this is what he replied:
"Hello thanks for contacting us. The brand we use
is Dane-Elec and the memory speed is 1333MHz but
they are backwards compatible to clock back to
1067MHz no problem."
First of all, is this possible ? And even if it is, he probably doesn't know I'm mixing a 1067Mhz memory with a 1333mhz one.. can anyone clarify this for me ? Thank you !
Rick.

While that's technically right, it's wrong for the mac.
True enough, I didn't try too hard to downclock the memory on my trials, because I believe it's just not possible to do on the mac. Anyway I've managed to do 3 experiments proving that 1333 just won't run on a core 2 duo made to work with 1066.
1. 2x 2GB 1333 Kingston - crash
2. 1GB 1067 original with my mac + 4GB 1333 OCZ - works
3. 2x 4GB 1333 OCZ - crash
The Bus Speed will always stay at 1.07 GHz and the Memory Speed, if matched with another 1333, will stay at 1333, and will crash your system. It WON'T work at all!
At other hand, if you join 4GB 1333 with 1GB 1067, the bigger and faster one will automatically downclock to adjust and everything will work just fine. You'll sure lose the dual channel, but it's worth it (strictly technically speaking, not considering market and costs).

Msi video card n240gt and n9800gt problems with output HDMI

Hello to all
I have a problem I just bought a new Video card because I needed HDMI output. The previous card I have is a BFG Ge Force 8800GT 512 DDR2 running @ 1920x1080p 60Hz which works perfectly the only downside is it does not have HDMI out with 5.1. Now i installed the n240GT 512 DDR5 and tried watching BD ripped to the HDD and playing them back all i get now it jerking lagging bad also and have horizontal red and green lines scattered across the screen.Which i did not have with my 8800GT card thinking its a bad card so i bought another card from another dealer this time its a MSI N9800GT 1gig DDR3 and still the same problem.I Checked the resolution and its set to 1920x1080P refresh at 60Hz,i also changed the Hz to 24Hz and it cleaned up the lines but not all and picture still jerky picture. I have a MSI K9N NEO V3 Motherboard and all drivers updated current Bios. l used a DVI cable 40ft long with my Ge Force 8800GT and every thing worked fine, once I installed the new MSI Video cards N240gt and N9800GT I have the above problems and using a 50FT HDMI cable. I have a Samsung PN50A550 with 3 HDMI inputs 1 has my BluRay player hooked up with HDMI running at 1920x1080P at 60Hz and crystal clear picture no problems, input 2 has my HD Bell receiver running at same specs as input 1 no problems I tried the other HDMI inputs from the Samsung TV from the HDMI out from the card same thing. It has to be the cards that can`t support the TV what else can it be if not the MSI cards. Please respond ASAP Thanks Thumpalong

You may want to borrow and test with another PSU.
We always recommend Corsair and Seasonic
I can't find anything on Topower other than that opinion piece of linked... getting frustrated. Most of the time I can find detailed info on most psu's not this time, so best to borrow and test.
Assuming of course that the older VGA's worked fine.

Issue with MSI 6600GT

I recently bought an MSI 6600GT for my system. My system is a AMD Athlon 64 3000, MSI RS480M2 motherboard, 2x 512MB RAM, Enermax 365 PS, UATA 133 HD, and Hauppage MCE150 PVR. I had previously been using the builtin video (now disabled) with no issues. Ever since adding the MSI 6600GT I've have an issue where after playing a 3D game awhile (30-60 minutes generally) I'll get a total freeze or a BSOD complaining about nv4_disp.dll. I'm using the latest drivers from nVidia. Typically when playing the gpu temp is around 80-90C as reported by both speedfan and the display properties (which shows it as either green or barely yellow). It seems to be heat related; however, it doesn't appear over spec so I'm thinking the gpu is deffective in that it's way over sensitive to heat. I can't think of any other reason for this.

MOVED: [Athlon64] MSI Diamond-D and OCZ memory compatibility

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
[Athlon64] MSI Diamond-D and OCZ memory compatibility

More imortant than the brand are the types of chips used.
Winbond Bh6 and -Ch5 overclock poor on a AMD64 system, or u need to set the vMem redicoulisly high.
With Samnsung and Micron chips u can get the same timings @normal voltages (2,7v).
Here is a list of chips, icw brands:
http://www.techpowerup.com/memdb/
Make sure u get Micron 5B G or Samsung TCCD chips !
Agree with Stick about the amount of memory. First of all: Windows XP (32bit) cannot adress more then 3 GB, furthermore, no way in the world u are gonna use that memory. Stick to 2GB which is more then enough, heck, 1GB is allready more then enough 99,9999% of the time.

Msi gx620 with intel core 2 duo , 2.0ghz, 800 mhz and 2 M cache ????

So this local store is going to get me an MSI GX620 with 2.0 ghz proccessor. It should be available in 3 days.
From what i know, this is supposed to be the Gx 620-018 with the P7350 core 2 duo proccessor because that's the only 2.0 ghz MSI gx620.
BUT the printed paper that has the laptop specifications, which the store clerk gave me, says:
intel core 2 duo , 2.0 ghz , 800 mhz, 2 M cache (does not mention the processor series name...)
bUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE because the P7350 has 3 M cache memory and more than 800 mhz...
IT also says that the ram memory is 3gb, which i know it's supposed to be 4 gb.
I'm confused...could it be a rip off, or just a stupid mis-print and wrong info about the the laptop specs from the store clerk???
Thanks!

This is a user-to-user forum, nobody here works for MSI (that includes moderators and administrators).
What exactly do you expect us to do? We do not know in which region you live, we do not know the store you have ordered the GX620 in, we do not know where the store is getting the GX620 from (certainly not from MSI, but from another reseller or a distributor (which we don't know) and we do not know the origin and the author of the piece of paper you got in that store nor can we be sure that the info on it is trustworthy. This is a long list of uncertainities for starters. All the GX620 that I have seen here come with a P7350, however, that does not mean, that in your area, this has to be the case as well. Consequently, the only save way (without speculation involved) is to check the notebook itself as soon as it gets to the store. Without further information we cannot tell you anything else.
Quote
I wonder who can???
The store should be able to call its reseller/distributor to check the specs of the GX620 they ordered. If they are unable or unwilling to do that even though the information on the piece of paper they(!) gave you raises valid questions, the problem you have is obviously with the store, not with us here. The specifications sheet for a particular notebook model in a particular part of the world should include the exact model name of the processor. If that is not that case, somebody (the store, the reseller or the distributor) forgot to do its homework and if that was the case, how can anyone in here make up for that? You could call an MSI distributor in your country to find out what variants of the GX620 they are putting on the market in your region. However, this is still not as informative as starting the notebook to check directly.
I don't really get what you are so mad about. You ordered a notebook in a store that is unable to provide you with accurate information about the product it is trying to sell you. That us not exactly a very understandable reason to get upset in here, just because we can't verify the info you got either.

Probems with msi 875p neo Fis2r and network controller driver

Hi guys just wondering if anyone could help me with my msi 875p neo FIS2R and problems with the network controller driver/network card.
I'm running xp on a computer my nextdoor neighbour gave me. I got it working fine with service pack 3 installed but then installed a bunch of windows updates last night and the computer would switch itself off before windows could start. Now I reinstalled xp and unfortunately it does not recognise the network controller/card at all now. I tried installing the intel network controller drivers but it stopped because it said no intel adapter/card was installed/present. Could anyone please help with suggestions? I tried running everest and under newtwork it doesnt list intel network adapters but I'm pretty certain it is. Again any suggestions?

Clear CMOS with your PSU unplugged from A/C power. Then load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS and retest.

MSI Platinium P45 and DDR3

Hello i have a MSI Platinium P45 Motherboard and i would like to know if 4GB DDR3 -1333 is supported
or only DDR3-1066 is.
-Sheldon

It is very important to pay close attention to the marketing name and the model number when it comes to DDR2/DDR3 support.
The MSI P45 Platinum [MS-7512] does not support DDR3 memory sticks:
--> http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1479
The MSI P45D3 Platinum [MS-7513] on the other hand does support DDR3 memory (but not DDR2).

i have a MSI Platinium P45 Motherboard
In case you have the MS-7512/P45 Platinum you can forget about DDR3 support altogether as the board only has DDR2 memory slots. If you indeed have a P45D3 Platinum then you should know that (regardless of what MSI says on the product page for this board) the Intel Chipset Specifications for the P45 Chipset only mention DDR3-800 and DDR3-1066. DDR3-1333 modules are not officially supported on the P45 Chipset (according to Intel's Datasheets).

I installed the dimms as its done in msi MB manual.
Same result with two same ddr3 dimms.
BIOS v.1.30 and CPU Intel Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
Can someone please tell me should this ram work with this MB or not :(
Thanks in advance

Hi I have this exact same Kingston DDR3 ram as Jeff mentioned and same processor and motherboard. Bios v1.3, and even my PC wont display anything, the CPU fan is working the LEDs are on inside the cabinet. But its like the Screen gets no signal. I tried with Single stick and still no results. However it works fine with DDR2 ram. Please some1 suggest a solution.
