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

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

  • 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 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

  • Msi 7900gt problems

    Hey folks!
    Just got a new system:
    MSI P965 Neo-f motherboard
    E6400 Core 2 Duo
    320G Seagate HD
    Lite On 18X dvd burner
    1G ddr2 667 kingston ram
    MSI 7900GT
    500 Watt P.S.
    Running Win XP home.
    This system was put together locally.
    The MSI 7900gt seems to be experiencing symptoms of the RAM problems others have mentioned here and in fact can be found easily with a google search on "7900 rma".
    I first noticed this when running 3dmark06.....after the first several tests it locks up for several minutes and then the PC reboots. I believe it is during the deep freeze section of 3dmark06 where it freezes(appropriate).
    My 7900gt is   "NX7900GT-VT2D156E-HD"  s/n 602-V066-05SB0605127869
    It came with Serious Sam. Another thread here mentions this number as having been the fixed 7900gt's......but that same thread had a user with a s/n real close to mine having the same problem.....  the "0605" is a date meaning May 2006. Apparently these boards were still using bad memory as of that date. Over on eVGA site it seems they had to stop using Samsung memory and go to Inferion( these details are from memory ) before their problems with the 7900 GT were solved.
    My quandary at this point ......I will be taking the PC back to the local shop(I've only had it 1 week) and asking him to replace the card...of course. Is it worth it to update drivers first and check? I was planning on it ...... but it's probably a waste of time..Right now it is running 84.19.I downloaded the 94.17( I think..the one from the MSI d/l page), but I haven't installed it yet. Do I really need to use drivercleaner after removing the old driver and before installing new? Is this a painless process? I do not have a floppy ...do I need?
    I know some of you will tell me to check the Power Supply specs.....I don't even want to open the case till the shop has directed me.....
    Since his supplier will probably ship another one of these from the same LOT, should I try and get him to swap it for an entirely different card? I do not wish to go thru 5 of these to find a good one! He charged approx $280 for this card.....and he seems to really like MSI stuff. Should I go for an ATI based card? What ATI based card would be comparable performance wise to the 7900gt? The 1900? 1950? Same cost all things considered?
    This is a general purpose machine with an emphasis on gaming ...I want to run Oblivion at reasonable levels...OBLIVION is the reason I selected this card, but I have heard that Oblivion gets along better with ATI stuff( as far as AA and HDR being enabled at the same time).
    OK....I've spouted enough here....am I jumping the gun?  Anyone have ANY suggestions?
    I am open to any comments or help you guys can provide!
    Thanks in advance for your replies!
    Wade  8^)

    Wader had a different PSU at the beginning and switched to the OCZ which did correct some issues as he stated. I also don't recommend gear I have no experience with so I simply do not recommend Antec. I have used them back in the day but I have no experience with the newer one's and do with the OCZ I use now. Nor am I saying the Antec is bad either. I simply don't know one way or the other about them. Some Antecs I have seen folks use at a couple stages along the way did have issues and Antec did work with folks to get those issues sorted. So just saying it is an Antec and they are good is not something I do either. I preffer to give folks some ideas based on my experience rather than be a fanboy of a given product.
    As you may have guessed I have been a tech for some time and yes I have seen drivers cause issues with Vid Cards and other devices. I also commonly test quite a few drivers with my own vid cards as well. And yes I have seen artifacting due to drivers. It does happen all the time.
    However most cards that artifact are not driver issues. Many were overclocked or run hot. That does not mean that someone should assume just because a card is showing artifacts that the card is bad. It can be a driver issue or other things causing such to happen. I recommend trying to look at some of them first like having enough power or trying a few drivers. PSU issues can usually be spotted when folks have substandard 12v amps now days. Trying drivers is free and simply takes a bit of time.
    If everything else is OK then RMA the card. Anyone can get a bad card. If there is a bad series or even a bad batch of cards that is upto the maker and the retailers to sort out which usually happens quite quickly. Granted you had experience with a bad batch or series card. However that issue should be behind everyone at this stage as I can't imagine retailers keeping them around since you had your issues. What MSI did to make the card better is beyond me. However I seriously have doubts that any of those cards are still anywhere to be found. If perhaps someone has one an RMA will handle that. Any maker can have those isssues as well. Just because MSI does not come to the forum to tell all does not mean they do not respond to these and work with there distribution and retail channels to solve them as quickly as they can. So what I would say to you is that while you had an issue and maybe it was not handled well through the retailer does not make MSI a bad maker.
    Everything is a process. Even troubleshooting here. The folks that help out here could likely solve the problems in minutes if they were in front of the computer. However we have to work with info we are given and can ask for. This does make the process slower. However we can start to track issues as well. One thing we did see early on with these cards was the fact that quite a few early cards did have issues and that info was gathered. However before any conclussions or details could be sorted MSI was already working with their channels to get updated cards out there. You happened to get caught in this process for which we all felt bad for what happened to you. Newegg is usually reliable for taking these issues into account and getting them sorted quickly. Why this happened with yours we have no clue here other than to know it was not normally what happens. I understand your reluctance to buy MSI vid cards now. I have had much the same happen to me with ATi cards and thus my reluctance to ever own an ATi card again for any reason. However it happened to me with a 100 lot of cards and not just a few. As it was never sorted and my company was stuck with them I think I may have a better reason to dislike a given company. So yes I do feel your pain. However that said I think that MSI is great with their support of their gear and while sometimes things happen what you experienced has little to do with what started this topic. Wader may just have a bad card. Let him try the driver and let's see what he finds out and go from there. If the card is bad then he can simply RMA it and all is good. If it is a driver then he won't have to do more.
    Wader I only have what is said to go on. I believe you when you say your not into some conspecary mode. It was what it was starting to sound like and yes we do get nutjobs here all the time that try to make a consperacy out of any little thing so you can understand my position I hope. It could be heat if you have low case cooling or a snakes nest of wires blocking airflow. All these new cards run very warm and can heat up easy. However if your getting good airflow then this should not happen. Overheating can also be caused from badly applied TIM between the componants and the Heatsync. However as checking that can also void the warrenty I would preffer to tell you to RMA the card rather than redo the TIM material even though I redo all my own as I get them. I sismply do not trust machine applied TIM. LOL OK TIM is Thermal Interface Material or the goop betweeen the componants and the HeatSync. And we don't need to physically shake hands either. I think we just did lad.

  • 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

  • MSI R5770 @ core speed of 1031mhz & mem speed of 5648mhz

    Just got a new toy to play with MSI R5770 What I really like the most out of this card is the DX11 capability, 40nm GPU Chip (runs really cool even at high clocks), Overclockability and most of all "Performance over the Price". A video card which is not that too expensive but has a big headroom for performance.
    After buying the video card. I benched it and overclocked it right away, hehehe. No mercy for the VC and pushing it to the limits.From a stock core speed of 850mhz and memory speed of 4800mhz. I was able to overclock it to  1031mhz core speed and memory to 5648mhz This was all on air and no extra fans or whatsoever.
    Below was my system configuration for the short quick test
    Processor: ES i7 920
    Motherboard: MSI X58 Pro-E
    Mems: Team Xtreem 1GB 1866mhz (hahaha 1gb only)
    Harddisk: WD Raptor
    PSU: AcBel M8 670watts
    VC Driver:  latest one found in ATI's Website

    Here are the screenshots
    So inside the package you will find
    •Crossfire Cable
    •4Pin molex to 6pin VC Power Connector
    •VGA to DVI Converter
    •Dirt2, Utility CD Driver
    Quote
    At the rear side of the VC. You will find three types of display outputs
    •Two DVI Port
    •HDMI Port
    •Honestly speaking I dont know the third one hehehe

    And now for a short 3dmark06 run
    Score: 17514

    5770 @ stock
    and for finale. all on air
    Score: 20049
    i7 920 @ 4.0ghz
    5770 Core Speed 1024mhz & Memory Speed 5648mhz (1412x4)
    Too bad I was not able to use my own rig for the test and I didnt have the time anymore. The i7 920 ES CO stepping was holding me back to OC it to a higher 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 - 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://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.

  • 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)

    Can anyone help??
    Thanks

    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 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 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?
