Nf980 g65 memory voltage

Sitting on hold with msi waiting for some info on this motherboard. Before I order it I wanted to see the specs at which point I notice on their website that the memory voltage supported is 1.5.. 1.5? that cant be right. Anyway I had to goto work before some1 came on the line. Has anyone got this board? If so what ram are you running? I was hoping to get 8 gigs of 1333 running on it. Even if that means going down to 1066 due to memory controller limitations. Not very clear on the am3 memory controller as Im still using am2. No QVL on website or in manual either.

Take it easy, okay? I'm only trying to help you out. Your questions aren't that hard to answer.
Again: the voltage can be adjusted, of course it can. The numbers, no, I don't know them, but it will most certainly go over 2V. 2.1, 2.2 maybe. But most DDR3 RAM runs under 2.0V. For example, Ballistix (Crucial) runs on 1.8V and on 1.9 if overclocked. The bios can be set to 1.9, be sure of that.
Then QVL: What do you need that for? QVL's are for reference only. Just go for some simple value ram if you are not going to overclock the system. If you are going to overclock, go for some good quality, matched pairs. OCZ has some very good dimms with AMD-timings, so no Intel based timings. Check their website to find what you need.
Speed: you can make the dimms run on pretty high speeds. Most of the time, you can run 4 dimms, but it will make speeds drop a bit. So, from 1333 to 1066 or something like that. However, it is highly dependent on the memory controller inside the CPU. And since no cpu is 100% the same as the other, it is impossible to know in advance how the memory will work with the cpu you are going to get. But, AM3-cpu's are very stable and tolerant when it comes to timings and memory slot population.
Now, I do hope that this is some answer that you can use. If not, just say so but try to keep the nasty tone out. Thanks.

  • MSI NF980-G65 DDR3 Voltage Question

    Ok I see NF980-G65 manual it says 4 DDR3 DIMMs 240PIN/ 1.5v is this the minimum voltage that it supports? Whats the highest?
    The memory I bought is 8GB Patriot Viper II Extreme Performance DDR3-1600Mhz PC3-12800 Modules
    Speed PC3-12800 (1600MHz), Memory Timings 7-7-7-20, Voltage 1.9v
    Here is the website for info on the ddr3 memory
    http://www.patriotmem.com/products/detailp.jsp?prodline=5&catid=45&prodgroupid=126&id=840&type=1
    Can the MSI NF980-G65 handle 1.9v?

    Just because it says it was tested on intel setups doesn't mean it won't work with amd systems! Which its working fine on my amd setup at auto voltage running 1600Mhz I just wanted to know what the maximum voltage this msi board was ok with?

    It may work, but its not guaranteed and there is high change to fail

  • MSI NF980-G65 Memory amount installed. "Poll"

    I'd like to start a poll here to find out how much Ram & what Brand & sticker # you used, example "F3-12800CL9-2GBRL' or whatever. I do have the QVL sheet, but not all Ram is on it & I'm just curious. Did you install 4 or 8GB or more on this Mobo?  If you contribute your info here in this poll, It just may help other people who have this Mobo make a choice on what you think is the best ram for this Mobo for an Intel or AMD CPU.
     Please don't tell me Gskill Ripjaws series Ram is not compatable with AMD CPU's. I have Gskill Ripjaw ram @ 1600Mhz installed & I'm using a Phenom X4 965 CPU,on the MSI NF980-G65 Mobo. The Gskill series Ram is not all specified for nothing but Intel CPU's. The Package for my Gskill Ram clearly states, "For use with AMD CPU's." So lets have poll here.
     At first I installed 4GB of Gskill ripjaw Ram. only 2 sticks/ 2GB each. "F3-12800CL9D-2GBRL" They run Great @ 1600Mhz with a Bios ajustment. From what I've read on other Tech forums it's better to use only 2 memory slots then all 4 slots. Less stress on the CPU. Then I installed 8GB of Ram 2 sticks/ 4GB each. NICE!  Tell me & those who find this poll what you used if you wish. Thank you
     Edit: Edited name of topic to the correct full name of MB. It is not 980-G65, it is NF980-G65.

    Nothing I see asks about what runs better or performance results. This thread is over 8 months old. So let's cut to the chase & just advise everyone to stick with RAM tested on the mainboard in question with whatever brand & number of GB, & in compliance with the platform's native supported specifications. If wanting to use RAM that is rated above supported platform specifications & expect it to work trouble free without any tweaking, it doesn't always work out so well. Post in the OC Section of the forum if trying to run 'anything' above native supported spec.
    The thread IMO, was ill conceived from the start. Why perpetuate it any longer? Most people disregard the actual facts & buy whatever is the flashiest & had the best advertising & marketing scheme.
    Do people still really think a pretty heat spreader is saving their RAM from total destruction? Too funny!

  • NF980-G65 MCP temp problem

    Hi. I'm new here and I've been googling this problem for a while and haven't found a specific solution for my problem so I was hoping someone here could help me. First off, I am not a computer tech or know-it-all.

    320 GB WD 7200 RPM HD & 1TB WD 7200 HD.
    My computer didn't have any problems until yesterday when I left my computer on all day (was a really hot day) and I came home and turned on World of warcraft in windowed mode and tried to play a movie (I always play with a video running) and the video wouldn't display and crashed each time I tried. I could run either the game or the movie but not both. So I checked the temperature and it showed MCP at 95 C. I turned it off for a while, and it went back to normal.
    I looked at many different posts and one suggested I try reapplying the thermal compound on my CPU chip which I did with Arctic silver 5 and it's helped my CPU temp a bit but not my MCP temp.
    Then I read from other posts that MCP is a different chip but I have no idea where it is. Is it the square silver (one with "MSI" written on it) next to the 2nd PCI-E slot? http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1885
    I would figure it would be that one since it's covered by the 2nd video card then it would make sense for the high temp.
    If it is. would putting it down to the 3rd slot fix the problem? I'm not sure if the SLI cable would even reach from 1st to 3rd slot if I had to do that. And not sure if leaving the 2nd PCI-E slot open would be alright. I know I'm sounding like a noob; but I really am so please bare with these questions.
    If that is not the MCP chip can any1 tell me where it is specifically on that board and how I should go about fixing the temp problem.
    I have 2x120mm Rear exhaust fans, 240 top exhaust, 3x120 front exhaust fans, and even installed a 120mm Side panel intake fan which I figured would blow right on the MCP chip since people said it was in the southern area, but it has not helped.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    3 x 2GB sounds like a memory kit meant for an Intel system. In the old days non-optimal memory configurations made chipset temp. sky-rocket. But that shouldn't be it nowadays, should it. 
    At least try with a single stick.
    Next comes air-flow. Like Henry says, 'in from the front and out the back or top'. If for example a big processor heatsink blocks the way, parts of the motherboard and the memory will be in a poor air-flow pocket. That is partly your problem I believe, possibly alongside an exhaust fan that is not up to the job.
    The chipset has a separate heat sink. If you intend to reseat that heat-sink, you will have to take the motherboard out, and un-fasten it from the back-side. Use tiny pliers if your fingers are too weak.

    Hey everyone, so I have a NF980-G65 mobo with the kingston hyperx mem (KHX1600C8D3K2/4GX) and I'm trying to find stable clocks for the ram.  Also I'm runnin an AMD Phenom II 955 @ 3.8ghz.  Anyways take a look at my picture here..
    My question is, are my timings acceptable here for stability purposes? I read in another forum that the Phenom II's run better with lower "tighter" timings.  However as you can see in my pic I have a LinX stress test results showing it passed all 20 loops with ALL memory selected @ timings of 8-8-8-24 @ 1.67V.  If I pass this test, does this mean I'm very stable? Also, if someone else has this mobo with this ram, have you overclocked any higher? Thanks everyone 
    Too much voltage brother
    you should darn near never hit above 52*C on a Deneb... anything above 50*C and you start to loose performance. Your borderline Max hitting 57*-58*C

  • NF980-G65 Must press reset button to get post boot problem.

    I've seen other posts here & on New Egg where I ordered the MSI 980-G65 Mobo, about when booting for the first time you may find you need to press the reset button to post boot. It seems this is not an isolated problem.
     I read the mobo book while building & read the first thing to do is get into the Bios & load optimized defaults on page En-32. I did that & I always have to press the reset button to post boot every time I start up for the first time. Any self restarts after that are ok. I installed Gskill Ripjaw series DDR3 1600Mhz ram & set the voltage for 1.5v. It booted with ram default @ 1333Mhz. I set the NB freq to 1:4 to set it to 16oo Mhz, I thought it was cuz you have  to OC the settings to get the ram to run @ 1600Mhz. I still had to press reset to get it to post. I know that making any changes other then keeping default settings may cause these problems. I also read here someone else stated to clear the CMOS, move the ram around & it worked for him. I didn't do that.  I decided to load the failsafe defaults, save it, & restart. It booted ok at cold boot. So, back into the Bios I reset all my settings all over again, saved it, rebooted ok from cold start.
     One thing to know, The setting for ganged ram @ 128bit is duel channel mode. The unganged setting puts you in single channel mode @ 64bit.  Useing 2 sticks, 2X2GB in Dimms 1&2 as per the mobo book duel channel mode arrangement. CPUZ will verify that your in duel channel mode.
     My thanks to the person who also posted about this problem.

    Hi
    I hope you don't mind me replying to this thread but it hasa a lot of my problems in it.
    I have just bought an NF980-G65 mob., with an AMD Phenom II X4 955 (Deneb 4c)
    3.2 GHz, DDR3-1333, 2 MB L2, 6 MB. I also bought the G-skill 1600 ram, I was a bit put of when it came as it was for an Intel pro, as stated previous.
    I have it set up with two Nvidia 7800gt G.cards.
    I installed a new hard drive W.Dig. 650gb black. when I tried loading win7 64 i kept getting a blue screen with various faults on it.
    It would work as far as the grey line "loading windows" and even the logo but would then crash.
    The amazing thing is that i put my old hardrive back in and it booted up as 32bit win7 and loaded the drivers.
    this seemed to work until i tried to install a game and it crashed again all i saw was a quick message about "memory"
    needles to say i have returned the g-skill ram as that was the only thing not in the mob recommended ram.
    I am with any ram now and I'm having difficulty finding somewhere that has a stock of recommended ram i.e.
    Patriot PGS34G1600LLKA, GeIL GV34GB1600C8DC, or lots of very expensive Kingston. £100 is about my limit.
    Any way that said, as you are running G-Skill ram do you think i had another problem?
    the one i bought was GSKill 4GB DDR3 Dual Channel Memory Kit (2x2GB) PC3-12800 1600MHz (7-8-7-24)
    Model Number: F3-12800CL7D-4GBRM
    could you confirm the model number of the g-skill in case mine was a differant type.
    thank you

  • GSkill 1600Mhz Ram on NF980-G65 Please post stable settings here for 1600Mhz

     Please post here about what settings you are using to run this ram stable on NF980-G65 Mobo.
    Exactly what are you setting in the bios? Voltage= ?  Anything else?
    Our knowledge of knowing what works & how, can be greater then what we get told by some Reps.
     Please, let us help each other to help ourselves. We know better, we really use these Mobos.

    Believe Mike's statement was "not going to gain anything significant" rather than "won't gain anything". In my experience, a stable 1333 is far better than a problematic 1600. With some tweaks, 1333 can rival basic 1600 performance anyway. Should as little of a gain as 1 or 2 FPS at 1600 speed be considered significant? IMHO, CPU & VGA have a bigger influence on performance than RAM. This isn't helping answer your thread's original topic question however, so I hope Vorg or others can come back with some specifics that worked for them. Many times, even with similar systems & components, the results can't be duplicated unfortunately.

    Blue screen like that sounds like RAM, or overclocking, or overheating,  I guess you are not overclocking.
    I'm using memory modules "specifically designed for intel P55 chipset" (according to OCZ) on my AMD PC.  The only thing is that I had to set up the timings manually.  I was able to set up tighter timings because I'm running slower than rated speeds (at 1333 MHz instead of 1600 MHz), no problems whatsoever.  But I'm not saying that the GSkill RAM that you bought would definitely work though, incompatibility problem is still possible.  I bought my RAM at a local store, so its easy to return it if it didn't work  
    So, apart from incompatibility, either the timings or speeds were not correct, or you had some defective RAM modules.  Need to run memtest on them to find out.  Also, Phenom II normally accept maximum RAM clockspeed of 1333 MHz, if you set up the RAM to go 1600 MHz that is considered overclocking and may not be stable.
    This is the favorite line in this forum:  Check your power supply!    A weak power supply may cause problem as well.
    Also try using single card before you do SLI when installing.
    Good luck!

  • New NF980-G65 with an AMD X6 1090T and the BIOS Update Utility Crashes?

    Last week I received my new NF980-G65 board and with it an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T (Thuban 3.2GHz Socket AM3).  After installing the board and starting it up for the first time I noticed that it reports BIOS version 1.1 and CPU unknown.  Next I downloaded the BIOS update to version 1.3 from msi, made a boot USB stick and powered up again.  System will not boot from USB.  I tried now over 20 different sticks from 256MB to 64GB and none of them worked!
    Went back to my old system and ripped its floppy drive out to install it in the new computer.  Had to go to RadioShack since I have not touched a floppy in over 10 years, but they had some on clearance.  Made me a boot disk, put the new BIOS and install utility on it, booted the system with the floppy, started the BIOS update utility and watched it crash.  When I start it by itself it gives me three screens of options and commands, but as soon as I try to use one of the commands or update the BIOS it keeps crashing.
    What do I have to do to get the BIOS on the NF980-G65 updated so it will run with my AMD X6 1090T processor?
    Thank you in advance for ANY help...

    What thing are you talking about?  You are experiencing the a certain symptom for which you do not know the cause.  For some strange reason and without any in-depth tests you seem to assume that the board must be the problem (ignoring all other components (for example your factory overclocked memory modules).

  • New Nf980-g65 board refuses to post please help

    Hi everyone I just purchased a nf980-g65 board and installed the cpu a phenom II 945 and connected everything and the board will not post no beeps fans spin up and one power phase light comes on. If I removed the ram however the board will make 3 long beeps without the ram installed I did a bench test no change with ram installed the ram is patriot pdc32g1333elk is the ram causing an issue or what could be wrong?

    Is this a new build?
    Does it worked before?
    Have you tried to boot with barabone setup and mainboard of PC case?
    Do >>Clear CMOS Guide<< with power cord removed,
    leave 1 memory stick in 1st DIMM close to CPU socket. Then try to boot.

    I'm trying to find the first propper thorough and independant review of this motherboard where the writer physicaly has a NF980-G65 board so it can be benchmarked and compared against Asus's board with 980a chipset and current AMD chipset boards. I want to read the reviewers opinions.
    The difference between mainboards using the same chipset is non-existent.  When some boards are faster than others it's usually because the manufacturer has tweaked stock memory sub-timings within their BIOS.
    MSI's and ASUS' boards are also manufactured by the same company [Foxconn].  So expect the build and component quality to be the same.  The only real difference would be features, BIOS configuration and board layout.
