I've got the Corsair TWIN2X4096-6400C5DHX (Should I regret buying this instead of CAS 4 RAM ?).
The default speeds on auto are 5-5-5-18, with a TRFC of 42 (forgot the other values). The rated voltage is 1.80v.
I've manually forced only these above 5 values to prevent the BIOS from changing them when OCing. The other RAM values are on auto.
My current stable (overnight OCCT, HIGH priority RAM test (FYI: HIGH priority fails where normal will pass)) settings for the rig in my signature are:
FSB = 430
Multiplier = 8
vCore = 1.23750 (Zero vDroop(!) with Load Calibration)
vPLL = 1.50 (1.61 actual)
vTT = 1.20 (1.16 actual)
vNB = 1.45
vSB = 1.05 (1.072 actual)
vDIMM = 1.80 (1.86 actual)
I've manually entered 5-5-5-18 for RAM, and loosened the TRFC to 50 (this made it stable, and also let me lower vNB a notch). Other values for RAM are on auto.
I've selected the lowest RAM divider so that its running at 860MHz (I can't select anything lower).
I want to reach 3.60GHz from the now stable 3.44GHz. I don't think my RAM can overclock anymore at 5-5-5-18 so I think I should increase it to 6-6-6-something.
The problem is whatever combination of 6's I try it doesn't POST (I left TRFC at 50 BTW). Is there some minimum value for the other values if the CAS is increased to 6?
