Crucial Ballistix DDR3-1600 / PC3-12800 in OZ

Post by eva2000 »

Thanks to ExtremePC.com.au for lending me a 2GB kit of Crucial Ballistix PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 memory modules to test out :)

Typical Crucial conservative memory rating scheme :)

Specs:
  • 2GB kit (1GBx2)
  • Ballistix 240-pin DIMM
  • DDR3 PC3-12800
  • DDR3-1600 8-8-8-20 at 1.8v
  • Unbuffered NON-ECC
  • 128Meg x 64
Some photos for now. Bit busy right now, so testing will begin later this week hopefully I shall have some X38 chipset motherboards to test them out on later this week or next week :)

haven't tried on P5K3 Deluxe yet as ran into a bit of a problem last night - my Belking surge protector board the P5K3 Deluxe was connected to, went pop and literally smoke came out of it and tripped several safety switches at the mains box and entire house blacked out LOL

Ordered a new surge protector while I ram the smoked one hehe

Just before the smoked Belkin Surgemaster power board happened, I did pull off my fastest <3600Mhz 32M time to date (faster by ~2 seconds)!

Crucial Ballistix PC3-12800 @900Mhz 7-6-5-18 1T at 2.0v vdimm bios set.
