High vDimm and AMD no go
Well was wondering why I could not clock my CPUNB with any stability recently. Talked to Buckeye about it, and today I see a post about a guy running 1.65vdimm and not passing blend until he dropped it.
So I pulled out the 1.9v 1600 7-7-7 sticks and dropped in 2 sticks (glad I did not RMA them yet) out of a triple channel kit I picked up recently. (1800 8-8-8 1.65 running 1600 8-8-8 at 1.62)
After not passing blend at 2400 MHz CPUNB (fails in 1 minute) I am now 10 minutes into blending at 2600 CPUNB.
Looks like I am going to try shooting for 3K and see if it opens up any performance on the CPU.
