Hynix DDR3 hit 3GHz (1505MHz)

[SF3D]

Nothing special here, but I finally picked up some Ln2 last week.
I didn't know what to do with it, so I decided to test my Bulldozer chips which have been laying in the closet months now.
My BD CPU's are crap, so I quickly discovered, that it was time for scatter benching.

I did small article about Ripjaws-Z memory on my website few days a go.
OC results were not that good, cause SB-E is limiting overclockability a lot.
Then I got idea to test AMD BD + Ripjaws-Z combination.

Well, just super loose timings from bios and that's it.

I will start to get back in to oc things slowly during next year, so I will not wait another 4 months without benching.

Merry Xmas to all!

I went from 1.7V up to 1.8V and it did not seem to do anything. The stick was not warm or anything.
Well, I would like to test those higher binned G.Skill sticks.

Nice work sir Petri, seems GSkill rules for the enthousiast crowd... and the sticks are versatile on most paltforms, something thta can't be said about another competitor...

[splmann]

Cool !

I also will test my Bulldozer for max. Mem clock .

damn, it's so easy with BD
back in the Lynnfield days you had to test shitloads of chips to find one that does 1500 :D

Yes, exactly. I never found suitable lynnfiled platform for memory oc. Any BD will do this easily, no doubt about that.

Would be cool to test some better memory for this kind of usage. This kit is perfect on 24/7 platform :)

I forgot to update this thread, but I pushed the setup a little bit more. Stick was scaling with super loose timings.

I think these sticks can do maybe 3.4Ghz on ln2, but they will not be able to hit wr freqs. Still it is ok result for 4GB stick.

oh i want it frozen :D
