Thread: Act AMD Phenom 2 X4 965 BE support 1600MHz RAM

Somewhere i have read that the AMD Phenom 2 processors supports 1600MHz random access memory. So later gaining some suggestions i have purchased some peripherals for my new system. The whole thing works efficiently only if i set BIOS setting to default and memory at 1333MHz. But my intention is to play the system with native speed (1600MHz 9-9-9-24). The trouble is when i fix the DRAM to 1600Mhz and timings to 9-9-9-24, the system freezes. Do i need to make any more alters to function the system stable? What central processing unit setting required?

As I had already purchased the random access memory, I just learned that storage with more than 1333 MHz less overclocking with the fresh Intel processors (i5, i7, etc.) can be utilized, but not with AMD processors because of the FSB or so.

The random access memory voltage is fully independent of it, however, these must ever be fix separately in the BIOS, with higher clock and / or tighter latencies commonly need a voltage increase. Here, however, the maximum permitted through the producer must be noticed necessarily voltage.

Based on the board / chipset / central processing unit less overclocking the central processing unit is just a predetermined maximum clock velocity of the random access memory is potential. I can not tell you just perfectly how it is with your central processing unit, since I am Intel user . But with my recent Core i7 860, it is as such that I can choose in the BIOS, just a maximum clock frequency of 1600 MHz RAM. The board (chipset) can still much higher RAM frequencies (> 2000 MHz), but I must then increase the base clock of the central processing unit (ie overclock) in order to get this can be.

The trouble will likely be your CPU which affirm DDRiii memory, according to AMD only till 1333. When the memory controlled confirms the central processing unit clock frequency than the max, it can utilize only those above Hyper Transport velocity.

The AMD Phenom 2 X4 BE processor shows the native quad-core plan of AMD Phenom X4 to the following level: An entire of VIII MB big cache (2MB L2, 6MB L3), further optimizations such as Hyper Transport 3.0 and the "Smart Fetch" technology and producing in 45 nm for a nice boost in function and energy efficiency. The incorporated memory controller supports up to furnish DDR2-1066 or DDR3-1333.
