Received a new triple channel memory kit from folks at Gskill - 6GB Gskill Trident F3-16000CL9T-6GBTD. The Gskill Trident F3-16000CL9T-6GBTD is supposedly using Elpida BBSE memory ICs, while not as capable as Elpida Hyper 50mm ICs for >DDR3-2000Mhz 7-8-7-x speeds, they still hold their own for looser timings. I'll post my preliminary results here in preparation for a larger triple channel memory kit comparison review in the works
System:- Intel Xeon W3540 3845B010
- EK Supreme LT 1366 / FESER 480 / MCP655
- Asus P6T6 WS Revolution
- Gskill Trident F3-16000CL9T-6GBTD
- 512MB Inno3D 8800GT OC Edition 190.62WHQL
- 750GB Samsung SATA
- Pioneer DVR-217 DVD-RW
- Corsair HX1000 PSU
- Dual Boot - WinXP Pro SP3 (nLite fully updated) with Vista Theme & Win7 Ultimate 64bit RTM
First hour using this kit and managed an overclock on these for 8x 32M Pi @DDR3-2124Mhz 9-9-9-24 1T at 1.72v. Asus P6T6 WS Revolution bios sets latencies pretty tight so good pi performance even for Win7 OS
Both 8x 32M Pi and single 32M Pi runs done in same windows session.
Max memory clocks @9-10-9-24 1T at 1.76v
Folks are reporting higher head room mhz with 9-10-9-x timings for Elpida BBSE, and I can confirm that is correct. With 9-9-9-24 this trident kit maxing out 32M around DDR3-2124mhz with ceiling of semi-stability around 2160mhz. With 9-10-9-24 timings same trident kit pushed 32M pi @DDR3=2220mhz and managed validation @DDR3-2281Mhz all at 1.76v vdimm and 1.65v QPI/DRAM uncore volts.
System:
Max Validation @DDR3-2281Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.76v
Max Screenshot @DDR3-2267Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.76v
Max Super Pi 32M @DDR3-2220Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.76v
New personal best cpuz memory validation and first time breaking DDR3-2300Mhz for triple channel on X58 @DDR3-2305Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.78v. Previous best was
@DDR3-2298Mhz 9-9-9-24 with 3GB Samsung HCF0 modules.
Max Validation @DDR3-2305Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.78v
QPI/DRAM = 1.65625v
VDIMM = 1.78v
Uncore frequency = 4608Mhz
Super Pi 2M @DDR3-2256Mhz 9-10-9-24 1T at 1.78v
Shows promise, so now to let this memory kit get to know my Xeon W3540 + Asus P6T6 WS Revolution pairing
