Windows 7: Help with ram problem

Hi everybody,

I am trying to get 8 gigs in my pc but when i put all 8 gigs in it runs very slow but with 4gigs it is better and even better with 2 gigs.

I have intel i5 750 on a biostar tp55 mobo
cpu clock 140.3
mem clock 561.2
cpu speed 2805
the computer sees all of the memory

are you using all matched memory also check you memory voltages in the bios

does it do this when your not overclocked

a911master · 11 Jan 2010

yes it does this at stock settings and yes they are macthed the voltage is 1.599

a911master · 11 Jan 2010

the latency is 8-8-8 @1.65 volts so they say

I usually run my ram a little over max especially if you overclock helps with stability I never use auto settings in the bios i set everything manually you may want to loosen timings a bit

a911master · 11 Jan 2010

when you say lossen up the timming a bit you mean make them higher and should i run the voltage around 1.7

like instead of 8-8-8-24 try 9-9-9-24 I would at least give the ram the max stock voltage I don't know what voltage settings you have you in your bios but you could give a little bit more

what are you using for a power supply

not sure one that came with the case i will find out thanks

it really helps to have a good power supply pretty much anything that comes with a cheap case is junk get one of these
