Can't find my Memory-clock latency

[Supdoc]

My memory:
MXD3C13334GS :: Memory :: Products :: Mach Xtreme Technology

There is no note on the stick upon the memory sticks;
Right now the CL is 9-9-9-24 (auto in bios)

Is there anyway to find out whats the true CL ?

I know that bad voltage settings may cause a bad mem test and BSODS.
wrong CL settings may have a similar effect ?



TIA

Run CPUID and click on the "Memory" tab. It's not foolproof, but it will tell you what the BIOS reads it as.

it doesn't show what it should be, only what already set on the bios, which i ALREADY KNOW

No need to get snippy.

Run Memtest86+. It will report the latencies during the test.

Plenty of apps out there which will tell you what you don't.

 

[Supdoc]

those apps only tell you what's already configured on the bios...

you see?


When you set the timings on "auto", it doesn't necessarily gives you the best result..

I guess ill just ask the manufacturer

 

[TVeblen]

Yes, ask.

I looked up the RAM from your link and a few other sources and nowhere do they tell you the timings for their RAM! Absolutely unacceptable!

The "Auto" settings adjust it according to what the SPD on the RAM tells them. That's the manufacturer's default right there.

I think the OP wants a display of what the CL can be. In other words, the available options. At least that's what I get. That should be shown on CPU-Z. But they only go lower, not higher in performance. The memory will be set, by the BIOS, to it's highest capability indicated by manufacturer's encoding. The JDEC specs are shown in CPU-Z.

If you're looking for all possible combinations of the timings for a particular module, there aren't any. That's not what JDEC does nor any manufacturer that I know of. If you want to go outside of the specifications for a particular module, YOU do that.

^This, The SPD tab should show you the valid timings the memory supports. Of course the memory doesn't have to report any JDEC or XMP profiles I suppose. If it doesn't I'd throw it out and get a known good brand.

Thanks for the info :O


My previous DDRII CL4(4-4-4-12) was identified as 5-5-5-15 timings when I used the auto mode, sp I didn't know if I should trust the given timings



The spd shows- 9-9-9-24




Just as the auto option configured

 

[Supdoc]

they have commented me on their facebook:

CL 9 (9-9-9-27)

and also updated the product specification on their website to CL9


Since it's different from the SPD shows;

so I ask you.... wth ?

 

[carwiz]

What are you asking? I wouldn't complain about a lower tRAS. The BIOS set the speed according to the SPD encoded in the module (as shown). What does the other module report?
