What's your memory assessment speed? [2]

[paulpicks21]

Does the size have anything to with it as I only have 8gb the system is still incredibly fast so I don't care much.

Nar not really.

It will just be because you have an AMD CPU, usually with AMD cpus the memory scores are lower. Nothing to worry about, just normal.

OOPS! Sorry I didn't notice you have AMD. That I think is quite a good score for your system. The winsat mem score is fairly sensitive to the CAS Latency too, the 1st number in the timings.

cool i figured it was platform independent and like I said doesn't matter to me, I see a huge real world difference compared to my old pny 1333 kit.

Is this long enough of a memtest for RAM?
Two days, 6 hours, 26 minutes, 14 full passes.

Now switch dimm slots and run it again to be sure

The AMD's memory controller operates best with 8 or less megs of RAM. My 8350/990fx seems more responsive to CAS Latency than the Mhz settings when looking at bench scores.

Whoops......I think I made my ram go to fast.....Did I break it?

Also with only two slots populated I have read. AMD still has issues with 4 populated DIMM slots.

My Ram runs a bit better with the new CPU. With my 3770K it would score around 31000.

Interestingly this score is with the Ram running at 2133MHz, if I run it at it's native 2400Mhz the score is much lower at around 28000. Can't really get my head round that, I guess the CPU memory controller doesn't like 2400Mhz.

I will stick with a 2133MHz speed now anyway as it runs very well.

What does maxxmem give you Paul? That's an unreal score, I think you take the overall lead with it.

Have you tried it at 2600 or 2666?

It is truly awful in Maxxmem Gary, but then again it was with my 3770K too. I don't know what it is with Maxxmem but it don't seem to like Ivybridge.

No I have not tried it any higher than 2400MHz, I figure if the score drops by 13000 going from 2133 to 2400 then it ain't worth trying any higher.

 

[Britton30]

Odd, maxmem seems OK on my 3770K.
The winsat here is with the TridentX only, both sets are 16GB @ 2400

 

[paulpicks21]

Well it certainly don't like Ivy E lol

 

[Britton30]

No it sure doesn't mate. You have an older version than mine too, but I doubt it would make a difference, neither show RAM specs like an older one did. I think you have the same Trident X as me.

Hyperthreading makes a big difference to the score on Ivy-E

Here is how the Ram runs with Hyperthreading turned OFF.

 

[ganjiry]

That's a pretty large difference enit chap :shock:

 

[paulpicks21]

That's a pretty large difference enit chap :shock:

Yeah 10k mate. But it don't really matter as I will be using the pc with HT on. It was interesting to see the difference though.

Yeah man it's good to see a comparison

Wow What numbers!

[paulpicks21]

Yeah pretty heavy numbers Bill eh!

Been playing with the ram today. It does not like to run at full speed, but with the settings below it runs very nicely.



HT ON



HT OFF
