What's your memory assessment speed?

Thanks for the tip and the welcome Dave.. I tried the snipping tool, very nice.

Very good, you have that running nicely

erm dont know if i did this right lol

Hi. These are my scores. Is it good enough for my system or could I get more out of it?

Cheers.

For DDR2 running at 534MHz, it's not bad (mine at 880MHz only gets about 8000MB/s). *EDIT* What you put as "534MHz" in your system specs might not be the effective speed, it might be the core speed... But I'm not sure.

But that would depend on exactly what of RAM you have in there... If you don't know offhand, download Speccy and check what make / model of RAM you've got, post the results here and surely somebody should be able to give you some more info.

 

[MiMA]

In my system specs i quoted what Speccy said. It's mean dual channel 533 MHz so it should be 1066 MHz. I have 1066 MHz ram sticks.

It seems Speccy is more popular than I thought then... Lol.

However, regarding your Speccy readout; according to this section, you're running your RAM at 534.3MHz:

        Memory
            Type    DDR2
            Size    8192 MBytes
            Channels #    Dual
            DRAM Frequency    534.3 MHz
            CAS# Latency (CL)    5 clocks
            RAS# to CAS# Delay (tRCD)    5 clocks
            RAS# Precharge (tRP)    5 clocks
            Cycle Time (tRAS)    18 clocks
            Command Rate (CR)    2T

But if you look at each RAM stick, only your Corsair sticks actually support DDR-1066, and even then only by means of EPP (Enhanced Performance Profile). All your RAM sticks are PC-6400, which runs natively at 400MHz in dual channel (which gives DDR-800MHz).

If I'm not mistaken, EPP doesn't function correctly when mixing different RAM makes, I might be mistaken there though... However, that aside: I'm surprised the Kingston sticks are allowing that speed, it appears they don't support it. To be honest (regardless of whether it's just to get better performance or not), do you really need 8GB of RAM...? If not, why don't you take out the 2 Kingston sticks and see how your machine performs then?

Unless you use this machine for working with extremely large images, or for video editing, I highly doubt you'd ever really use even half that RAM efficiently. Just my opinion though...

 

[MiMA]

Well speed is about 100-200MB better than before, when I had only 2 x 2 GB 1066 sticks. I especially checked the frequency and stepping when I bought another 4 GB of ram, so they must support 1066. Corsair Dominator were so expensive since they are not in production anymore. I just saw some screenshots like 15000 MB/s on DDR2 thats why I asked. Maybe it depends on CPU?

 

[Dave76]

It depends on your North Bridge (NB) memory controller and the RAM sticks.

When you mix brands they will usually go to the recommended settings of the lower spec sticks.
Did you manually set the timings and voltages?

For your system, the Corsair are running at recommended settings and the Kingston are OC'ed.
This is likely the reason for the 7037 Mb/s, which isn't bad for DDR2.

 

[wakeboardr116]

I have DDR3 and only get 6900mb/s,

 

[LiquidSnak]

Not quite sure what I should be at, but I'm not running dual or triple channel.

 

[Dave76]

I have DDR3 and only get 6900mb/s,

It's probably only able to run in Dual channel, same as mine, but you should get double that score.

Give us some info on your RAM, brand, timings and voltage settings, number of cards, etc.
Post CPUZ memory and SPD tabs.

Maybe some settings need adjusted.

Not quite sure what I should be at, but I'm not running dual or triple channel.

Depending on your motherboard specs, your DDR3 should be either Dual or Triple channel.
If you have the RAM cards in the same channel slots than it will be single channel.

Check your motherboard manual for the correct slot configuration.

Edit:

Just noticed your attachment, where does it tell you that it's not Dual or Triple channel?

Here's some info on it. I have a Dell XPS 430 though so I don't know if there is a lot I can do.

I just haven't set it up for it. I've had too many random issues trying to get this build to run right, and after I get that sorted I will make it run fast .

Your DDR3 is in Dual channel and you have 4x2GB RAM cards, with Dell BIOS there's nothing you can change.

If you have 2 RAM cards you can change the slots, if they're not in the right slots it's possible to be in single channel mode.

You've got the standard Dell RAM, same as my Dell, as long as its running good your fine.

Yeah I'm not too worried about it. Everything seems to run fast enough for me. I've just been curious as to why its slower since its DDR3.

What speeds does the ram in your Dell run at?

New to the site, thought id post mine up. Not sure what im suppose to be at but i have not messed with any of the settings. I have 6g ddr3 corsair dominators.
