Ballistix Performance Memory

[marcohoule]

Hi , i bought 2 x 2GB of Crucial Ballistix  BL2KIT25664AA80A like 3 months ago , i set them 4-4-4-12 800mhz 2.0v all was stable on my pq5-e and my Cpu q6600 O/c to 3,2ghz 24h stable under prime , cpu stress ...

but 3 days ago , my computer was randomly rebooting sometimes on sleep mode , sometime in games , sometimes while watching a movie , so i search a lot of things that could caused that , i first though it was my cpu but after testing my ram with memtest i had like 300 errors so i put my ram setting to default and now everything is OK.(5-5-5-18) 2.0v

So why my ram is getting unstable after 3month of non-overclocking ?

i'll test if my 2 stick separately to see if i get error in both ,  tonight ...

Sorry for my bad english!

It is possible that the memory has started to fail. Have you tried testing the memory one stick at a time at the 4-4-4-12 settings? Are you linked/sync'd with your CPU FSB/memory settings or just using the CPU FSB increase for getting your CPU overclocked to 3.2 GHz from 2.66 GHz?

My Ratio is 1:1 (cpu 8 x 400mhz) and a Q6600 is 2,4 stock , but all my config was rock solid , and it's still but i'm not running on the timings that i want and that it's suppose to run . I will test 1 stick at a time tonight , i didn't have enought time yesterday. I hope there is only one stick because i don't feel like loosing my computer for a couple of weeks.
