Those timings are quite ridiculous im sticking with DDR 3
What do you think dave ?
I think the memory isn't the problem, and the majority of people complaining wouldn't have bought it in the first place. The idea that timings are high, to me, is FUD. High compared to what? It's DDR4, not DDR3. Yet at the same time, we have the same CPU cores behind this new memory, too. So the idea that bandwidth at the moment is similar, when both technologies have similar products using them... well...uh...
Cant find the OC results. Am I blind or ...
OC results change from set to set. When it doesn't, I'll report about it. CPU and CPU cache are already OC'd. Best I got with this set was a bit over 2666 @ C13, 1.35V.
DDR4 OC is complicated. You cannot simply just change the first 4 timings and get results like I do. If I OC that way, the best these sticks would do was 2620 MHz C15. Other timings MUST be adjusted. So, do I show results with my tweaked settings, or with just adjusting the first 4, like most users will do, and then not be able to get the same results? How should I test stability of these OCs? Just enough to do the benchmarks, or enough to truly be stable? (hint: There's a difference)
OC results aren't something "based on fact". I report the facts (to the best of my abilities).
I WILL report a full rundown on memory OC in the future, separately.
