Is anyone running Corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF?

How about it? Anyone else using these sticks? I'm interested in comparing my settings to whatever you happen to be running.

My settings (out of everest simple copy/paste):

Code:

Memory Timings	
CAS Latency (CL)	5T
RAS To CAS Delay (tRCD)	5T
RAS Precharge (tRP)	5T
RAS Active Time (tRAS)	15T
Row Refresh Cycle Time (tRFC)	52T
Command Rate (CR)	2T
RAS To RAS Delay (tRRD)	3T
Write Recovery Time (tWR)	14T
Read To Read Delay (tRTR)	Same Rank: 4T, Different Rank: 6T
Read To Write Delay (tRTW)	8T
Write To Read Delay (tWTR)	Same Rank: 11T, Different Rank: 5T
Write To Write Delay (tWTW)	Same Rank: 4T, Different Rank: 6T
Read To Precharge Delay (tRTP)	5T
Write To Precharge Delay (tWTP)	14T
Precharge To Precharge Delay (tPTP)	1T
Refresh Period (tREF)	2600T
DRAM Read ODT	3T
DRAM Write ODT	6T
MCH Read ODT	8T
Performance Level	6
Read Delay Phase Adjust	+9T
DIMM1 Clock Fine Delay	13T
DIMM2 Clock Fine Delay	4T
DIMM3 Clock Fine Delay	12T
DIMM4 Clock Fine Delay	3T

Think you can lower your CL an lil bit

and put it at 4

Tried... didn't work

It's very difficult to use CL4 at 400MHz, 533MHz? Be prepared to spend a lot more!

Not running this ram Graysky but my OCZ ReaperX PC8500 looks very similar in timings wish I had 8G though

While playing around and not sure if this applies to your ram or not but its always fun to experiment

I run this @ DDR400 @522 usually.

5-5-5-18 works fine (OCZ spec)

5-5-4-12 is quite attainable.

Playing with your (tRFC) on these yields different results as well using 60 loosens the other timings and sometimes you can obtain interesting results. Yours is at:

Row Refresh Cycle Time (tRFC) 52T

You could try lowering this one increment at a time as well and see what happens mine I usually run @ 46T
