Q: I have the following system that is not overclocked.
WinXP Pro SP1, 2.4GHz Pentium 4 (533MHz)
MSI 845GL board (333MHz not officially supported, but reviewers had no problems at 333MHz) Kingmax PC3200 ram 0.
2 x (see below for specs) True Power 480W
Antec PS
GF4-4200 64MB video.
Antec 1030b case, well ventilated and cool.
Problem: When I use the memory at 333MHz instead of 266MHz, using the SPD settings of the system is unstable, and most games crash after a minute or two.
To “fix” the problem, I changed the memory timing to the most conserative possible, and the system is stable. If I were one of improving the memory timings the system unstable. I tried running only one module, but the same result.
Is the problem my memory modules? I am very tempted to Corsair XMS 512MB PC3200 module buy, but hate to spend $ 150 improvement.

Ive also upped the memory, AGP and CPU voltages in different combinations, but no one has improvements.
Suggestions, ideas? Want more info? Let me know.
Thanks, 977,503 guy
Edit: Kingmax memory
Best Answer: what language? c++? if you're not sure what the code is doing, maybe you shouldn't be playing with the source.

Re:Yeah well, turns out like many PC3000+ memory, it'll do 333mhz but at reduced clock timings.
oh well….like I said while back….I might just go buy some properly rated hi-speed ram and ebay my kingmax ram.
thx guys…..

Re:guy, Kingmax is definately a brand..not generic, and PC 3200 is rated above 333 MHz.

Re:Soz, I said Kingmax=generic because it is probably just generic re-branded (like SMART etc), i.e not Kingston which is a brand.

Re:Geez, two flames in a row…..
Generic memory?? Um….Kingmax=generic?
The Mobo, according to anandtec and Sharkey's did 333mhz without problems, and overclocked very well.
Also, I did stabiliy tests with just one 256mb stick….no noticible difference.
Now, just to add, I may have found my own answer…..something that the previous flames…errr, I mean posts didn't say. I searched for "user reviews" of this particular Kingmax memory. I found that Abit boards seem to not like it…..interesting.
I'm ordering a 512mb stick of some other brand memory….maybe a cosair xms module… hopefully it'll work better. Guess I'll just eBay the other sticks. Bummer too.

Re:333Mhz not officially supported, 512Mb AND generic brand memory…..doesnt sound like a good combination to me. Get some supported memory/mobo that fully supports memory
