ocz ddr400 platinum matched pair.. wish i had bought ddr 533 though

but you dont need special memory for overclocking, just divide the memory down. I have mine set at 333mhz in bios so that when i up the fsb my memory ends up running at 410mhz. I have had this memory stable up to about 490mhz but having the cpu at 2.87ghz pushes the memory to high with it set at 400mhz in bios.

do you have the asus sli premium board?
as i gave it a little go once before but couldnt get my smeggin mem to stay at a reasonable rate. its shite twin mos stuff thats rather old now.
am looking to get some ddr 500 or 533 when i next get the money spare, which could be a while.

[GearChange]

yeah i have the sli premium

whats a reasonable rate?
250 to 255 fsb with memory set to 333 in bios should bring your memory to spot on ddr400. your cpu voltage will have to go up a bit to use fsb 250. if u need any help msg me on msn gearchange_greg@hotmail.com

if its ddr 333 twin mos u have then set bios to ddr 266

Sorry to start up an old thread again, but are people on NTL experiencing real bad rising and falling ping, choke, freezing and general laggyness. Mine has been all over the place for about the last week, i'm on a 2mb connection.

If any one has this problem have they managed to get any sense out of NTL, what did they say?

[Katiexx]

yes i have same problem i'm forever getting lockup (freezing) wen i got in touch with them they tried to pass it off as my fault..like my system wasn't good enough to handle the games.. updated it, n still get same problem, its definatley their fault.. would help if they had customer service in the UK with ppl that can fookin understand u!


Xx Katie xX

[arrrgggh]

Thanks Katie,

It's head banging against the wall stuff, NTL keep trying to fob me off with it being a fault at my end too, I'm glad i'm not the only one.

The strang thing is it's only got really bad just lately, usually I have a ping of between 5 and 25.

[24thfret]

Yeah mate i've got NTL 2mb broadband too, was playing BF2 yesterday, my ping was going from 55 to 208, I usually get around 30, same on CS:S I was getting a ping around 70 instead of my usual 30-40.

[phat-ant]

Hi Guys,
during the laggy times I ran the ping plotter.

http://www.phat-ant.net/images/biatch/

results in there.

seems to be the last hop before the server. perhaps a firewall or a router in need of maintence.

duno.
ant.

[Viz0r]

that's to stop DoS attacks ant, it won't let you ping it. well that's my take on it.

[TheTemp]

I sent my results to tef.

[DeViL_DoG]

Nice 1 temp voddy sent his to

[Daev]

Hi yeah i sent mine to.

Fret i noticed the same yesterday im also on 2meg Ntl and my ping was at 50-60 which it never is.

[phat-ant]

Vizor you will be correct in that analysis however, that doesnt mean to say thats not where things are going wrong. could perhaps be related to the configuration of the device.

but the lag is quite strange and rather random so it is going to be quite difficult to track the real source.

[DeViL_DoG]

It seems like u have found the trace of it


Have u noticed that 3 of u are on NTL and the server Providers are NTL aswell

[Pez]

Its not just NTL by a long way, i have it too im on pipex. Its a problem with the server, i dont wanna to get technical or oute but id say its knakered. Buy a new one slags

[DeViL_DoG]

Wake up Pez if the server providers are NTL and there having probs like last time it will affect every one
