Firmware update for old DDR4 memory?
Hi,
I recently added more ram to my old computer but when both kits are added, memtest86 11.0 fails.
Board: MSI B360 Gaming Pro Carbon
Old RAM: Patriot Viper PVE416G266C6KGY 16GB 2666 CL16 1.2V
New RAM: G.Skill F4-2666C19D-32GIS 32GB 2666 CL19 1.2V
The timing info from the Patriot EPROM is odd. Is there any update?
---=== Timings at Standard Speeds ===---
AA-RCD-RP-RAS (cycles) as DDR4-2133 15-15-15-36
AA-RCD-RP-RAS (cycles) as DDR4-1866 13-13-13-31
AA-RCD-RP-RAS (cycles) as DDR4-1600 11-11-11-27
there is no 2666 entry, while the RAM was sold as 2666 C16.
Part Number 2666 C16 Series
The timing does not allow 2666 C16:
Minimum RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD) 13.500 ns
In the past I forced 2666 which just worked fine. and was a little bit faster than the new RAM with C19.
But with both kits fitted the auto config seems to totally freak out.
thanks
