• Intel i5 655k -Memory Performance
    10 replies, posted
I just put my new rig together, with the CPU being a Intel Core i5 - 655k. It scores a 7.2 in Windows. But the memory only get's a 5.5. (G Skill 4GB x 2GB) everything default. I adjusted the timings, and other stuff. But I'm unable to score higher (buyers from Newegg, got atleast a 7). I heard it could be the integrated graphics. Allocating memory, slowing down my performance. In the BIOS (Mobo: evga p55 le) I did find something relating to it. Disabled it. Still getting a 5.5 Anybody know why? I'm frustrated as fuck.
Is it running in dual channel? And it's running at the correct Mhz? It should be showing up at 1/2 the Mhz you bought it as; if it's 1600 Mhz RAM it would be 800Mhz in Speccy, 516ish for 1033, etc.
Dual Channel. Yes. The Frequency is correct. Running at DDR 1333 with it being at 600 MHZ. [b]EDIT:[/b] It says total available graphics memory is 2GB (I only have a 512MB card) so I assume there's a problem here.
I don't know, post a pic of the RAM tab in speccy, and give me a link to the RAM you bought. Have you set the voltage as well?

No luck. Everything is currently at defaults.

I don't know what to do about your GPU using extra RAM, there might be something about that in the BIOS as well.
I got my ram to 800 MHZ @ 1600. Still getting a 5.9. :sad:
My 1600 RAM is at 7.5 as well, are you OCing at all? What's your NB at?
I'm now OC'd to 3.8 GHZ. Timings are the same. 9-9-9-1. Voltage was up'd. Divider was set lower to keep it at 1600. NB at 2.8 GHZ
9 9 9 1? Shouldn't it be 9 9 9 24
