Has anyone installed the 800MHZ RAM on their Sammy yet? Where I live the only RAM I can find is a Kingston 800MHZ 2GB module – and the Kingston site actually recommends this for the NC10. Anyone had problems with 800MHZ – I presume it will automatically be underclocked so I won’t have to change any settings?
Did anyone ever find out whether under XP the shared video memory is increased if the RAM is upgraded? I know if you’re running Vista this does happen.
Yeah from what others have said it will automatically underclock so there’s no need to reconfigure anything.
I have a 2GB 800MHz module in mine working fine, it automatically runs at 533MHz in the NC10. Same goes for the 667MHz modules.
XP doesn’t increase the shared video memory, Vista or Linux will.
Does video RAM size matter in case of nc10? I wouldn’t expect any change in performance.
800 mhz works fine, I am running Sammy brand PC6400 2GB 800Mhz with no issues at all. have virtual memory turned off as well..
Ok, but does it run @ 800? I have an 800 chip in there from Patriot right now, bios 3CA and it’s @ 667.
I’ve got a CL4 667 coming in from the egg, but I’d rather have the 800 if it can run that. Unsure at this point if bios or speed settings would help.
The NC10 doesn’t support running its RAM at 800 MHz. This is in the FAQ here as well as in many other threads.
The FAQ thread that’s not in the sub forum heading of NC10? Hehe, found it.
According to Intel, the 945GSE’s only speced for 533 and since it runs @ 2:5 divider for 667, I just figured perhaps a newer bios had some goodies for me to play with.
The NC10’s come with DDR800 RAM as standard – but it runs at DDR667 it seems.
As it is – atm DDR800 is just as cheap as DDR667 (in the UK at least) so Samsung went with that.
Running 1x 2GB DDR800 in mine atm 🙂
The patriot module I got from Fry’s actually tosses in a little CL4 even though it’s clocked downed to 667. SPD reads lower CL values for lesser mhz, so that’s nifty.
But the fancy Mushkin 4-4-4-12 5300 just came in today! It’s pretty.
