Looking at our previous overclocking experience with Micron D9PFJ based memory, the ICs perform their best using even primary timings. So, to keep things quick and simple, we will narrow our testing procedure down to five simple timing sets.



In a typical Micron fashion, voltage scaling is almost linear the entire way. While undervolting the memory won’t get you much past the specified 933MHz, use of higher voltages definitely pays off as our memory started closing in on numbers achievable only using the legendary Elpida Hypers.
Similar to 4GB modules which have started to fall apart past 1000MHz, 2Gb sticks become twitchy once memory frequency passes 1100. Like before, we couldn’t figure out the culprit, so we’ll write it off to the lack of compatibility.
1.85V is not where things actually stop. The only reason we didn’t go higher in our full stability testing is us not being sure what affects will such voltages have in long-term use. If you don’t care about safety limits, you can give the memory more juice and see if fly. Not being able to resist, we did so too and here’s the results we ended up with (you can find more in the gallery):
