I had good lcok with my geils on my p4...My AMD64 machine could not touch same levels even with more vdimm....I think the A64's with onboard controller are more sensitive...My geils could not run cas 3 no matter the speed, HTT, or other timings.

yea, my geil is ment for P4 systems. I really wish I got Low Latency Corsair for the same price

The problem with me understanding things in terms of ratio is probably due to the fact that my BIOS has no mention of a ratio other than A CPU/FSB but thats in the description of the multiplier (12x).

In the menu I see:

CPU External Freq.: (250)
CPU Ratio: 12
DRAM Freq.: 266,320,400,Auto (It's on auto as of now)
AGP/PCI 66.66/33.33, 72.73/36.36, 80.00/40.00 (On auto as well)
DDR Ref. Voltage" 2.55,2.65,2.75,2.85 (on auto as well)
I can also change DRAM timings but I have that set to determined by SPD which is an auto config. as well.

Here are a few CPU-Z shots of the memory stuff (I have 2 paired sets of memory for dual channel).

Are you running 4x256 sticks and the 2 differnet pairs are made by different manufacturers? Since your sticks have different specifications, I doubt that both of the different brands will perform at 250mhz (500). You are currently running at 3:2 ratio. I think in your case the ratio is simply represented by the DRAM settings => 266 (3:2), 320 (5:4), 400 (1:1). So if you want to adjust to 1:1 ratio, simply select 400 and it should do it automatically. You can just try it at 205FSB and see if ram speed goes up.

Yes I have 2 brands in there and 4x256mb. I was able to figure out how to get it to 1:1 but what I found odd was that I was able to post with a 235mhz speed but then my Bios had a bad checksum and I was forced to reinstall the Bios (I did this all the way down to 215mhz reinstalling my bios everytime :| )

The only thing that I felt could be my problem was that the 3 4 4 8 timing with auto (divider? the 1T, 64T thing). Or having the Dram burst set at 4 instead of 8 was causing the memory to send scrambled signals to the system. I'm kinda bummed because my memory is fairly good, not the best but not the cheapest either and I was hoping to get at least to 240mhz.

Could the fact that there are 2 brands with different stock timings really prevent better results? I guess I could pull a pair and see what happens.

Thanks for the help man.

It's a 2.0GHz Dothan running at 2.0GHz on an AOpem 855 desktop board.

I thought dothan could beat A64's in pi...

Here's what I saw.. 35:22 with 2.0Ghz A64. Albeit with 222HTT with 2-2-2-7 1T but 8 seconds faster???

interesting... are you running win2k? whats mem?

Would you mind running 1M Ralf? Maybe it differs accross tests. From what I've seen Dothan beats 64 at same speed with 1M..

I got 42sec@2.0

It is a week 47 winchester.

I have only ran prime95 for like an hour on it so far.
I actually topped out at 2.85 Link
It might make a little bit more if i up the voltage, not sure yet.

Nice one, P-Diddy. My chip has more than my mobo, or I could probably hang. Hats off to you ATM. Sweet work.


P.S. I'm about ready to destroy the slowest time with my Pentium 166 that has a coal burner instead of a PSU... But it'll take a day or two to get results, much less post them!

I got a new time 27m 28s
with my new overclock of 2.78 ghz
can't get 32M calculation to work higher than 278HTT but can get 1M to work up to 285HTT

That's really nice...where did you purchase your chip?
