NFORCE 2 timings investigation results

[unrealneo]

Here's my log of results, with an average of three 3D tests for each, unless in the case of an abnormal result.

Athlon XP 1800+ Tbred @ 12.5 x 133
MSI K7N2-DELTA
2x256 ADATA DDR450
Tyan Radeon 9600Pro @ 500/600

EDIT: 133fsb due to ADATA RAM not liking 166mhz RCD @ 2.

good job with that..


kinda weird thats not much difference in 3dmark with cas2~3.0

Nice work! Interesting how different timings give the same results.

it's all in the ras to ras and ras precharge timings.;)

Thank you for this very informative post, it seems RCD and RP make a bigger difference than CAS!

2.5-2-2-11 clocked higher than 2-2-2-11? thats weird
i might change it then

wouldn't these results be more exaggerated at higher fsb? say, 220+?:)

looks like there could be maybe upto 20fps diff between RCD 3 and 2 at high fsb, maybe.:eek:

damn ADATA wont run RCD @ 2 @ 166 even.:stick:

I had TwinMOS/TwinMOS PC3200 RAM once, wouldn't do RCD @ 2 @ 150+
