Hi everyone,

One quick question. I will be getting an AMD Athlon 64 3500+. If I lower the multi to 10x, and raise the FSB to 220, I will get higher bandwith than with 11x 200, right?

Of course, but you should be able to run it much faster than that.

Stock volts get mine to 10x250.

OK, I just wanted to make sure.

Thanks for the info :up:

At 09x280 I got 7.3K in sandra
At 11x230 which is where I am now because of BIOS issues I get 6.8 K sandra

The faster you can get the RAM running the better your bandwith, someone posted numbers on how much timings are worth, I want to say it was something like;
200mhz 2-2-2-5 = 220mhz 2.5-3-3-7 = 225mhz 2.5-4-3-7 = 235mhz 3-4-4-8

but I might be off by a few. I think it was the "waiting to buy TCCD? Well dont!" thread

also nice to see ya around TekX!
