Just trying to figure this out...I'm boggled ATM:

http://img91.echo.cx/img91/6300/everestwrite8il.jpg

My Read and Latency is in check with what I've seen out of similar setups. My memory timings are all set to "Auto" in BIOS, except for the 2.5-3-3-7.....but even when every setting is fine tuned and tightened....I'm still only at 2300-2400MB/s.....makes no sense, why am I rating so low compared to a stock 3500+ nF3 setup?

My rig in sig is the same way, even though I was running 250mhz with tight timings. Was even slower then a 865 at stock =\ my read speed was way better though

So is there anything I can be doing to "fix" this or is it an Everest issue? Just seems weird...and kinda bugs me.

Are you running 2T?


EDIT'' even if you were it still shouldn't be that low. :confused:

No, 1T.

Weird thing is that my read is fine...but my write is so much lower then it should be...maybe I'm wrong, but wouldn't they go hand in hand and both be suffering...or vise versa?

Regardless, I'd like to at least get this figured out, so that I can know if the low write score is effecting any other scores or benchies.

bank interleave ? normally bank interleave gives such low score for mine

Bank Interleave is disabled...boosted stability a LOT as I was heading for 300x9 1:1 and it's staying off.

Its the program, mines the same way =\ maybe only a certain combo is fast for it. I'll see what happens at stock speeds though later

Good call, I've actually never run Everest Write at stock speeds....

weclome in the world of dfi nf4 memory tweaking :)

post a a64tweaker shot because your screens dont show everything.

Also..i would set "idle cycle counter" to AUTO...and Interleave always on...also..your TRCD is a bit high.....i guess some other values of yours are screwy too ?!

my settings: (but i am constantly tweaking)..just for a first idea:

His tRCD is high? Its lower than yours :confused: Some people go for the max with 2.5-4-3-7, others try to max out the RAM with 2.5-3-3-7, usually whichever works out best with the available multipliers and with the CPU's max Mhz. 2.5-4-3-7 usually needs 10-15Mhz more to catch up to 2.5-3-3-7 though.

Well, this is what I've been able to do so far...gotten a little bit closer:

Not to bad on the timings I figured....haven't tested them with much more then 1M stability...but it's goin' good so far. :)

Don't remember for sure but there was either a bug or something else. By the way, enabling bank interleave will give you more bandwidth.

Well, a LITTLE more...not much difference though...

Bank Interleave Enabled:

Dynamic idle counter enabled should give a little bandwidth increase too :)
