The overclock should make it a lot faster than it actually is imo.
What do you guys think?
What could be the problem?
Thanks

maybe it doesn't like the latencies on the memory, you are running 1T right?

move this to AMD

I'm surprised it's that good with those timings. Post a tweaker ss.

Pretty sure all the readings are acurate.
Sorry, didnt realise there was an amd section, was in a rush. Please move to amd.

I dont think so, my 144 @ 2.9ghz did 29.219, and I had my RAM @ 2-3-2-5

May not be really comparable, but my venice @ 2600, and ram @ 217.3 Mhz 2-2-3-5 did 32.766 sec.

That is without extensive tweaking btw, hope it helps.

Like I said in AMD, my 144 @ 2.9 only did 29.219, and that was with 2-3-2-5 timings.

Setting the Refresh Rate to 200Mhz 3.9us and the Idle Cycle Limit to 4clks cut 0.3s off my 1M time. You should also try running CAS at 2.5, and drop the Tras to 10.

@toreide - memory as sig, it is running at 1:1 at 290mhz

looks much better, you're on an nf4 right?

Most people set siperpi to realtime too give a little bit better times since you are probably comparing to other peoples screens.
