Thanks Franc:)
Heres quick comparo @ 3-3-3-autos/704 and 4-4-4-autos/1006 with Team Xtreem 6400C3....

so 1t is SLIGHTLY better.
Probly so:)
It needs more testing with higher cpu mhz. like 5Ghz and up for 3Ds.
Also if some ddr2 5400 with default cas3 can run 1T with this board....it would be nice:)
nice review. I am having one hell of a time with quad core and this board.
This board definitely is strange, it needs some bios help.
Why are the runs so slow?

680i's ram performance is just sad.
Nice effort + comparison though.
I know, I do not know what Kunaak was smoking when he said that 975 and 680i have similar chipset latencies...

Thanks for starting this thread, Dumo :up:
I hope you don't mind me adding some of my results? I did not want to create a new thread for the same analysis, so I joined the fun here :D
Enjoy :)

So, 1T is quite fun, isn't it? :) Although I can boot to Windows and run e.g. SPi 1M @ DDR2-900 5-3-3-3.0-1T, it was not very stable for most other stress benchmarks. Also, getting even DDR2-858 8-3-3-3.0-1T to be ORTHOS or HCI Memtest stable, borders a miracle :lol:
I will do some more testing as I hope to somehow get DDR2-900 5-3-3-3.0-1T to be at least SPi32M stable? So far, no joy :) But I really like the kick 1T gives in this particular benchmark!
:toast:
Yep, 1T is fun:toast: ..Really nice clock on those 8888 Bachus:up: ...Reminds me of 6400C3 which imo is a 'free for all fsb/Dram' memory.
My little test ... on eVGA nF680i SLI + Corsair XMS2 8500C5 + C2D@3600MHz, difference between 1T and 2T is +- zero ...

Dominators are on the way ...
Looks like the next challenge is to get 1000MHz 1T with 4-4-4 timings or less, and you'll have the ultimate performance that even DDR1350+ can't match. :)
I like this lower latency stuff, it's very Athlon-ish. ;)
question:
How many Mhz in mem OC (same volt, same timing) do you lose setting 2T -> 1T on average ???
From the results I've seen, usually around 300MHz or more lost to 1T.Quote:

mine HZ runs 4-3-3 @ 1200 2.5v :D
800MHz/3-3-3-1T was faster than 1100MHz/4-4-4-2T from my testing. I couldn't run many tests, however, because 1T wasn't stable enough.

i never doubt you guess2098 but thats insane for gskill HZ's
unless you have the PC8000 HZ's then thats D9GKX
i think all D9 can do 4-3-3 from 1000 to its max (GCT, GMH, GKX)
mine HZ is 1000 GKX tho
4-3-3 1t :)
