I just read a post claiming WR at cas3 on badaxe, now to hit cas3 on badaxe at 1100+ you need to be on the 1333 strap, as i explained this allows the memory controller to run the ram at much higher speeds and lower latency but overall the performance will suck...so in reality the WR is worthless.

If you really want to run memory ~1100MHz with 400FSB, try Badaxe. I guarantee you the performance will be lower than 800MHz 1:1 on your board.

ahh the infamous week 24. ..
L624 = week 24 , try to get week 25 next time... week 24 sux ...

Where do you get that Week 25 > Week 24? From your experience?
