    i was under the impression that 2,2,2,2,11 was best for the NF7, i could be wrong thou

    speed is 215mhz, i got a 2500 that don't like high fsb's

    whats the deal with BH-6 then if it turns out that one of my sticks is that

    Depends on the FSB. Lower FSB = lower Tras.

    If you look right above that a whole ram chip is missing.

    there is a good possibility that there are not supposed to be resistors there.

    im wondering, what does this have to do with "an AMD overclockers dream?"
    lol
    nice find on the ram though
    and yes as jfr0 said there is a possibility that there were never resistors there in the first place

    yes there was, as i still got one of them somewhere, no point in RMA'ing as i won't get BH-5 back will I? if i can get the same resistors i can easily fix it

    as for "an AMD overclockers dream" tis the best memory to have in an AMD rig IMO

    Don't see why this is specifically aimed at AMD, low latency is the best memory for any rig.
    Windows 7 + SSD:
    Mode: AHCI, default Microsoft driver or latest Intel RST
    Defrag: Off
    Hibernation: Off (use Sleep mode, recommend a UPS)
    Indexing: On (it only indexes a few locations, not your whole system unless you tell it to)
    Page File: On (set to the minimum of 16MB if you have a large amount of RAM, disabling not recommended)
    Prefetch: On
    Superfetch: On (RAM is always faster than an SSD - use it)
    System Restore: Off (with regular backups)
    Browser Cache: RAM Only, Disk Cache Off (How to with Chrome)
    Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, Downloads to HDD (Public Libraries too, see above link about junctions)
    UAC: On!

    My idea of an AMD overclockers dream would be some BH-5 that will run a decent FSB.
    I've heard it all, I've seen it all, I've done it all. I just don't remember any of it.

    I can "manage" 250x10 @ 3v easy, it's for how long that's causing me problems.

    My personal expirience with NF7 gave me same results or better with 2-2-2-11 over 2-2-2-5. Using as benchmark sandra. I´ve tried those results with 230FSB up to 245FSB.
