Bad memory performance of F revision chips fixed!

[Sentential]

This news from the Inq may provide a reason for Agenda2005's comment in my other post about Conroe:



I guess the first F revision spin had a bad memory bug which caused memory performance to suck, so this is probably why that "someone" referred to in Agenda2005's post had a lower performing chip than previous revisions.

Anyway, I hope this is true because if it is, it means that the F revision chips will NOT be slower than the E revision

Even if it does delay them somewhat, I'd rather AMD get it right before they start selling them.

What was said above is infact true. However the issue was that the dividers were not being properly applied (instead of 1:1 it would revert the RAM to PC2-3200 not 5300) Memtest showed 2,000MB/S with the RAM at "3200"

(I figured I needed to correct the INQ as they did not explain what the bug was and thus making it appear to be more serious)
