Asus P5W way faster than Bad Axe

Hmmmm I had it forced at 1333fsb... I better go read.

That's exacty why It seems that forcing 1333fsb strap on BadAxe does "something" to this board that allows for supposedly HUGE memory OCs. Now, there are two options:

1. either 1333fsb strap looses some MCH settings to the point that memory performance is just crap but allows for some unreal frequecies of up to DDR-1100 or DDR2-1200 8-3-3-3.0 or 8-2-2-3.0 or
2. none of the monitoring software can detect the real speed and/or latencies the RAM is actually running at

Your finding seems to prove that at forced 1333fsb, BadAxe seems to have some horrible memory performace. Thanks for posting that

Anytime bachus... we're all here to learn . Well I'm going to run 32m again this time back at 1067 and see what the time is.

This certainly does seem to be the missing variable. Though I think we do need to try a side by side comparison of some of these boards (I have the BadAxe and the Asus, but I wouldnt mind putting some numbers together) Anyways, I await to hear if Gocchin can pull the BadAxe numbers closer or if his Asus is smokin it
