Clock per Clock Comparison: 680i vs 975X

[illuminati-hwt]

Good tests. both part 1 and 2.. :-)

although,

Setting the tRAS to 4 isnt smart. The timing has to complete two cycles because it ends/closes too fast. This might be screwing with the results.
tRAS should in this case be minimum 6. Sry to say it :-/
tRAS should not be lower than tCL+tRCD.

The low tRC on 680i might be hurting performance too. Not sure though. Dont let tRC lower than tRAS+tRP.


edit.. lower than tCL+tRCD

It's not hurting performance

There's a 3rd part covering more stuff

And fast close doesn't occur every time

tRC = tRAS + tRP
