New Memory Tweaker for Intel Chipsets

[BenchZowner]

Can we get more info on how the performance modification is altering the mchbar registers? Thanks!

Could do, but first... I need some rest 'cause I'm barely hangin' on atm

For system specs see my sig.

Wow.... I cant believe how slow Anus and gigabyte are setting thier boards... I dont think Ive ever seen Performance level 8 on my board at any fsb, its always between 5 and 7 .... I use memset all the time and never had a successful change, I guess Abit sets it at lowest possible all the time

...Anus

Sorry..................its something I have been using for many years now

[luihed]

...Anus

I got it from him [pointing up] ....

I've seen Performance Level 4 on the P5K3 Deluxe, and 6 regularly.

Do you remember what your fsb was at the time?... Im curious if they set these levels differently with DD3 boards, must have been really quick....
