hey Coop, i just happened to do some testing today with 4x1gb VS 2x1gb on the P5B-Dlx with none other than some Ballistix PC8500 (both tracers and non).

i was testing at 400*9 2:3 2.22v (DMM) at 5-5-4-5. i found very little difference between 4x1gb at 5-5-4-5. in fact, the 2x1gb was consistantly faster by a few tenths at 5-5-4-5 600MHz with reasonably tight sub-timings.

13m 10.422 / 5545 / 600MHz / 2gb

13m 10.750 / 5545 / 600MHz / 4gb

i got similar results after multiple runs of the above settings. at 5-4-4-5 600MHz, i got about the same results with the 4x1gb...the sub-timings were slightly looser with the 4x1gb though to run 32M.

i also did some testing previoulsy on the QuadGT, i found with loose sub-timings at 500*7 1:1 there was about a 2 second advantage to 4x1GB but when tightening up the subs...that shrunk to 1 second or less.
