basically this value seems to be part of the PL(performance level) value you see in maxmem but i'm not 100% sure it's completely the same

i don't actually use a Gigabyte machine as my 24/7 system so i don't really set the same thing i am suggesting you guys

what i do on benching setups is loosen it up to 8/9 and then tighten back in windows....reason for that is that i've found a FSB boot wall on yorkfield for example while setting a lower value and it was doing my head in why i could not get the damn thing to boot past 410Mhz FSB in last set of testing for example.....after loosening it i was able to boot and bench at 450Mhz without any issues on water heh

Guys, to use lower static tread value with high end video cards installed, back off on the sub timings particularly tRFC, tRTP, tWTR and tWR with all 4 values in bios set to 42, 5,8,5 respectively i can use static tread = 6 no probs so far

To go tighter on subtimings and/or lower static tRead you need more memory and GMCH voltage - alot more!

8x400FSB 3:4 533Mhz 4-4-4-8 on memory
