(other than the price atm :X)



Hmm is it just me or the screenies are identical? Can it be you screenshot the 5-5-5-18 2 times? or is the proxy at work being weird oO.
Anyway, is the difference in bandwidth between 5-5-5-18 and 6-5-5-18 supposed to be big? Cant try out right now.. Was under the impression PL is way more of a factor.. Is a PL of 6 physically possible at 6-x-x-x :x. Never had the time to tweak my mobo much

PS sorry if I make some weird conclusion, am pretty new to the developments over the last few years
In the first screenshot I didn't include the benchmark for 6-5-5-18. The 2nd one included the benchmark and the 3rd one included the benchmark with timings set at 5-5-5-18.

Going from PL 8 to PL 7 yielded a boost of 250mb/s on the read score and -3ns on the latency. I hadn't tweaked the timings at all there. The PL can probably be brought down to 5 or 6 at this FSB.
