I rather stick to the TRUE,effort invested in lapping is priceless,I cannot put a price tag on that,or noone would pay for it at least Yesterday I found out my 3870 blue PCB has a stock unlocked BIOS without the 862 MHz limit so another nice surprise. Only thing left to do is check ballistix in slots 3 and 4, must make sure that its no the DIMM slots 1 and 2 that are gone bad.

    I did run mine at 1120 Mhz and it had no problem, they do overclock well. And grats on your lucky card!
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Nice I will put a blower on them first,and then try to get CL4 as high as possible. Btw,do u or anyone else knows how much subtimings affect performance? I mean will 4-4-4-12 with higher subtimings on lower frequency (for example 940-ish Mhz) be faster then 5-5-5 on 1100 MHz but with tighter subtimings?
