Brief P45 Bandwidth Testing

[Shiranui Gen-An]

500 FSB, 4GHz, 600 MHz CL 5, tRD 8

I got close with my new E8400 on the DFI P35 board, but my read score is still a bit lower. Did you tweak the subtimings?

No, all the subtimings were left on auto for those runs. You would need to run tRD 7 on the P35 to be equivalent to the P45, so if you replicated my settings you would score a little lower in read BW. Clock for clock, the P35 has a higher read BW and lower latency, but a lower write & copy BW when compared to the P45. Probably just need to do some more tweaking.

This is what I get with my Maximus II Formula and the same E8400 with my CellShock 8000 C5 kit. The read score is lower than the P35 and your P45, but I guess I'll just have to chalk it up to individual differences in the components.
