Gigabyte EX58-UD5/Extreme Discussion Thread

[naokaji]

I just checked on mine again, it does change round trip, but only by a tiny little bit, talking 1 -2 here. But the difference is so small it might as well just be a incorrectly displayed value in the Bios / cputweaker, that is with F6 on the ud5.

with 200 bclk, x8 ram multi, x16 uncore, x36 qpi, x20 cpu, turbo + ht on / rest off, cas 7, trcd 7, trp 7, tras 20, cmd 1 (all subs on auto) everest gave me the following:

peformance enhance: standard
Read: 17727
Write: 14462
Copy: 20300
Latency 45.8

peformance enhance: turbo
Read: 17924
Write: 14454
Copy: 21363
Latency 45.3

peformance enhance: extreme
Read: 17215
Write: 14468
Copy: 20195
Latency 45.3

I've bumped up the speed a little to see if it behaves different at higher speeds
with 200 bclk, x10 ram multi, x20 uncore, x36 qpi, x20 cpu, turbo + ht on / rest off, cas 8, trcd 8, trp 8, tras 18, cmd 1 (all subs on auto) everest gave me the following:

peformance enhance: standard

Latency 40.3

peformance enhance: turbo
Read: 21227
Write: 17424
Copy: 23736
Latency 40.2

peformance enhance: extreme
Read: 21206
Write: 17431
Copy: 24866
Latency 40.3

My conclusion? something is fishy in performance enhance land, there is not even enough difference between standard and extreme to make up for the variation between bench runs.
