There is a relation between the PL and the fsb you want to run, thatīs for sure.
The AnandTech site makes it really clear: http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=3208&p=1
But the point I am still wondering about is if I can take the AnandTech. article just for my P45 chipset. Right now I am running a fsb of 470 MHz and a PL of 8. If I lower the PL to 7 my system wouldnīt start.
If I had a X48 Chipset the formular says I could because: [tRD-(tCL/N)]>[x/N]
N= FSB-RAM-Divider => 7-(5/4)= 5.75 is greater than 2.75/(5/4)=2,2
2.75 is for fsb> 466 MHz.
Is it possible to run a PL of 8 together with a fsb of 470 by increasing the vnb?
My vnb right now is 1.2950v (=1,26v real), CPU VTT is 1.23v.
Do you think I should just force the PL of 7 increasing the vnb?
Well considering I was running PL7 with 2gb sticks and dram clk skews at cha d50ps, chb norm with ~1.55v Vnb at 481fsb until i got sick of fixing it up everytime bios broke the clock skews but it was stable and no problems at all! the problem was the rf bios screwing up mchbar registers.
