    2x512 285mhz 2-2-2 only 3.4v

    I'm very surprised about this, and I'm doubting it myself. Reason is, I have to lower my cpu multipliar to 4x which causes very low memory bandwidth so I didn't bother to include any sandra shots and the superpi is only verification that it is at least somewhat stable. I havn't done any thorough testing to verify for stabilit.

    Question I'm wondering though is this. Is my memory really this good, and it's the memory controller limited, or does lowering the multipliar actually just reduce stress on the memory and thats why I'm able to clock this high and amazingly only with 3.4v

    As regards to how my memory normally does, it is stable at 240mhz 3.2v (10x multi) and 265mhz 3.6v (9x multi). So I'm hoping my memory is this good, but I'm thinking there's more to the multi than I think.

    edit: oops, forgot the pic

    1140/5 = 228 MHz
    Your memory run @ 228 Mhz not 285 MHz
