How much of a difference is there between Cas2 and CAS 1.5?

Zero for me, I've ran pcmark04, everest, superpi, sandra, aquamark, 3dmarks and didn't gain squat to go from 2 to 1.5, I'd also compare 1.5-2-2-5 to 2-2-2-6 on my Redline and didn't see any difference either!

I agree, there's hardly much difference between them, even when it comes to stability.

Nice clocks Dumo!

I'll be getting my Redlines back soon (RMA - Burnt on the 5V rail) and i'll try see if i can get anywhere close.

I came across Geil's upcoming Ultra-X memory on Anandtech today - Rated at DDR400 1.5-2-2-5

"The new DFI nForce4 boards support CAS 1.5 as a BIOS choice, and possibly a few other high-end boards. CAS 1.5 sounds impressive, but AMD tells us that they do not support CAS 1.5 in their on-chip memory controller."

So CAS 1.5 is not of much use , not for the time being anyway on AMD, but I can't help wondering if/when they'll support it. I sure hope Geil know what they are doing tho.

Got these babies in my orange memory slots ATM running them at 260 Mhz 1.5-2-2-5 3.3VDimm.BTW the memory is 2Mhz faster at CAS 1.5(272Mhz maxed stable 3.6v) than CAS 2.0(270 maxed).May be is CAS 1.5 optimized

260Mhz 1.5-2-2-5 @ 3.3v is impressive . I wanna see how the 2x512Mb modules will perform. How about benchmarks results between CAS 1.5 and 2 at 260?

Running SuperPi 1M CAS 1.5 and 2.0 -exactly same condition and processes
running
1.5


and 2.0



1.5 is nanoseconds faster

Nice results Dumo
i got 270MHz out of the box with my Redlines

But what bios are you using?
Which memory slots (yellow/orange)?
And what dram and data drive strength settings?

Thanks

G.Skill BH-GH work well on Dothan, too!! The BH5-UTT will run on the i875/i865 chipset whereas the CH5-UTT will NOT.
