New Memory Tweaker for Intel Chipsets

[G H Z]

Thank you FELIX, works good

[FELIX]

Here is beta2 version with Performance Level (by The Stilt): MemSet33beta2

We added Command Rate too, but it's only a Read only timings.
Also, improve reading memory frequency.

Warning: I don't try the Performance Level with P965, and I don't know the result.

thanks for the new version.

but it don´t read the memory frequency:



Asus P5K Deluxe
FSB 500
MEM 600

I'm going to try this on p965 right now

But so far, I've noticed trtp is reading wrong. I have dfi p965, and set trtp to 4 in bios. memset32 shows 4, but 33b2 shows 2 only.

performance level seems to have no effect. not sure if it's because it's read only or what. but it showed 12 initially. I was able to drop it all the way to 1, and mbench showed no differences whatsoever.

[ziddey]

range from 1-12

edit: also it looks like trtp is off by 2. When I set it from 2 to 4 in 33b2, it goes from 4 to 6 in 32.

[Stelios]

Doesn't work on p965 ... Tried with commando . I can select from 1 to 12 without lock ups , but the performance doesn't change .

[Brama]

On GA-P35-DQ6 performance level works perfectly.
From level 7 (my first stable setting at 390 MHz FSB) to level 12 there is more than 20% difference in everest memory and cache benchmark.

The strange thing is that at first launch of memset it displayes 11 as performance level even if the real performance level is 8 (checked with everest benchmark)

Is it possible to save a memory configuration and load as soon as memset starts?

Or do it by a command level start?

[Viss]

Works fine, great option and thanks a lot

Lowest i can get is 5 (+0.3 vMch). P35C bios F3b. Settings from bios:

Default = 8


Performance = 6


Performance = 5

[Hutch]

Felix I can't get the performance level to even read a # on my P965-DS3 board. When I open memset it has no value for the performance level and if I try to change it the apply button is grayed out.

Felix the latest Beta ( v3,3 Beta 2 ) isn't working with Asus P5K3 Deluxe at all ( it's a DDR3 P35 board ).

Let me know if I can help you with something

I will say it also works on the Gigabyte P35C-DS3R board with DDR3 ram. (F2 bios) I will get a image up later on.

Found out that if you boot with "DDR2-like" like timings on the P5K3 Deluxe ( probably applies to other DDR3 mobos as well ) ( timings like 7-6-6-15 ) [ tCL, tRCD, tRP, tRAS ] lets you use memtest ( performance level changing works perfectly ) [ haven't tested the timings thoroughly yet )

[Alex-Ro]

Hello m8,excellent tool.Probably in the next beta the SAVE option will be available,so that it could be applied at system start-up.My mainboard is a p35-dq6.Thanks.

Can we get more info on how the performance modification is altering the mchbar registers? Thanks!

Could do, but first... I need some rest 'cause I'm barely hangin' on atm

I ran my good 'ole benchmark script to compare game performance when moving to performance level 8 from 9. Here are the results:

For system specs see my sig.

[Grinch]

dunno if it has been posted or not..but this program works on my 680i mobo.

[G H Z]

Beta 2 works on Asus P5K Deluxe, Performance Level is also working.

Thanks to both you and the Stilt

[Gam3Ra]

Will soon be writen Vista 64bit version?

[Nikolasz]

dlin that tool..

[Kabauterman]

I confirm that it don't runs with DDR3

Gigabyte P35T-DQ6

[BenchZowner]

I didn't check if the timings are being set actually, but after a fresh OS install, the apply button is now enabled @ P5K3 Deluxe.
Will test it in a matter of hours and report back Felix

[Hutch]

Performance level works now on my Gigabyte P965-DS3/S3 Rev 1 C1. The only time it doesn't work is if the divider is set to 1:1 with Cas 5. It's very hard to change levels downward from original, usually instantly freezes. At 451mhz FSB it boots at Level 12.

Has anyone found that giving the mch more voltage allows them to select a lower performance level?
