Does ratio make much difference?

Running my 2.8 @ 3.3 @ 5:4 . From what ive been told the divider for pentium 4 doesn;t really make that much of a difference. True or would i get better performance with a lower divider ?
 
You do see a performance increase with a 1:1 memory divider. In fact it should make more of a difference than on an Athlon as the Intel's are very dependant on memory bandwidth. So a higher divider actually runs your memory at higher speeds than if you ran it at 3:2 or 5:4. 1:1 means that the bus speed of the memory is syncronous with the FSB speed of the processor. That's one of the reasons why the 800MHz CPU's are better than their 533MHz/400MHz counterparts are.
