DRAM:FSB ratios

Go ahead and tell me raising your ram past the FSB frequency will show a difference in gameplay...

800mhz to 1066mhz probably not, but 450mhz to 800mhz yes and I have seen benchmarks that back that statement up. Im not gong to spend time digging that up to prove a point to you.

Ok, 533 to 1066 is more of a difference, and realisticly didnt do squat. If your not going to show evidence so support your point, then dont bother mentioning it. You can thank Varmint for not talking out of his ass and actually showing something to support you.

Thanks for the links Varmint. What i find most interesting are the first 3, if you compare them, 133mhz below the 1:1 FSB on the ram shows a much larger drop than 133mhz above the 1:1 FSB on the ram shows an improvement. Pretty clear that the ram speed is a larger bottleneck than the FSB.

I never said it would make a huge difference. I did think that it would make more of a difference than those benchs show. You on the other hand are talking about a fsb bottleneck, or something, and saying that it would be better to leave his ram at 1:1 which those very benchmarks show why he shouldn't. We were both wrong for different reasons and in different ways. All Im saying is you can get alittle more performance at no cost or wear and tear on your hardware why not?

Yeah, until I saw that article I was under the same impression, higher than 1:1 ratios didn't gain you anything. I guess it's good to try to max both FSB and mem clock.
 
My E4600 has been running OC'd for over a year, no issues - see sig (idle low 20's C, load 58 C). These cpu's seem to be fsb limited at around 350MHz, but playing with the multiplier will get you a decent OC. With my mobo to unlock the 1:1 ratio you need to be at 333MHz or higher....Vcore in BIOS set at 1.2750v, getting 1.256v in SpeedFan & CPU-Z.
