Interesting Mem Timings Article

[pakotlar]

I know...the hated tomshardware. However this article puts to rest a lot of my questions. I think it is a very well made article (my only question is why they didn't use 2225 timings on AMD platforms).

However this article puts to rest a lot of my questions

maybe my thread here will help too.




I too wondered why they used cheap ass memory with horrible timings on the AMD rig, and corsair XMS for Intel...in that last a64 review. Almost sickening. I mean i'm no reviewer, but if you're comparing something, shouldn't both be given the same things as the other, knowing that AMD platforms take a bigger hit with timings than P4s.

Kind of discouraging that mem timings hardly do any difference at all.
