Tweaks for PCMark2002 Memory

[Fredrik]

Just got my hands on some Corsair XMS PC3200 512MB memories and have started to bench in PCMark. Highest score reached so far is 7513 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?pcm=1188564. (Slowest timings)

First of all, is this score good, average or bad?
Second, what can I do to get a better score?

Thank you for any input!

thats a very good score. run at athe tightest timings possible and push the fsb as far as it will go.

I havn't tried lower the timings yet.. the memory stops at 173fsb (3:4->230MHz->460MHz DDR) Don't think I can do that much since 400MHz DDR is "standard" for them. Can't wait for my C1 2.4B to arrive!

thats pretty darn fast. try running 4:5 if thats availible with tighter timings. that might or might not get you better performance. try to at least get to cas 2 3-3-7

[Fredrik]

Nope, 4:5 is not possible on It7. And it wouldn't let me go higher on the memories since my cpu don't want to go over 2768MHz (peaked at 2.92GHz) stable enuff to run PCMark.
Right now I'm running cas2.5 3-3-7
Going to bed now.. will test cas2 tomorrow.. Honestly, I doubt it will work...

my it7 has 4:5 that works, i have to use it to run 175 fsb, 3:4 doesnt boot at that speed.
here is two of mine
175 fsb (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?pcm=1140669)
165 fsb (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?pcm=1166235)
