PC2700 Ram Bandwidth Int 2500 mb/s Sisoft Sandra on dual channel memory?(HELP plz)
Good evening ppl,
I know this question may have been asked, but should not I get higher benchies with dual channel memory controller of an Nforce 2 chipset?
My setup is as such:
A7N8X Deluxe revision 2.0
2 sticks of 256 meg of DDR333 and 1 stick of 512 meg of DDR400.
Bank one(slot 1 and 2) contains the two sticks of 256 and bank 2(slot 3) contains the last stick of 512 meg of ram.
I have tested the board with only the two stick of ram (256 meg each) in slot 1 and 3 as well as in slot 2 and 3 but the benchmark does not improve.
What gives? Cpu is AMD XP 2100+ running at 166 x 13 and the memory is running at 166 mhz as well.
My memory timings are 6-2-2-2-2.
Is this board bad? I have upgraded bios to 1.6 as well as installed the latest Nforce 2 all in one driver set.
To add to this, my Asus A7M266D with one cpu at 152x15 does 2400 mb/s Int and with two cpu/s does 2000 mb/s so I know that the dual channel setup is not functioning on the A7N8X Deluxe.
As always, I'd be immensely gratefull.
