Ok, I finally have a grasp of OC'ng my machine @ 1:1 ratio.
I tried odd ratios and just raised my mem speed and got some good benchmarks for it. But this 1:1 ram:fsb gives me about 1500mb/s more bandwidth and have tried it and is faster. The problem is that my mobo cant go higher than 232fsb, and there is no volt setting for ram. I can raise my vcore to 1.55v but did not need it w/ these patriot XBLK DDR400.
Here what I have done: 232x9 to get 2088mhz for my A64 3000+ and ram at 232 MHz 2.5-3-3-8.wish could have done more if had better mobo, but for a noob it is a good starter. hopefully I can find a bios that can hotflash it. not yet because am waiting for chaintech updates since its a new mobo out w/ ULi m1689. nuff said lets get back to business.
my vcore is set to 1.475v. With this timing, machine is stable. and I get 7422mb/s bandwidth and broken down in my Everest benchmark to: 6099mb/s read, 2537 Mb/s write and 44.5 ns latency. I had better latency without 1:1 but lower bandwidth.
Please take a look at this Benchmark and tell me if is any good, or can do better.
Thanks for the help.
