I have my 2x512 PDP XBLK (pc3200) overclocked to 300, 1:1- but confused why 2T gives me better result than 1T. below is a screenshot of my super pi 32M indicating .63 second shorter than Super Nade's shown in Sticky "memory timing datadbase", and Everest also shows 600mb/s gained bandwidth. Is my mobo 2T actually 1T or am I @ 2T and there is no gain running 1T vs 2T.
I am totally confused. HELP PLEASE. :shrug:

Nice screen shot... Gave me some pointers on what to download in terms of memory benchies & other utilities... lol. =) thanks.

And you want to disable it?

A64 shows 2T is enabled, and if I disable it comp crashes. Never could load win when setting to 1T in BIOS.
I dont understand why 2T giving slitely better result than 1T. Both, mine and Super Nad's Rams are same spec.. but his is running @ 1T.
I know 2T does not deminish performance by much as we keep hearing, but outperfoming 1T? is beyond me.
I wish Super Nade see's this post and help out.
feedbacks from those who have tried theirs both settings(1T, 2T) sure would help me understand this dilama. I am guessing ASrock's BIOS has a bug, and 2T is actually 1T.

First if you want to disable 2T you will need to lower your freq or otherwise it will keep crashing. The reason why 2T is giving you better results is because it's making 2 clock cycles as opposed to one (which is faster but not more stable).

My suggestion would be do drop down your HTT to your last known setting at 1T and slowly work your way up from there. The timings that you have now will get you better stability but if you want better performance try keeping RAS to CAS at 3 if possible.

Also to mention; if SuperNade has exact same RAM as you don't expect same results. When it comes to RAM it all depends which batch you got and he may have better one then yours.
