to clear my mind of course, so I cleared my mind and.........
when i did i figured out why my 1333 ram is about as good as or a little better than my 2400 ram.
this little formula right here tells the tail, tCAS/MHZ* ramspeed.
the 2000 is 2 micro seconds.
my 1333 = 5*1000/666.5, result= 7.5 (1333)
my 1866= 9*1000/933, result= 9.6 (1866)
my 2400= 10*1000/1200, result= 8.3 (2400)
so my 1333 does whatever it is in 7.5 micro seconds.
so my 1866 does whatever it is in 9.6 micro seconds.
so my 2400 does whatever it is in 8.3 micro seconds.
looks like my 1333 ram is better than my 2400 ram.
looks like my 1866 should be avoided if I dont reduce tCAS.
from testing I have found that ram means very little in anything other than benchmarks and you should only really worry about getting good stuff that works with the rest of your system, screw the speed.
has my everclear kept me on the straight and narrow or lead me astray?
