Hello guys. Having a bit of a problem here. While testing in sisoft I notice with full tweaks the bandwidth efficiency from 100-165fsb stays around 94 percent. This of course means if the maximum bandwidth of the bus (at 133.33mhz fsb, 266.66DDR) is 2.1gb/s then 2.1*0.94 = 1.974gb/s actual throughput.
Now, this is my problem. After going up to and greater than 166fsb the efficiency stays around 84%. Doesn't matter what timings I set in the bios (normal, turbo, etc) it's always 84%. Any ideas as to whats causing this?
Using:
Epox 8K5A2 (with I believe is the latest bios, not sure)
two Corsair PC2400XMS 256mb dimms in the furthest slots from the CPU.
Any help would be appreciated.
