This old trusty Corsair rocks with IC7_new bios 1.7>>>>>
Now, I can run this mem with 5:4 @ cas 2/5/2/2 settings.
Lower timings can get pretty close to Newer PC4000 DDR with CAS 3/8/4/4.
Now the big question, Is 1:1 with CAS 3/8/4/4 really faster than 5:4 CAS 2/5/2/2 running at the same FSB ? How much faster? and worth the cost?
Heres the screen shots:
