What exactly are ganged and unganged memory modes? What would give better real world performance (RWP)? What would be the best option for 4 DIMMs? Does this stress the NB or the IMC?
I heard that overclocking the NB bus can result in faster L3 cache latency/bandwidth, would that increase RWP?
Can the NB Speed exceed the HT Link Speed?
What is the maximum HT Link speed of a X4 9550, and will overclocking it give any RWP?
What factors in theoretical RAM speed, i.e. DDR2-800 dual channel rated for 12800 MB/s, not hitting the maximum in benchmarks? Is this the so called von Neumann bottleneck?
Generally my philosophy is before I overclock I find the bottlenecks. This is kind of hard since there is nothing to monitor Bus/RAM bandwidth. You can however monitor CPU and GPU utilization.
