Where's my bandwith?

[MikeyLikesItSI]

P4 630 3.0 @ 4.050 memory at 1:1 270fsb, 2.5-3-3-7, sandra bandwith: 5567....

What is that about? shouldn't this be up in the mid 6's?

i get 7100 with 245 2.5-3-3-7 1t. so yes that sounds low to me. im amd though.

 

[MikeyLikesItSI]

yeah, a decent amd would blow my rig out of the water in mem bandwith, but i mean this is almost embarrising.

EDIT: I get 6900 pcmark mem scores

EDIT 2: At bios defaults, it only gets 3800

Dual channel enabled? Any other benchmarks seem low?

 

[flapperhead]

yeah thats low. it should be in the six's

EDIT 2: At bios defaults, it only gets 3800

And at 270 fsb, one stick (single channel) it get 3300

yeah the AMD systems will kill a P4 on memory bandwidth. especially with the dual-channel of nforce 4, but that's still really low.

 

[Know Nuttin]

are you sure you're not running a memory divider?

at 255, i get about 6100mb/sec or so.

gee thanks guys, these high scores aren't making me feel much better LOL

seriously though, dual channel enabled, no dividers, PAT enabled, 2.5-3-3-7... i don't get it
