wierd computer!

i can run my proc at 2.63ghz no probs now i thoughts id try 10x263 as it yields higher bendwidth, now i run super pi and its gives me 39-40 seconds with my mem timings at 2.5-3-3-6 now if i run it at 239x11 it is still stable but super pi is now at 33-34 seconds and mem timings are at 2-3-3-6 WTF is up with that.

i always thought more bandwidth is better and yes teh same system processes are running in abck round each time

any explanations? i woudl not of thought a case of .5 woudl of made that bigger differnce to time

when i upped my venice to 2.8 from 2.6 at stock volts super pi took about 49 seconds... however when i upped the volts to 1.45v it flew...

try increasing the voltage to you ram if you can as it may help... also is your memory stable at those timings and speeds??

memtest86 error free??

nope thats exactly what i meant

i went from 2.6 ghz at stock

to 2.8 ghz at stock and my super pi was super slow... until i upped the voltage to 1.45v
