I'm working on a budget build consisting of:
Athlon X4 860K (stock speed)
MSI A88XM Gaming
G.Skill Sniper 2133 MHz Memory (2x8 GB)
The default timings of 10-12-12-31-43 produces a lowly 7.4 (out of 7.9) in the W.E.I. for the memory score.
I had a similar built some time ago with a Athlon x4 760K and 1600 MHz memory that gave the same score. I was expecting the 2133 MHz-capable controller of the 860K to produce a better score with 2133 MHz RAM. Would tightening of the timings make a difference, or do you think I'm up against the weak memory controller of the 860K.
