Hi,
I just got a set of 2 x 256 PC3200 BH-5 dual channel memory sticks. On my
NF7 rev. 2, they run perfect at 200 FSB with 2-2-2-5. However, I thought I
had read somewhere that NForce chipsets actually perform better with these
timings: 2-2-2-11.
1. Is this true?
2. If it is true, why?
Also, if I decide to add more memory, would I get better performance, dual
channel-wise with getting 2 x 512 MB sticks? Or can I add one 512MB stick
in DIMM3 and put the the two 256MB modules in DIMM1 and DIMM2? Thanks.
