Hello guys. Just moved from AMD x2 3800+ to Intel dual core e2160 on a p35-ds3r. I have 2 questions:
1- Memory command rate is set at 2t from what the latest cpu-z shows. I can't find any options in the bios to set it to 1t, even when I hit ctrl-f1 to show the hidden settings in the bios. Can memory be run at 1t with a dual core cpu ? I have 2x1gb ddr2 800 Patriot Extreme performance 4-4-4-12.
2- My storage hdd, a seagate 500gb 7200.10, is shown in intel matrix storage utility as sata1. My system hdd, a raid0 array of 2x80gb seagate 7200.9, is shown as sata2 on the same controller.
I've sorted out the hdd problem. There was a tiny jumper that I didn't see when installing limiting the drive to sata1 mode. Took it off and now the drive operates at sata2 speed. But can anyone help me on the memory issue ?
