This is less than a 0.6% increase in speed. 3DMark06 score was 5 higher, that's right 5 (9373 to 9378), with the faster ram timings. My memory requires a increase in voltage to be stable at the faster timings. 1.8v @ 5-5-5-18 ... 1.9v @5-5-5-15. The memory is rated for 2.2v @ 4-4-4-12.
To me it makes no sense at all to increase the memory voltage and lower the timings and or increase the speed for at most a 1-2% increase in CPU speed. Which would then equate to a less than 1% increase in FPS.
Am I seeing this right or should I be getting more improvement out of my memory speeds and timings?
Also, I get a 3dmark06 score of 9373 with the above setup. Is this about right?
