i7 965 CPU
Asus p6T WS Pro Motherboard
Corsair Dominator TR3X6G1600C8D Ram (8-8-8-24)
Basic Bios settings, no overclock.
Memtest 86+ gave 17431 MB/s, great !
Read a recent article here on Toms Hardware where they tested PC3-16000 (2GHz) modules. Noted that the results for most at 1.6GHz were an even more impressive 27240 MB/s....so baught the 2GHz OCZ blade set to get the most from 1.6GHz without overclocking.
Memtest 86+ AGAIN gave 17431 MB/s, what !
Timings had been manually set at 6-6-7-16 as in the article & CPUz confirmed this plus the correct DRAM frequency of around 800MHz (1600).
Any clues ?. I must be missing something stupid here as the timings alone are much better (e.g. CAS 8 down to 6).
