AMD A64 S754 Memory timings explored on nForce3 150

Memory by piotke @ 2004-04-15

On an nForce2 based platform it was proven that that CL2 2-2-5 was not the fastest setting for your ram, in fact CL2 2-2-11 was! But what about the new A64 S754 , does it show the same anomality when combined with the nForce3 150? Is the famous CL2 2-2-5 back? Does Cas Latency influence performance a lot? Let?s find out

You can't make any decision, based on this test... The difference between the two edge values isn't even 100 Mb/sec.
But, CAS 2 seems to be always faster then CAS 2.5 and 2-2-2-11 isn't the fasted here. But the differences are too small to name a clear winner.

It's very simple. CAS 2 is always the fasted. And so is 2-2-2-5.
