Tighten ur timing and u can score better. My black pearl last time boost from 3.2Ghz > 4Ghz super PI 1MB is 33sec @ 2.5-3-3-8.

@Jcsy

As mentioned in few post back, CL2.5 / 3 dont have must diff, in reality u wont feel the different. But in benchmark u will see the different. Especially in PI score bench. CL 2 is rare to have unless u gotten BH-5 on hand.

Otherwise, TCCD,TCCC will give u 2.5 the tightest u can go. Bear in mind, BH-5 need atleast 2.9v for booting up if u set the CL to 2. AFAIK P4 mobo maximum vdimm is is 2.9v, u need DDR booster in the case to have more then 2.9v vidimm.

@NtahX
U can set the timing at bios my fren. Are u using value ram? If then mostly the CL is either 2.5/3.

Haaha... Pity that northwood cannot push too far the most 3.6-3.8ghz until dare to push vcore.

@Jcsy

Usually if having 2 different timing on the same setup, the bios will automatically follow the lowest one. So like ur case, ur system is probably running on CL3 instead of CL2.5.

@NtahX
Haha.. Northwood having advantage on low temp, but they cant push too far.

@Jcsy

Haha.. I thought u know that? Anyways, just restart ur system and did some changes on the bios will do.

@bai1101

Confirm ram? Or the ram dimm on mobo has problem? Hahah... Wad a pity if it is the ram problem.

@ray
Yea. That is reason why northy cant be push too far. But anyways, i like the advantage it has. Low temp.

Anyways, this thread is turning to real P4 technical talk thread. Nice.

Ram should be running on life time warranty right? Just need to RMA it. But takes sometime thou.. Haha!

P/s: Tested RA3 on my rigs. Flawless.. But just the game is too comical.. Totally different with RA and RA2 in my opinion. The game play it still the same, but just the graphic is different.

@Jcsy

Haha! Im running on 3GB as well now.. Miss the CL2 time. DDR2 the tightest can do is CL4 and is required atleast 2.2v to run at that speed, where default vdimm for DDR2 is 18v.

Anyways, 3GB for XP is like over kill.

Haha.. Whats wrong wit the topic dlwl? Dont know whats going on? Now the time to learn. Ram timing makes diff in benchies.. So i wanna squeeze few more pts on ur benchies, u gotta play around with it.

P/s: Argh... Never play COD series before. FPS game?

Lol.. That what this thread should talk about actually. Hahah.. 6600GT the minimum for that game? Should be alright for P4 to handle the game thou.

Ah.. I had smell someone migrate to vista already..

Off topic spotted.

Please go to go game section for RA3 dicussion. Jk jk!! I yet start any of the mission yet. Just install and barely play around.

@astria
My current rigs only score max 5 point for Vista. The processor and ram score the lowest mark.

@ravewar

Get it FOC @ Mininova.

@edministrator

U willing to spent ur 1xx just for few piece of DVD which is uneatable?

@ray
Yea. The game play is quite nice lo.. Fast fast upgrade ur GC!

@dlwl

Haha.. It only took me to wait 1 day to finish DL everything. So its worth to wait. With the RM10, can fill 4.65little of petrol..

@dlwl

Yea. My 1 day is 24hrs based. It took me 13hrs if im not mistaken. DL speed is around 100kb/s to 220kb/s depend on the seeder and leecher ratio. I could finish up a 700mb file in 1hr time provided the source is good.

@bai1101

Need to edit host files? I just block the RA3 control center with firewall and don't let it to hook to internet will do already. Haha!

LOL! Turning into RA3 discussion now. Shhhss.. Keep low profile about how to grab the FREE version. Later mod spotted it and we all kena warning.

Hm.. SM3 is needed eh! I can max up all the details but have to lower down the reso with my current card.

Haha.. In low reso it still doing well. But once come to high reso, it cant stand also.

@Ray
Haha... I got pain on ass on 1024*768 @ ultra high. The graphic get sluggish even just scroll around on the map. Gotta set to high/medium for better gameplay.
