PascalW Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 (edited) How the hell can you get 117 points in xbench? I have some about the same setup, same proc (only not overclocked) same graphics card, 2GB memory and I get only 88 points What score do you have in geekbench btw?

Hm your memory and disks perform way better. I have 2GB memory now but it has slow down to 333mhz instead of 400mhz which it should be, still have to find out how that comes. And I'm running on an quite old IDE disk because my sata disk isn't supported.

pcampisi14 Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 My hard drive that holds the boot volume OS X is a SATA drive, with a 16mb cache...It provides a lot better performance then when I used a ata drive...

Yea the speed of your DDR makes a huge diff, get into your bios and change your command rate on your ram to t1 if you cant clock up to 400mhz..

Yeah it sucks that I can't use my sata disk because I have a non support ati sata controller. But I'm going to figure out why my memory runs at only 333mhz while it should be 400mhz. Cause that's slowing things down I guess. In my bios I can only change it to even more slower speeds with max 200mhz :S I don't get it. I guess it has something to do with how I've seperated the memory. I have 256-256-512-1GB. Maybe I have to change the order in which they are installed or something. Or it just can't provide 400mhz to 4 slots.

pcampisi14 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 Well when I work on older pentium 3-4 model IMB's at school the school tech tells me to install ram dimms by having the largest one in the closest socket to the CPU... I don't no why, I don't have many issues other wise. I supose your cpu would address the larger ram dimm first.

PascalW Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Hm changed the order in which they are placed but doesn't help. Even took some dimms out of it, but it keeps at 333mhz while it should be 400 Anyone know how to fix it?
