What if I had two sets of memory, and I had to choose one to use. Which is faster? The sets are
2x1GB PC2 4300 4-4-4-12 (DDR2 533)
or
2x1GB PC2 5300 5-5-5-15 (DDR2 667)
 
Run Super Pi with each set and then decide. It all depends on your rigs setup.


:toast:
 
depends whose ram it is the 667 may be able to do 800@4-4-4-12 and so could the 533
 
Well I guess I'll have to wait to find out.
When I get my AC Freezer 64 Pro, I'm going to try for 3GHz. If I do hit 3GHz stable, I will try out each setting on my memory and then decide.

This is really the same memory set we're talking about, just what settings to run it at.

Namslas I think it was took my part number and found out it's some kind of Samsung memory. Can's comaplin though, it's just "Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 533 (PC2 4200)", non-Lanfest/Ballistix/Tracer
