Thanks. Yeah on DDR. Thanks. As to OCing this one i quickly found that while the cpu can be easily OC'ed from 34 to 44(bios error with x48), the heat generated with Prime95 is easily 100C+ (coretemp1.0rc6) and not conducive to much of a lifetime. The CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 is close to a...

I think the difference is in the clocking - 9 at 1600 would be 4.5 at 800. So, yes, the memory is being clocked at 1600 but only accessed every 9,9,9,9,24 or so. So yes, marketing ploy back in 2007 - runs no better than a fast 800 clocked at 4 or 5. But "showing 800 and clocking of 9,etc"...

so the bios which says it's running it at 1600 (x16) is provericating?

So if I understand correctly you're saying it is being accessed at 800, but transferring as if operating at 1600?

hwinfo64 v4.36-2150 been using hwinfo for quite a bit, many different versions, and always noticed the memory speed shows 1/2 of what I would expect for my 1600 ballistix: Memory Speed: 800.0 MHz (PC3-12800) Module...
