    Posted: 14 Jan 2009 at 7:18am
I have an older DS System which, with some minor modifications in the cooling system, runs stable and fairly cool (Prime95, Orthos, Memtest etc). Would there be any benefits and tightening up my memory settings, and if so I would appreciate any suggestions on timings. I have played with lower multiples and higher FSB's but have achieved maximum stability using the settings below. Any suggestions would also be appreciated regarding the CPU settings.I have some headroom in both CPU core and DIMM voltages.

Thanks.

If your system is stable then stick with what you got, you won't notice the difference in ram timings

the best timmings I've been able to reach with that ram is 5,4,4,15
the highest stable oc I can reach is only 1100  Both of these make little to no difference so I would just leave your settings alone

Appreciate the feedback guys.I will leave my timings as is and I am tempted by the E8600 and its headroom.
Thanks
