Anyone noticed any dips in scores with your NFII board? During some recent testing, I came across a weird oddity. It sort of reminds me of how some boards will increase the PCI bus speed as you increase the FSB to a certain point, then it would default to the original speed and start the cycle again. That's what it seems like, tho I've tested the PCI frequency and the lock works fine. Anyway, here is what I'm talking about. I've only tested it with the memStat program as I was trying to beat a certain Administrator's score...:p Notice that it doesn't matter what multiplier I'm using:
Multiplier - FSB - DDR - CPU - Score
8 - 200 - 400 - 1600 - 2876
8 - 210 - 420 - 1682 - 3029
8 - 220 - 440 - 1762 - 3132
8 - 230 - 460 - 1840 - 3274
8 - 235 - 470 - 1884 - 3178
8 - 240 - 480 - 1924 - 3268
9 - 200 - 400 - 1800 - 2928
9 - 210 - 420 - 1894 - 3083
9 - 220 - 440 - 1984 - 3278
9 - 230 - 460 - 2074 - 3419
9 - 235 - 470 - 2120 - 3286
9 - 240 - 480 - 2165 - 3352
9.5 - 200 - 400 - 1900 - 3007
9.5 - 210 - 420 - 2000 - 3175
9.5 - 220 - 440 - 2094 - 3188
9.5 - 230 - 460 - 2190 - 3466
9.5 - 235 - 470 - 2238 - 3317
ETC.
I get the drop at 235fsb every time....anyone else? :)
