In June, I'll be taking advantage of AM2's release to put together a
939 system for fire sale prices. It looks like I'll be running an Opty
at multi 8 x 333 HTT on a ULi-powered ASrock dual eSATA mobo. Now,
about the RAM, I'm torn between two choices:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231032
DDR400 2-3-2-5 with a 3:4 divider running at DDR500 speeds? How loose
will the timings get?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231021
DDR500 3-4-3-8 with a 1:1 divider running at DDR666 speeds (is this
even possible)?
Google digs up some interesting articles about the timing/speed
tradeoffs:
