that was because i had just gotten my prescott and was testing the waters.
i find that my memory on 2.8v seems to max out at or near 230mhz with any timings. higher voltages don't seem to help much.
so i am using 240fsb with 5:4 right now for a 192mhz memory 2-2-2-6
this gives me better performance than 230 1:1 in most every case.
here are some pi benchmarks i've run:
2973 212 170 5:4 1.42v
1m 46s
2m 1:45s
3110 222 177 5:4 1.42v
1m 43s
2m 1:39s
3220 230 184 5:4 1.42v
1m 42s
2m 1:36s
3307 236 189 5:4 1.52v
1m 40s
2m 1:33s
3366 240 192 5:4 1.52v
1m 40s
2m 1:32s
3435 245 196 5:4 1.52v
1m 39s
2m 1:30s
3223 230 230 1:1 1.52v
1m 41s
2m 1:34s
the gaming benchmarks might show slightly different results, but i am confident in the fact that 5:4 wins almost everytime for me when I am able to get atleast 5mhz more out of the fsb.
