Does CPU-Z have this right?

[bupkus]

It says on the "memory" tab under "timings" the following:

Frequency = 200.5 MHz
FSB: DRAM = CPU/11
CAS# Latency = 2.5 clocks
the rest in order = 3,3,7,10,16

CPU-Z Version 1.30

I know my cpu is set at 245 x 9 = 2,205
and I know this cheapo PNY memory is PC2700 although the SPD reports as follows:
SLOT #1 - 133, 2.0, 3, 3, 6 AND 166, 2.5, 3, 3, 7
SLOT #2 - 133 same as above; 166 same as above; 200, 3.0, 4, 4, 8

So, what is my memory actually running at? I'm gonna reboot now and read of the bios and report it back here.

 

[Shimmishim]

it should be running 2.5-3-3-7

those slot timings are SPD timings or AUTO timings if you set it to auto or spd in the bios.

are you running a 166 divider?

 

[bupkus]

are you running a 166 divider?

How can I tell?

My BIOS reports (in this order, not what makes sense)
2T
Tcl = 2.5
Trcd = 3
Tras = 7
Trp = 3
blah, blah, blah

Oh, and HT frequency is set to Auto as are all the above memory times.

You are running your DRAM on auto, which lets the bios choose the divider that lets it stay the closest to 200MHz. You can tell because your memory divider is 11 while your cpu multiplier is 9. Your current clock is 2200MHz (945x9) but if you divide this by 11 your memory clock is 200MHz.

Duhhhhh... how'd you know dat? Oh, cool. So, you don't set the memory divider manually?

EDIT: So, does that mean my memory is ok and not kaka?
