Few questions on cores + ram.

[daninfamous]

I just finished building my new rig

q6600 g0 @ 2.4 (9x266)
ga DS3L
2gb g.skill pc 6400

in cpuid

400mhz
it says ram divider is 2:3

5 5 5 15 2T

when i goto the

SPD tab it each stick has 2 columns.

one column says

freq 266
4
4
4
10

the other column says
freq 400
5
5
5
15


each stick says the same thing

is this normal?

Also im folding at home, intrested in it, and just letting it stress my cpu 24/7 to watch temps.

temps are good, but it is only using 2 cores at about 50% each core. i set the settings to use max cpu power...

Yes, that's completely normal, for your RAM. All PC6400 DDR2 has at least two different SPD speeds/timings, and some have more. As far as Folding, I think you just have to run two instances of it. Try PMing Markfw900. He'll definitely know.
