Post on DFI-street related to 1/2 multipliers and RAM settings
I found this while I was researching how to get my RAM to do 1T stable past ~230HTT. The third through sixth posts were the most help. This is of course assuming you have tried the more common solutions already, such as determining if it's an SATA issue or not.
As it turns out, some of the settings I had left as Auto really turned out to hold me back. Note that these settings are on the DFI Lanparty NF3 UT and may be named differently or not available on other motherboards.
The settings that seemed to help me the most, other than the standard latencies (which are 2.5-3-3-10), were the Row Cycle Time and Row Refresh Cycle Time. I set those to 15 and 17 respectively, as the guide suggested, and voila, the RAM is rock stable at 240HTT and 1T command rate.
I'll probably bring those two settings down a bit this weekend when I have some time to test them out. I'll be sure to report the results.
