Returned a set of these and want to make sure this time I have everything setup for a stable, fully within spec system. I'd like to know what settings to use to acheive this. Looking for info like this:

CPU Clock Ratio - Auto
CPU Host Frequency (Mhz) - 266 (for 1066FSB CPU) 333 for (1333FSB CPU)
System Memory Multiplier - 3.0 for a 266(1066FSB cpu) 2.4 for 333(1333FSB cpu)
Memory Frequency(Mhz) - 800Mhz
High Speed DRAM DLL Settings - Option 2
Performance Enhance - Standard (Changing this option can greatly increase performance, testing will be needed to find best mix of stability and speed)
DRAM Timing Selectable (SPD) - Manual
CAS Latency TIme - 4
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay - 4
DRAM RAS# Precharge - 4
Precharge delay (tRAS) - 12
ACT to ACT Delay (tRRD) - 4 (3 often works too)
Rank Write to READ Delay - 11 (9 to 10 can also work, but test after changing)
Write To Precharge Delay - 14 (10 to 11 can also work, test after changing)
Refresh to ACT Delay - 42 (25 to 35 can also work, test after changing)
Read to Precharge Delay - 6 (3 to 5 can also work " " ")
tRD - 8 to 8 to 10 (Sometimes even lower is possible, will help with performanace)
tRD Phase Adjustment - Auto


The above is for another brand of ram. Again, I'm looking for info beyond the 4-4-4-12 settings but everything else below. Thanks.

Not sure why I bother asking questions in Anandtech anymore? Used to be the best place to get something answered, now, never.

I no longer mess around with those sub-parameters. Too little gain for the amount of time wasted. The sweet spot for most P35 boards is 450 to 480MHz with 4-4-4-12-2T or lower. CPU core speed is KING.
