nForce 2 Ultra 400

[11427]

Ok, so exactly what is this going to do for me?
I had an A7N8X Deluxe rev 1.04 it was ok, but about 40% of the time it would fail memory test when booting up. Ran a bunch of tests on the ram (used memtest 86) on three machines and took it to a local shop to have them run some tests, always checked out fine except on my rev 1.04 board. Took it back today and they replaced it with a rev 2.0, no more "system failed memory test" nice!
Now I'm curious,.... what exactly is different from the nForce2 chipset and the nForce2 SSP (Ultra 400) chipset, other than the official support of 400 fsb?

Thanks,
Mark

It is a new revision (c1) of the nforce2 chipset in which they made some improvements that allowed them to officially validate it for 200/400mhz ddr FSB operation rather than just the 400mhz memory operation that the original revision of the chipset was validated for. Also as i understand it there were some other optimizations made that reduced the chipsets power consumption as well.

So its pretty much the same thing but with some minor improvements?
