Anandtech takes it to 534 in the benchmark at 1:1.
I don't really understand this though. When they take it against other memories for top cpu/mem speed, they're still at 1:1 2-2-2 w/ CPU at 2.67 GHz. Why is this? Seeing the memory matrix here, obviously CPU speed is more important.
Lookie here: http://www.anandtech.com/memory/showdoc.aspx?i=2386&p=7
Here's the Rev 2 running at DDR 636, but with relaxed timings. Plus, the CPU speed was increased.
So did they try increasing VX to higher speeds with relaxed timings? Or did they just keep 2-2-2 as a must? I don't know. Or is t his saying if VX were to have relaxed timings, the higher bandwidth still wouldn't compensate.
From the benchmarks, this seems like while VX has great potential to maintain 2-2-2, its not the best combo for max speed?
