Overclocked memory

Hi all,

I've been having difficulty getting an accurate reading of my memory frequency.
Setup:
Abit BG7
P4 1.6A@2.3(146 MHz bus)
512 MB Corsair VS PC2700

I have the CPU😀RAM set to 4:5 which should take me to a DDR 365 frequency

Sissoft sandra won't report the frequency, but my bandwidth numbers are well over SIS and VIA PC2700 numbers (>2500).
WCPUID reports a frequency of 109.87(*2) (which turns out to be a CPU😀RAM ratio of 4:3)
at 4:3 (219 MHz), I get bandwidth numbers ~2100
at 1:1(292 MHz), I get ~2300
at 4:5(365 MHz), I get ~ 2500
(this is all with integrated video on, which I know eats some bandwidth up)

Is WCPUID wrong, and if so, any suggestions for a better frequency monitor?

thanks in advance!

all of those monitor programs have trouble reading the mem gens - its hit or miss.

CPU-z might work.

but showing the right speeds and working are two diffent things - if you know what i mean.
even a broken clock is right twice a day 😉
