Why would I have low memory performance?

[snidy]

I'm not sure how reliable it is, but PC pit stop pc test shows this:
Memory performance of this system, 2175 megabytes per second, is significantly lower than average. Systems with the same processor and amount of memory typically perform at a level of 3377.84 MB/s.

I tried all of there tips, but nothing worked, any sugestions?

Do you have your memory settings tweaked in the bios? If that is fairly new crucial, you could probably run it at the fastest timings.

I do not know how much you know about memory, but Cas2 is better than Cas3.

Also, maybe the benchmark factors in DDR ram instead of SDR Ram?

What the hell...considering PC133 can only provide 1GB of bandwidth...

What a POS program if it's giving you that info.

PC2100 is some fast DDR- the 2100 stands for 2100MB/s, and you only have PC133.

PC800 (RDRAM) has a lot of bandwidth (which is not exactly used so well) and has a 3.2GB/s bandwidth.

Seriously dude...there's something very wrong with those benchies.

Make sure you are running at cas 2-2-2 in bios. I have a7v(not kt133a) with duron.

I just ran pc-pitstop and here is my result for memory: 1708 mbps. It says that is %108 compared to similar systems. That is with a7v, duron 700, 192mb micron at 133mhz cas 2-2-2.
