Splig I am dying to play with AMD myself. IIRC, you want atleast 2x mem on the NB. So for 1600mhz mem you want 3200mhz NB if you can pull it off. Shouldn't be a problem with ln2 Try and work her up to 4ghz NB and you'll be in the 10's

According to AMD its three times actual memory speed. so 1600 RAM = 800 *3 =2400cpuNB

Nothing wrong with going 3200 though.

Gotcha. The way I had read it in discussions between Massman, MrIcee, chew*, and Bingo (asus bios guy), they were going off effective speeds and saying triple was best. Of course AMD NB just aren't that strong so they try and settle for next best; 2x or more effective memory speed. IIRC, this was when Thuban just came out and showed its IMC strength. Are they mistaken? You are the resident AMD guru
