Ok will update each time i get a HUH???
firstly what does it mean when people write ....
"Oh man i was trying to make my ram 2-2-2-3 from 4-3-2-5"
That may not be right, but you understand what i am getting at, and also when you explain what it is can you explain hoe to do it.
Cheers Many thanks

What motherboard are you using so we can tell you where exactly to go in the BIOS ?
At the moment its a DFI Lanparty NFII B .... i think, cant remeber off top of my head.
But i have recently bought an Abit AN8 nForce4, Skt 939, for my new processor.
So if you could explain what it means and how to do it i would be Very grateful.
What people mean by phrases like that are they want to adjust the timings at which the memory runs at.
Basically theres a wide range of memory out there and they all have different operating speeds. For example - some generic memory would probably run with speeds akin to 3-3-3-6 or higher, but good quality memory with lower timings would run at say 2-2-2-5.
What this means can be easily shown on the following PDF file ;

If you check the following link the first image shows where in the BIOS to change the settings to get better speeds and lower latencies on the DFI motherboard ;

The image shows 11 as the T(RAS) setting as many people have seen that 11-2-2-2 as opposed to 5-2-2-2 gives better results in benchmarks etc.
Hope this helps :)
Graphics cards....
What do you mean by Pipe lines ?????
I read it all the time but how do you make a "NEW" pipe line
Pipelines are the data pipes that the graphical data flows down. The more pipes, the more data can be processed basically :)Quote:
