How important is memory speed and access times when it comes to gaming? I've only ever been told that it makes a very small difference in terms of FPS.

Not at all, those are some outstanding numbers my friend. In the next few weeks I will get around to tuning this rig to it's maximum potential. Right now using the ASUS AI suite auto OC I am landing in the top ten on the AMD MaxxMemm list (with LN2 suicide runs removed). My current scores show that somebody with absolutely no OC skills can get great performance with an FX, and you are showing that with some proper tuning this can be pushed even further.

Kudos to you sir, that score is something to be proud of!

Here is what I am scoring with 16 GB and the auto-OC. I did tighten the memory timings a bit from what the auto-OC gave me for these results:

Thermaltake clp0554 air cooler, and temps get over 70c on anything over 4.2. Ghz or so. So I updated my bios and now my default voltage went from 1.36 to 1.4v.

Does yours have a LLC setting? If you set your board to 1.4v any v drop or does it go up under load? Also what is your NB voltage at?
I know on my ud5 with F9 bios it drops like crazy so for me to do 4ghz I need 1.425 on the vcore which it v drops to around 1.28-1.3v under load. I have no llc setting on my board.
The sabertooth I have I have it set to 1.28v for 4ghz. My llc setting for the cpu is set to Ultra. If I set anything above 1.4v on that board my temps start crawling up.

My bios has llc but on auto, it can go all the way up to extreme.

I would set it one notch from the highest and see if you can set vcore to 1.28-1.3 and see if you can get 4ghz stable.

Okay, the massive derail has been cleaned up ... hope you guys had fun rolleyes.gif

Let's please have no more extended car analogies, and NO MORE DEBATING PHII vs. Bulldozer in this thread. This is the FX OWNERS CLUB, not the Phenom vs FX Debate Society.

Next time someone posts "PHII is better!!!" (or Intel for that matter), please REPORT THE POST, and DO NOT respond to it.

Hell, even if someone comes on and ASKS 'which should I buy, PHII or FX' ... please tell them to ask in the General AMD Processor section, and report the post.

Thank you ...

Try droping your CPU-NB speed, on the FX's they start to show negitive scaling around the 2500 mark, dependent from CPU to CPU, I score negitivly for every MHZ past 2400 on the NB with this chip, most of the time it wont even boot past CPU-NB 2400 on my end.
