Memory is running on 800 MHz 5-5-5-18 right now. Seems to be very little settings available for change in my BIOS (none). Got a 6400-666 memory as a replacement from computer manufacturer and this dropped the speed to 667 5-5-5-15. Complained and got two CL5 and two CL6. Put in the two CL5 as a pair and kept two of my old. As I am planning to OC in future, I am trying to learn what parameters matters and what does not. What is motherboard dependent and what is not. Computer handbook only reveal I should use 667 or 800 MHz DDR2 unbuffered SDRAM SLI at 512 MB, 1 GB or 2GB. Not that I am planning to overclock memories, but perhaps get some better.
