    I was curious why new video drivers would make a difference in speed in the tests where the video subsystem is not involved. Anyone?

    you're my hero Wesley. thanks for going through and redoing the benches with the dfi. looks like you were right about the VX being faster at the same timings and speed.. though it still doesn't make sense to me. i'll have to do a bit of research into it.

    two things i'd like to say about the review though:

    first, a recommendation for an additional test. use the memory latency benchmark in everest ( http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1... ). i have found that in my testing, the lower the latency, the better (duh) but if the latency is different for each ram at the same speeds and timings, it would definitly imply that not all ram is equal at equal settings.. which is what we're seeing here.

    second: why so much voltage for ballistix at low speeds? i have two sticks of the stuff myself, and have found that it helps tremendously if the drive strength is lowered to level 1 or level 2 on my dfi lanparty nf3-ut. i know the nf4 version is different, but it's something to keep in mind with tweaking.
