    hi guys,
    Does anyone no about performance benefits when forcing RAM to run at 1T rather than 2T?

    POSTing was the first step(i am running at 800mhz so it is fine)
    but for some reason i am getting really random application errors in windows

    my system is,
    E6750 core2duo
    Albatron NF680i SLI
    2x1gig Geil-Ultra-DDR2 800mhz
    XFX 6800gt

    thanks,

    Your system's unstable then. generally with core 2 duos it's better to keep your RAM at 2T I think. 1T benefited the old Athlons far more.

    i thought that might be the case, so theres no performance benefits?
    if i was able to make it stable?

    IIRC it's actually disrecommended to use 1T with core 2 duos...
