virtual mem setting in Xp using NTFS..
Hi, ...Well I read about the hunger of Windows swap(page file in my case)
I experimeted in having the page file set to 384 Mb Ram on my 512Mb Ram Athlon 1009Mhz..
I'm definitely getting a 7.7% increase in output...(loading prog. into ram) accoridng to GuI 7.0..
I don't think you can really clock this chip either on a 7IEX4 mobo?
Anybody any ideas?

Interesting...but...is this a 7% speedup versus a smaller swapfile and still using the "Use more ram" option?
Also, is that Athlon a B (100Mhz FSB) or C (133Mhz FSB) ?
The mobo you mention has a variety of FSB's available between 100 and 133 but only 140 and 150 are selectable >133.
Here's a little tool that might help you:

Let me know how it goes.
Oh, another thing..close all L7 bridges on the CPU (with a pencil) and it'll default to 1.85 VCore (default is 1.75), that will give you more headroom.

You MAY be able to run the RAM at 133 Mhz, CL3....but dont hold your breath..
Oh btw, if you up your FSB..lets say to 110, then you also up the mem to either 110 or to 133+10=143!
there shouldnt be much difference between 100Mhz CL2 and 133 CL3...

As long as the obsession helps to churn out more structs/day?
Who can argue!!?
Odd thing is tho that i get 86000/day on an Athlon990 with 256 MB SDRam at 143Mhz, CL3. (110Mhz FSB)
So your score looks a little low..might be the lower clocked mem or the chipset itself...

Page file size should be twice physical memory if you have 256MB or more of RAM. It helps your 3DMArk score .
It must be true as I read it on the Internet
