I'm in the same boat Cecil. I did manage to clock my 1600 ram up to 1884 with relaxed timings, but it didn't translate into better times.

Sorry for any disrespect.

what are the magic settings than karma? Ive dont max mem tweaking large system cache copy wazza etc and I have like 10 process on a windows install that is about 3oombs. what are you going to do different?

LOL im just supposed to spill the beans huh? Ive combed more forums in more languages than I care to count to assemble my pi tweaks. You mention 3 things. Im not gonna give away the cake but if you want to try to find some useful things...

Look in the registry (I use over 25 reg tweaks), look in device manager, my pi install is 6 services and 7 processes and 92mb, certain ram subtimings have a big impact, OS appearance, priority&affinity, pagefile, copywaza file size, among many more that I dont give out in public forums anyways.

For socket 775 a good one to try is Pmem to change MCH strap offset registers (can shave seconds off a run).

Pi tweaking is about taking your time and really experimenting. Superpi is a very sensitive program that responds to very slight changes in your OS and BIOS settings. In total I probably use 50 or more tweaks for a proper run. Takes some time to get it all done, but I use images and a IDE/SATA hdd dock to keep times <5mins for a OS reimage.

I will release my tweaks after the competition. Pretty much I am only doing 5 tweaks. Only one of them is a registry tweak.

Gents, lets keep it clean and to the facts. If you have proof for the pudding then post it up. No need to start getting personal. Consider this a warning for no further attacks.

Karmakazi, we are all about sharing information around here. If you got something you want to share, then share away :)

Maybe we need to start a thread to do some real performance evaluation between the two OS's? Of course you have to compare with proper tweaks applied; not fresh full install to fresh full install.

Did putting the word pro is italics somehow make that a reference too you karma?

Before telling people to shove attitudes up their arses, check yours. :thumbdown:

Great idea Chuch!

Wasnt being arrogant just want to learn. Imo secret tweaks :thumbdown:

OK so because I did the leg work (at least 300+ hours reading crappy google translations, and another 100+ hours testing) I should just give it to you ? NONE of my tweaks are "secrets" they can ALL be found PUBLICALLY on the internet. I wasnt refering to you being arrogant, your a cool person from what Ive seen you post here and @ XS, I was referring to reverend. Maybe I will give some out AFTER the 32M comp publically. Otherwise you can speak to me on MSN if you want to know something more.

Im a levelheaded and nice person, totally willing to help people. But I will stand up for what I know to be right also.
