@Doffo:

It is strange. With 167MHz FSB your system memory speed is a way low... (Mine is too fast, or it is 200MHz in real :) )
As i see you have 1,25GB ram, maybe you can try another test with only 1GB or the 256MB stick.

@Mark - interesting results from the 'extensive' test.

@Derringer

Your memory speeds seem to be approximately 4/3 of the other Mac-minis.
Incidentally, the 'number of ticks' on your cpu output is 3, whereas others are 4.

Does this figure relate to the ratio of memory bus/cpu frequency?
If so, it seems your memory is handling the overclocking very well!

On my PB the ticks is 20...

Anyway my mini with 1.58 GHz play the same 720p movie smoother and less cpu power (5-10%) than the faster (1,67GHz clocked) PB. Maybe it is because the current ATI drivers slower on PB than on Mini not the overall Memory speed gain.

Anyway i have a feeling that either ram latency is different because the overclock, and the ram stick can handle it, or the FSB is not 167MHz. For example 200MHz.

One more data: Under uae, with exatly the same config/system My PB is scored in sysinfo about 0.68% of an Amiga 4000@25MHz, while my mini is 0.98% of an Amiga 4000@25Mhz

Quote:

PB 5,8 (DDR2 version)?
My PB 5,6 (DDR) shows ticks = 9, so that would (almost) correlate.

Yes my PB is the DDR2 version. Absolutelly silly (marketing) design.

Anyway what is exatly this tikcs number means?
