220 MHz
FSB
Simple configuration,
all we did was pump up the FSB to 220 MHz and left the voltages at default. The
latency was balanced to a CL3-2-2-8 timing and that will make this ram fast
at this data rate.

Here we
can see that the Intel P4 processor is already running at 3.74GHz which
means a 340 MHz increase and that the Mushkin memory has no draw back at these
clock speeds. In fact the ram is still running at a very tight timing of CL
3-2-2-8!

240 MHz
FSB
In order to break up
into the 4 GHz area we had to loosen the timings to CL4-4-4-12 and was able to
still run fine with stock voltages. Even at this timing the ram is super
fast.

 Well since we increased the bus speed by 20 MHz to 240 MHz, our
Intel P4 is now running 4.08GHz, yelp’s indeed, we passed the 4 GHz barrier.
And again the Mushkin memory has no issues what-so-ever.
