Max Bclk with tight 7-7-7-17 timings
Time to test for max Bclk with tight 7-7-7-17 timings. These aren't fully stable just testing for Super Pi 32M and 3dmark06 stability first. Don't mind the
vcore, I didn't fine tune the settings just set it to whatever booted into windows
I ended up with max 220Bclk bootable into windows. The clock generator under reports Bclk a tad so ended up with 219.6Bclk. For memory clock used DRAM Frequency 1067Mhz (1067/133 = 8x mem multiplier), so resulted in 219.6 x 8 = DDR3-1756Mhz or 878Mhz 7-7-7-17 at 1.875v with CPU VTT at 1.48v.
I tested same settings with 18x and 19x cpu multiplier.
18x219.6Bclk
19x219.6Bclk
