What is the reason for this? Bankgroupswap for me reduces my latency in aida by a decent amount.
Yes i also had to set TRC to 60 as well. Got TRFC at 280 and appears stable, gave a nice bump to my read speeds in aida, for what that is worth.
I found BGS Alt lowered my L3 cache speeds in Aida too, so i keep that disabled.
DDR4 had Banks Groups introduced in it,
link. I would hazard a guess that it disables swapping between them. In
this post you can see some info from The Stilt. There is a new option in the latest C6H UEFI 1401 BankGroupSwapAlt, which I would hazard a guess at is some differing "version" of swapping data between banks? the post by
The Stilt so as not evaluated we have no infor from Asus or him on its case use, benefit, etc.
What is this bank group swap, what does it do, and should I fiddle with it?
Is it a setting that it will take an age to test if it has made things unstable?
IIRC you use 2 dimms per channel? if so you don't disable.
My findings are it will either boot or not. It wont change stability, I could be wrong of course but that what I experienced.
I don't have any issues swapping BGS on/off. BGSA yet to try.
One you have the main timings stable (e.g 14-14-14-34) what are the main things to focus on to further improve performance? Does trying to lower the 34 make much difference? The more detailed timings? I read gupstergs post on the other forum and found the settings there which I translated to my BIOS but they were not stable and no idea where to start to try and sort, so assume starting from everything at auto is best?
My RAM is 3600c17 g skill, it's at 3333 which appears to be my boot limit so just wanted to tighten as much as I can.
Still get occasional boot loops on restart or cold boot but getting there... slowly...
tRAS, tRC, tFAW, tRFC I would play with to gain stability, they also have less effect with slacking than loosening the other timings part of The Stilt's setup.

Same setup, W7 then W10C.

So AIDA64 does seem effected by OS used. The Stilt is saying it is not showing right info, not fully disclosed explanation. He does from what I'm aware feed info/work with authors of SW like HWiNFO, AIDA64, GPU-Z, so I reckon he would know the "crack".
I will test BankGroupSwapAlt [Disabled] and report back on how same profile benches in AIDA64 per OS.
