total newb question. when i first started playing with straps the common standard mod was to take the 1500 strap and apply it to 1625, 1750, and 2000. when you take and edit the 1625 strap, do you apply it to only 1625, to 1625, 1750, and 2000, or do you apply it to all of them, 1500, 1625, 1750, and 2000?
That should depend on what mem clock you can achieve. You basically want the tightest timings that will still work at the highest mem clock. If your mem can do 2100 and the 1500 strap will only let you get to 1900...well you might want to use the 1625 strap instead. As always trial and error and performance/stability testing will find out what works best for your hardware. Every card is different.
You only really need to apply a strap to the one frequency you will actually be using. Applying it to multiple ones will just give you some lower clocks to fall back on if a higher clock fails.so i should be applying the custom 1625 strap to the 2000 field because im shooting for above 2000 mem clock?
