I jus got an 8 meg 60ns simm modual for my M1230XA. When I tryed to configure it using SetXA program it showed minimum access cycles for the RAM of 3. I used that that but after checking my performance using AIBB6.5 it turned out to be no different from the 4 meg 70ns modual I had befor. I changed the # of cycles to 2 instead of 3 and noticed a huge difference (I was 3.5 times faster than A4000 040 in MemTest.) I checked my memory continuously with diffe rent mem tester programs and it showed no errors. Should I stay with 2 cycles or go back to 3 (like it was calculated by SetXA)? Am I overriding my memory? What are the conseuen ces? Or is it that SetXA is not calculating correct # of cycles
