    Not sure about the Ultra Performance part (is that a BIOS setting?), but the LL models usually run T(RP) and T(RCD) both at 2, where the non-LL runs one of those at 3 (sorry, I can't remember which at the moment). The difference? About 50 or so points in 3dMark 2k1se and 50-100 MB/s bandwidth in SANDRA. Otherwise, you may not notice anything in day-to-day performance. However, you **MAY** be able to OC a little higher if you're willing to drop those settings down as you OC...

    Not sure if you have signatures turned off, but the Corsair module listed in my sig is the XMS3200 C2. This is the non-LL version, and it is rated at CAS 2. All Corsair XMS modules that are PC3500 and slower are rated at CAS2. Only the XMS3700, XMS4000, and some of their Value Select modules are rated as CAS3.

    If you go here you'll se that the XMS3200LL are rated at 2-3-2 -6, where the non-ll are rated at 2-3-3 -6. That's what I was reffering to in my first post, but for the life of me I can't remember which value changes, T(RP) or T(RCD)?

    RakOon, what is the "Ultra Performance" you were reffering to?
