Off Topic: Hardware Question

I have a TX chipset and 64mb of 10ns 100mhz SDRAM. Should I reduce the DRAM timing setting in my chipset features setup to a lower value? Currently its set to 70ns which I assume is acceptable for EDO ram.

Also, should SDRAM speculative read be enabled or disabled? What sould my DRAM refresh rate be set to?

Thanks.

Kevin, Jim: I'm with Stockman on this one...Jerry is the problem. If you look at the big picture, the problem is not yields, but basic business strategy. By taking on Intel on price/volume and you don't have the capabilities to compete, it doesn't take a genius to figure out what's going to happen...AMD/K6 was doomed from the beginning, regardless if yields were better than today.
