Ramashiva,

Yes you can use memory interleaving etc even if you Bios does not have a setting. I've done this and gained around 20% with the system being noticably faster.

Take a look at :

WPCREDIT and WPCRSET are not very intuitive but with care you can set any features that the chipset supports. Overall I can get up to 40% improvement in memory benchmarks but end up with instability. It takes many weeks to test each option with a solid overnight stability test for each one.

As you sound like a "compulsive tweaker" (as I am) these tools will keep you happy for many months !

It is also a good Idea to donwload the chipset specs from VIA as then you have full details of all parameters you can use.

Good Luck
