I have the 8KNXP, rev. 2. I do get a performance boost with this option
turned on, but it can cause errors, generally interrupt related.I cured
the errors by backing off my RAM timings (CAS from 2 to 2.5)a bit and
was still faster than I was with CAS at 2.5 & PSB Parking turned off.
Back-up and give it a whirl!

OK,I'll try that then. My latencies are 2.5-3-3-6 even though my RAM is
pretty bad (Viking DDR400 2x512).

Well, I turned on the option and though it gives me just a marginal
upgrade it's better than nothingn .My timings didn't seem to affect it
(2.5-3-3-6).
Bye!
