Help me find new RED Crucial Ballistix Tracers 2x2gig ddr2 REDS

I understand, unfourntantly my RAM has not been OCing as nicely as I thought they would, but that might be my MB as much as I hate to say it.

yeah,,,, read the review in the first post. the 2x2gig's clock about the same as the 2x1gigs do.
 
Sapphire needs to start making their "Pure" motherboard series again with white PCB. Then they need to dabble in Pure 3870s and Pure DDR2 :D

Definitely the most unique motherboard I have ever seen.

Wow the White Board and RED slots look very appealing. Me likes.

i like the color... but not that AMD chip socket...yuck!

Yeah, something about having 4x1GB reduces OCing capabilities. Thats would deff be another plus to get the Red Versions.

So has anyone found out were we can purchase these yet?

But that would be removed with a good 3ed party cooler anyways.


The back has ATi in big red letters to I believe.

no... i've got all 4 gig's to 1260mhz in my maximus.

i'll be getting 4x2gig sticks now. i dont need them to OC too far though. the q6700 is easy to please...memory wise.
 
I wish they kept going with that color scheme, or at least a white PCB. Only company I've seen do it. Sadly, they stopped with skt939. Now they're black with rainbow slots :shadedshu

And yes, it does have a huge red ATi logo on the back.

Curse you!! jk, It must be my board than... It won't boot with anything higher than like 1020. Can't wait for at least a bios update. What were your volts for that speed, you remember?
 
QUESTION.... WHY THE HELL>....... everytime i start a thread it grows WAY faster then most other threads?

i mean, come on.... 10 pages for a giveaway that lasted a week? my for sale thread is like 12 pages going on 13 now. my machine thread is like 8 pages.

i must have interesting threads i guess.

thanks guys for "being so interested" LOL!

like 2.24v. maximus is a WIZARD with overclocking man. i cant tell you how good this board is.
 
I thought I read somewhere that these didn't have Microns in them anymore, am I wrong?

they have micron D9H??'s they are just a more dense version of the d9gmh's.

i havent got my reds yet... e8500 is NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!!! i think it's a mythical CPU. it's not real.

LOL! i need 2 packs of REDS!
 
I want them now fits! Why have you not gotten any yet? I am very dissapointed in you. Come on I should have gotten them already :roll:

lol crucial is just the division of micron that sells that ram
however micron also sells their ICs to other companies, I HIGHLY doubt they'd purchase ICs from another IC manufacturer...

bought a e3110 while I was waiting, supposed to match a E8500s binning.

Right, but now all the Ballistix are manufactured not using Microns. They use double-sided chips now.

EDIT: Well, they are probably Microns, but not as good as the D9GMH...but probably less sensitive to voltage.

they are still great OCers
 
I still take my AxeRAM :p
 
the red tracers ARE confirmed micron D9 chips. they are just a different density then the 1gig sticks.

i talked to crucial this morning. they said we can get a 10% discount if we can order 20 sets or more. im in for 2 sets and i think you guys need about 4-6 more. so thats 8 sets.

i can get them as soon as i get the money.
 
what exactly is a "set" how many are in a set?

each kit is a set of 2 2gig sticks. each set/kit will cost around $150 each.

1 2x2gig kit = 4gig's = $150

2 2x2gig kits = 8gig's = $300
