zebbo waz up? welcome and thank you for providing this service to us

could you reccomend me some ram for i865/i875 to run @ high frequency while maintaining low latencies and running 1:1 (stable), my VX is bugging me.

voltage is not a problem ive got a booster.

thnx

 

[Zebbo]

Anytime

Since UTT never worked that good with Intel chipsets I would recommend TCCD for you if you can't get your hands into any good old BH-5. Also both Redline HP3200 and Redline XP4000 has gone EOL and we don't manufacture them anymore.

In my opinion TCCD is your best bet if you can't get BH-5.

 

[intel igent]

bh-5/tccd would be my best bet?

what chips were being used on the redlines? how come EOL?

thnx zebbo

 

[Zebbo]

Yes, BH-5 and TCCD would be your best bet. Personally I would try to find some nice clocking 2x512Mb BH-5 modules since 2x256Mb is no good for anything else than benching anymore.

With 865/875 chipset the timings affects more to performance than they do on A64 so I would try to get that BH-5 somewhere and if you can't possibly find any, just go with TCCD

utt ch5, and its EOL because that die isnt being manufactured anymore (to my understanding), if you want some my local microcenter still sells it. Shoot me a pm if your interested.

That is pretty much how the story goes

Hello Mushkin geek type people

I was on your site earlier eyeing up RAM for my system. (Currently running 1GB and a half of mediocre/cheapo stuff)

After browsing for a while and using your Analysis tool doofer I spyed this:

Mushkin (991434) 2 Gb HP3200 Dual Pack 2 3 2 (2 x 1GB)

Now, if I give my ASUS P4S800D-X/Asus P4P800-E Deluxe 4 sticks of this it should fly right?
(it/they can take 4GB of RAM)

I am not (really) a gamer (Shock horror and yes I am a freak) however I do use Bryce, Paintshoppro w/FraxFlame plug-in and a lot of other image editing software like Fireworks etc and I multi task while using all of the above running at the same time a lot.

The other day I maxxed out of RAM (One was not amused) while working away so hence shopping about for RAM up to the task.

So oh Guru's of the Mushkin kit, what say you?
Will it allow me to do what I need to do with no quibbles and no holds barred no matter how hard I push it without OC'ing it. & will it also make enough Case modders make the appropriate "oohs" and "Ahhhhs" and cause suitable amounts of dribble when I mention I got 4 Gigs of your bad boy kit in my rig?

(Bearing in mind you sell me kit and it sucks I am an Infantry trained soldier and can take your head off from 800m with a 5.56mm rifle.)

 

[Duonger]

those should work well. the are very stable memory built with infineon chips. and the latency should allow you to do things faster also.

[G.T]

Good enough for me.

Thanks.

 

[G.T]

/ordered a set

Should arrive Tuesday. =]

 

[G.T]

It arrive.
It got installed.
It's sweet as.

Many thanks. =]

memory help

i am about to buy a two gb kit and i was wondering would these mushkin sticks.....N82E16820146366 ....be good for an all around gaming and media center pc...w/no over clocking.....nevermind...i bought corsair

 

[Zebbo]

Hello to you all,

I had a little holiday and I was few weeks away. However, I'm back now and here to help you all and I'm ready to answer for your questions

 

[G.T]

Any chance of a discount on my next 2 gigs of uber groovey Musking RAM?

 

[Zebbo]

As far as I know I'm not authorized to give permission for discounts, I'm sorry

 

[Steevo]

What has you gots for low latentcy uber high speed?

Something in 2Gb kit, 3.3.3.7ish, and DDR500 with a little headroom?

 

[Zebbo]

We got Redline XP4000 2x1GB using timings of 3-3-2-8, here's the link for the product page.

 

[Rammsteiner]

Im also thinking to get that kit. But I want to be 100% sure its going to do 290Mhz... Can I be that for at least 99%?

 

[Zebbo]

There's only very very very few amount modules that will do the 290MHz 3D stable. Average is pretty much from 260 to 280. Personally I haven't even seen a CE-6 chips doing 290MHz 3D stable. I've heard but I haven't seen.

The problem is on the chips and they can't take that high of an frequency, so it's all about the batch Infineon sends to us. I guess the chance to get kit that will do is about 3-5% no matter the manufacturer. Chips just can't take it.

 

[Rammsteiner]

Ok, thx for you reply . I read in Anandtech's 2GB round up (part 2) they reached 293Mhz 3-3-2-7/8 @ 2.8V. Oh well, its still a nice kit .

 

[Zebbo]

Oh, so it seems. I was not aware of that at all However, looking good

 

[Solaris17]

hey zebbo can u reccomend me plain DDR ram like 3200+ maybe? not hard care ocing ram or anything 2x512 decent timing ram would be awsome any thing u would reccomend naturally i can look but since you here..............
