anyone have any info on the axeram 1200mz with dfi p35 boards? mine is the LP UT P35 T2R

With a P35 chipset there should be no problems. Just set them to 5 5-5-15 at 2.2 Volts. Make sure your voltage setting is reflected in hardware monitor, and adjust if need be.
 
i'v gotta put on my thinking cap for this one
 
initialy my goal was to clock the AXERAM PC2 8500 to 1200mhz because i read so many newegg reviews saying people were doing this. any opinions on that?
also what is the difference betwen the Patriot VIPER and EXTREME PERFORMANCE memory? is it just the heatsinks?
 
i got 4 sticks of this stuff, kicks ass, only my boards taking a crap on me, bad ram slot, once i get the board replaced i will post some results on my best ram clocks, till then.....well i managed 1066 out of the 800s with 5-5-5-15 timings at 2.1v
 
My new Transcend Axeram PC2 8500 is on ebay for sale now will show 100% positive seller.
In case anyone is interested.
 
my 1200mhz axe's show up tomarrow, so does my 9600gt comes back from rma. so i'm like a kid before x-mas waiting on the brown santa to show up.

once i get the axe's in and tweeked, i'll post up some results.

i also want to thank Palit_Guy for taking care of me on the rma. ty man

I'm gonna buy a 790I board because I have a geforce video card and will have no need for DDR2 1200. I should get a good price on my maximus formula because now its a Rampage. With the rebates a 790I is within my reach now. Just playing with the idea right now if there is any intrest in my motherboard and ram I may do it. Selling my motherboard for 255.00 shipped. Will sell the two together as a combo for 365.00 shipped. Thats 30.00 less than trancends online store sells the ram for and about 35.00 to 40.00 less than a MF/Rampage cost. Plus the stalker game comes with it. If not I will keep it and buy a new ati card and sell the geforce card.Plus buy some ram. I'm not unhappy at all with this motherboard. It is the best I have owned and Like I said I'm playing with the idea. You guys know me I change computer parts like underwear. I'm so satisfied with this rig I'm bored. May just put it on ebay as a buy it now combo wonder if it will sell? I would think it would it's like getting a rampage , 2 GB ddr2 1200 for and additional 65.00, with free shipping and a game.

you know what the more I look into this its really a stupid Idea . Lets just file that one. I'm not going to sell this board or ram. It's a waste. A new socket will be out in 6 months and a new chip and ATI will also have a new video card out. It time to stop for a while. This systems is plent fast no need to change anything.

Smart!:D I was ready to get the soldering iron out on my cards today, and realized the same thing, plus if I mess these cards up, I don't want to sink more money into another 3870 a couple months before HD4XXX series is out. My Q6600 and Maximus will provide happy computing for at least six months! Prices will be lower on DDR3, etc., etc. Don't let the axeram die!:toast:

You'll be able to drop the tRAS down to 12 or less with the axeram too, it's just a generic set of timings so that they're sure they'll work. On my Crucial Ballistix modules, which used the Micron D9GMH chips, i was able to run 1200 5-5-5-10 with 2.25v, but the axeram sticks use much higher binned chips than the Ballistix ones i had, so you may be able to do even better.

If they're cheaper, and there's lots of positive feedback about them reaching 1200+, then go for it! :)

The serial number indicates G9 chips on both looks like the viper heat spreaders is the only difference. The axe ram chips are 145.00 on trancends web page.

Trancend online store is out of axe ram DDR2 1200 so I think we are all out of luck. Mine is for sale for sure the first person who wants them PM me. I'm gonna buy some OCZ ram or team extreeme. Asking 120.00 shipped mine work great but if you buy them some boards still won't run them at ddr2 1200. I recommend Asus, Gigabyte p35 or Asus MF/RF. I'm going to buy a 4 gig kit. Since I cannot buy these I'm gonna go else where. I'm pissed was gonna keep these.
