I saw the sale price on those -- nice buy.

Those memory chips did not work in my system as it would reboot itself when I start running Folding@Home. I ended up getting the Corsair 2x1GB kit instead.

Hope they work out for you.

Well i read a few reviews and they seem to be good, but you can't really trust them reviewers especially if they get the mem for free. I'll let you guys know, besides i can always just rma the **** if it sux.

I'm hopeing this helps with BF2 as well (:

OK, here we go. I did two runs of each.

Sisoft sandra scores

OCZ mem no Overclock 2.5/4/4/9

buffered:
int 5497/float 5440
int 5503/float 5436
unbuffered:
int 2822/float 2573
int 2458/float 2577

OCZ mem @ 1:1 230

buffered:
int 6332/float6259
int 6325/float 6260
unbuffered:
int 2822/float 2959
int 2822/float 2964

PQI mem no Overclock 2.5/4/4/8

buffered:
int 5527/float 5468
int 5493/float 5401
unbuffered:
int 2456/float 2599
int 2467/float 2599

I haven't done the 230fsb with this mem yet, i'll post those scores when I do, i did run at 230 for a bit, but crashed, it could be due to not enough vdimm. Doesn't really matter because with BF2 (which is all i do lately) i only need a faster vid card lol. Although the 2gig does seem to have helped, i haven't had a single hitch in bf2 yet.

sorrow, I can't get a POST on the OCZ @ 240, with any timings. 3-4-4-8 will get me up to about 235, and I think I can maintain 2.5-3-3-6 to about 227. The OCZ seems to dislike anything over 2.75v in a big way. Ticking me, because I wanted to clear 240.

Eager to see your PQI results.

I will say

sorrow · 07-16-2005, 10:23 AM

the OCZ that is still listed in my sig, loves 2.8vdimm, and this cpu combo doesn't want to go above 240 stable for me so ): but i'm pretty happy with the memory... I'll mess around with some ocing this morning
