OC Report: Mushkin PC6400 SP2+ 2x1 GB
Recently I have got three various sets of Mushkin memory from my local distributor. I chose this pair for the first review, as I elected to reward this cheap, budget and economic set :)

In my opinion it's brilliant achievement as it's not D9 memory and only 2.3v real :D

They overclock like hell minding that they are so chip :yepp: Value Mushkin ram crushes other brands :clap: They also run very nice in 4x1 GB configuration. Sticks are based on Powerchip ICs. Their sweetpoint in terms of voltage is equal 2.3v (real) - 2.35v in bios.

The only fault I see is temperature. They are so hot as D9.
Summing up Mushkin had done excellent job creating model SP2 (Elpida chips) and now did better (adding heatsinks and changing chips). Which brand is going to beat them? :cool:
