cheap DDR2 prices, decent cooling, enough performance @ 1066 ,
D9?
hope the cooling is as efficient as the picture shows ...
loved their DDR1 ONE series ....

Not Price (more expensive than Black Dragon , normal) , Not news for the Chips (Micron , hynix , Promos ...)

I recieved the Sample next week and in Stock for sale soon (1/2 week max i think) :)

Agreed, GEiL ONE DDR1 600MHZ are great (I still have a 2x512MB kit of them).

If it is D9 I could use that 8GB 1066MHz CL5 Quad kit, otherwise i'll look elsewhere.

Doesn't Geil have a somewhat "crappy" customer service in USA compare to other companies?

So a modern motherboard would be able to support a quad channel kit?

That would be an understatement....

Horrible, god aweful, pathetitc, a disgrace. Those are the words that come to mind for me.

The whole "Quad Channel" thing is just marketing. It's simply 4 memory modules. So the answer to your question is: Yes. As long as you have 4 memory slots, you're good.

it doens't matter what ICs it uses TBH

all that matters is that they clock like mad while holding tight timings and are able to survive in spite of it.

wait a second... after looking closely, these are just an improvement to an already current trend, that being adding the fins to help dissipate the heat from the memory modules.... so what is going to be so special about this when we already have companies like thermalright making you a quad set for 4 memory modules with room for dual fans on the top to blow a fast and i mean fast breeze of cool air over the memory modules and thus reduce heat by a good chunk

its just a heatpipe attached to the top of the heatspreader with some heatsink like fans on it.

the usual "problem" with the "standard" heatspreaders is the small surface area, Geil basically attached a big surface area heatsink with a heatpipe, the difference to thermalright is that attaching thermalright cooler to ram = warranty lost...
but, geil's customer service quality is also like warranty lost:p:

I wonder what the 2GB x4 pc8500 will do when overclock. I hope they can run 600mhz stable. That will be great!

but 8GB there is no game that use that max mem issent?

tragic false advertising, ICs at 30 degrees with the cooling fins at 50 degrees?
they must think overclocking is for retards :*(
