theoritcally it is possible with the 512mb chips you just have twice the chance that 1 chip on your sticks will be bad making your sticks have bad clocks....

I've never had 512 that were better than 256's. But they came within at least 5%

3ghz without sub-zero cooling is going to be very hard if not impossible.

some heavy watercooling you must have there :eek:
Good luck on it, but if you want 275 on those sticks, they'll need _high_ voltage or "lower" timings (2.5-3-3-7 or so)
