any ideas where i can get this ram at? 1 stick of my 'mushkin pc3500 black level 2' died the other day and i cant seem to find it any where else.. also i have read on some of the forums that the pc3200 black level 2 may OC better then 3500.. or maybe a better bang for the buck from another ram company? any suggestions are welcome, thx in advance.

RMA the dead stick back to Mushkin.

do you think they will have ram set asside to replace it? this is the bh-5 im talkin about btw.. it was discontinued, im worried about not getting the bh-5 back. i dont think i can send just the dead stick back cuz it was a double pack. so im pretty sure i need to RMA both sticks.

Some guy on another forum said they let him RMA 1 of his two matched sticks. Call and ask :toast:

im not sure CarpeDiem, i had just recently gotten my intel board back from RMA, imagine that, anyways i hooked it up and installed windows. for some reason every time i booted i got this 'ntldr is missing' error. only os on the hdd, so i figured i had a hardware problem. turns out one of my stix or ram are dead, and it killed dimm slot 3, and when i tested each stick individually the same stick killed the 1st dimm slot as well, cause of killing the stick of ram is unknown... but its dead now and i need it replaced :( ill try sending in just the 1 stick and see what they say.. its newegg.com so theres no telling. thx for all the posts guys, if anyone knows where or who i can get a replacement from let me know, incase i cant get it replaced by newegg.com.

There are many sites that have the Mushkin 3200 available. I havent seen anywhere that has the 3500 available.

I am curious how there new BH6 that is out now performs.

Geforce4ti4200,

i am going to RMA the mobo, the funny thing is, i had to RMA the mobo BEFORE the 90 days were up because it was retail, and today i made a couple suicide runs with my kingston hyperx ch-5 lol.. but i went to flash my bios to the newest 13 bios.. and it turns out the bios were already flashed to 13 bios.. so apparently they didnt give me a new board.. which is total bs and i should comment about it..

Hell-Fire,

ive heard both good and bad about the 3200 bh-6, i decided to order the kingston khx3200k2 which is bh-5.

check my BH5/BH6 thread theres some links to level 2 pc3200 which uses the same chips as the level 2 pc3500
and IIRC i think one of the ones listed under pc3200 might actually be level 2 pc3500 but i was too lazy to make a category for it
