Twinmos Twister PC4000

[Dominos]

Does anyone know what timings these sticks use at 500mhz? I know it's CL2.5 but what about the rest? 3-3-7? 4-4-8? I'm thinkin about getting two 512 sticks of this kind and was wondering what timings they could do at ~220 and 3-3.2v? They are suppose to do CL2.5 at 2.5v aswell at 500mhz.

I have also looked at A-Data PC4000 so I could ask the same about those, timings at 220 and 3-3.2v?

What I really want is 1gig of RAM that can do pretty good timings at 220FSB, I don't have enough money to buy some really expensive sticks like a good kit of Corsair or OCZ nor BH-5/6 but I'm open to sugestions ;)

at 220 they did 2-3-3-11 for me ...

nice ram - can do low latencies quite well as high fsb ...

[Dominos]

at what volts did they do 2-3-3-11? I can give them 3.2v if I want to so :D And its the Twister you're talking about, right?

Rock stable 2.85V 260Mhz 2.5/4/4/7/8

i did it with 2.9V on epox 8RDA+ ...

as for over 250fsb - i could barely take it to 255 ....

[Dominos]

Well it sound like some nice RAM, looks like I'll be getting me a couple of these :D Now I only need to find someone who wants to buy my 256mb KHX PC3500 sticks...

i saw a review where the 4000s did 250 2-3-3 iirc

they oc really high with 2.5-3-3-x!

[althes]

do they do better with cas 3

[saaya]

yepp but not much iirc , wasnt worth going from 2.5 to 3

you would be far better off buying corsair value if 220fsb is all you want. my 512mb corsair value does 2-2-3-11 at 220fsb and may do even more on different mobos. unfortunately the cas-ras delay of 3 makes it no good for a64s. ill probably either get pc3700 ram and push it to 250fsb at 2.5-3-3-7 or pc4200 at 300+ 3-4-4-8 both will be far superior to my ram for an a64

[Dominos]

Maybe soo, but if I get an A64 later and the ram cant run over 230 even at 3-4-4-8, then what? I'm getting PC4000 sticks so that I wont have to upgrade when I get a new CPU and mobo that might run at 250 or more. I have had 2x256 corsair value before, they are not bad sticks but its always fun to try something new and the price difference is small enough to ignore soo. And don't forget that 512 sticks often OC worse then 256 sticks...
