2gbzx can hit ddr 500? @ what timing?
because im planning to get 1.
im a bit confused on hx and zx..
I first got the ZX and it had all kinds of stability problems in games, even though it passed all stress tests. I returned it and got the HX, and it DOES do 250HTT 1:1, but it won't do it for me on a divider, you see I have a dual core opty 165, and it goes up to 2.5GHz for me with 278HTT * 9, and when I set the divider to 9:10 with 278HTT, that comes out to be exactly 250MHz, but for some stupid reason it will not work on the divider, only 1:1. I am being forced to use 5:6.

so you mean zx will not run stable in ddr 500?
It wouldn't run stable at stock speed. I don't know if I just got a bad kit or what, but when I put in the HX they worked fine. They might have just not liked DFI.
ya sure u got a bad kit
since my kit can do DDR520 3-3-2-7 @ 2.7 volt stable
there r lots of users with success stories getting more than DDR500 and stable

@ safrout
good night man!
im planning to get some zx can you post your max oc?
right now i am 100% stable @ DDR480 2.5-3-2-7 @ 2.7vdimm only :)
i got my hx running at 3-3-2-0 250MHz, I could probably do 2.5 cas with more tweaking

to hit ddr500 just get a 2GBHZ it rated at DDR500 3-4-4-8
other than 2GBHZ is not rated @ DDR500
