Great! It's a new date too, so must be the "new" BH5
How many volts can you give them?
Is this full stable?? This ram looks really good to me =], especially when I look on price ;-)Quote:

note: nothing wrong with cooling.
to answer some questions
*they are 1A4T
*bought them from a local store.
*rock solid stable @ 2.5V 200FSB.
What did you get at 3.2v?
as I said before, just give me some time.Quote:

Those are the UTT(possible) chips. There are new onescoming with a different serial code on the end. 1a4t(new BHish stuff) vs. aa4t (UUT). I apologize if I got the codes wrong but you'll find the link you just posted is for the UTT stuff.
yea, all 3 of the reviewers that overclocked the ram are xtremsystems.org members. i'll buy some soon. or maybe the ocz cheapo stuff.
Yeah problem is the Newegg ones arent UTT anymore, they switched to "powerchip" AADT (as shown in picture now) and they suck in comparison to UTT chips AA4T. Ive got a RMA set of AA4T to go back, but with the chance that I might get AADT in exchange I think Ill go for refund instead and take the %15 hit.
Hopefully we can hit some 1A4T before the sharks buy it all up. Getting any SpeedPremium sticks on Newegg has been impossible.... too many people buying them.
Chances are the 1A4T "new BH5" will bring some nice results.... tweak away.
so those ones linked by -vtx are not safe to buy? the twinmos pc3200 regular 2x512mb?
then i guess i gotta get the ocz if i want utt cheap.
This is the data I've got.
these tests were done using memtest test 5
system:
3.0gh northwood
Msi neo-2 865 motherboard
zalman psu 400w
AA4T was tested on the same system--> 257fsb @ 3.7v 2-2-2-5
this is for 1A4t
@ 2-2-2-5
2.7v --> 210fsb Pass12 = no errors
2.8v --> 220fsb Pass230 = no errors
2.9v --> 225fsb pass5 = no errors
3.0v --> 230fsb pass3 = 2 errors
3.1v --> 230fsb pass2 = 2 errors
3.3v --> 230fsb pass0 = 4 errors
3.4v --> 230fsb pass0 = 225 errors
3.5v --> 230fsb pass0 = 2233 errors
3.6v --> 230fsb pass0 = 22961 errors
-__________________________________-
@ 2-2-2-10
3.0v --> 230fsb pass10 = no errors
3.0v --> 235fsb pass0 = 6 errors
3.1v --> 235fsb pass0 = 16 error

Conclusion:
This chip is certainly not BH-5. It hates voltages higher than 3.3v. It works fine with lower voltages but it does not impress. Also, burning in has no effect on this chip.
If you want a chip that works on low voltages, get your self a TCCD.
If you want a chip that works on high voltages, get a AA4T.
Buying this chip is pointless.
*this test is done with an intel setup. results with amd's are not known.
what a dissapiontment.
Yeah. I regret buying them.Quote:

All the tests were done with a 120mm 80cfm fan on top of the modules.Quote:

Seems strange, but maybe it is just an Intel issue.... AMD64 tend to make a lot more out of the RAM they are given...
Ya Alonso got 250@3.3v on AMD so it might be Intel or just crappy sticks...
ot Shirakawa man do you actualy have those opertons and that much ram as in the sig ? That would be a nice gaming server :)
intel has never had problems with bh5, just tccd
doesnt really have TCCD problems, just cant go as far... just as BH-5 cannot really go as far either....the intel nb works well but its no on die controller...
however, this doesnt explain the performance of shriwaka's RAM.

you should consider that this new release of BH5 is supposed to be made with a smaller proccess-->less voltage neededQuote:
