It seems the NFII tests aren't going to happen. Perhaps someone here with an NFII who purchases these sticks could run a few tests?

hopefully they will do the same or better than your BH sticks. If so I am thinking of selling my BH-6 for these.

I will try and find a NF 2 that will handle the voltage , but try and remeber NF2 with 2x512 was never really a ram problem but instead a memory controller problem, so if you have BH-5 I am not sure upgrading to these is the right path

I will give it a whirl though

They don't clock higher with looser timings so there isn't much point.

I should have some NF 2 results at high voltage for you guys early next week unless someone else gets to it first

Thanks a lot Ryan. I appreciate it. I understand about the chipset being limited however I am still curious. Second of all I am wanting to go 939 but am not happy with the current board selection. As soon as DFI releases their board I may jump the gun. I figured having the ram now would save me down the road as long as they can at least keep up to my 2 x 512mb kit on my current board until then. I am worried of yields changing and getting crappier chips or no chips down the road if things change.

I want to note I did find a really good store in The UK that seems to price things more reasonably

ebuyer got one of the worst reseller ratings and reputations ever :/

Got some Mushkin BH-5 instead :[

Exactly the same situation here, so any results would be good.

yack 240-245 isn't nearly as good was I was hoping for. When these actually hit the market I hope to see lots of postings on performance. Again it seems like a lot inconsistency on what these chips can do.

hmmm just noticed.... this was on a NF3 150 board? Perhaps that has something to do with it?

Is this the voltmaster memory?

Talking about ridicules prices.. in Iceland 2x512mb OCZ 3700EB costed 650$..
But all computer prices here are 50% higher here.. So high taxes and so on :|

So I do most of my business with the USA :)
