Pretty darn sure considering they have identical chip markings and are both speed premium. Put it this way, why would twinmos build there new "speed premium" pc3200 sticks with winbond chips on their 256mb sticks and not on their 512mb pc3200 speed premium sticks of the exact same model? :rolleyes: We'll know for sure when mine and trans arrive tomorrow for sure.Quote:

Ask tictac if this is all theory. Quote is from his post in the previous page.Quote:

I believe there is validity to the AA4T "theory". So does tictac.

Tictac. Was that a speed premium stick or just regular twinmos?
geeze both TWINMOS SPEED PREMIUM SOLD OUT at newegg :(
Twinmos isn't like OCZ, Mushkin, Geil, Corsair or so companies. These companies that I listed, as you say use a spesific chip for a model. But Twinmos isn't like them ;) So isn't Kingston :DQuote:

that could also be an old image on newegg's site. the 256 could be a newer image. Also remeber that kingston image eith the BH-5? I think it's safe to say that is old too. But MAybe that could be a loophole if you ordered to confirm what it was and get a rma and say it's not what the picture showed.
that stuff doesnt say speed premium though but i'll wait on your results :)Quote:

The only thing that does concern me is that it's not labelled as Speed Premium like Trans-Am's is, but at £22 you cant go wrong! :D

Anyone tried that one?
yea a few pages back... he said he got CH-5
Yes, I got CH-5.
after some googleing i found this russian website that had some news on winbond UTT ram.
Here is the text translated from Babel Fish:
"As reports the Taiwan Internet- resource DigiTimes, referring to the producers of the modules of memory, company Winbond of beginning recently the production of its first chips UTT DRAM (Untested DRAM - chips, which do not pass testing after production). I will recall that some time Winbond back concluded large agreement about the collaboration with the German giant Infineon Technologies (see news for 6 August), in accordance with which it reoriented the part of its power from production Pseudo SRAM (PSRAM) to production DRAM. The general productivity of the re-equipped lines composes 10 thousand. 200 mm of silicic plates per month; however, because orders Infineon cover it not completely, Winbond decided to use the unoccupied part for the production of its own chips DRAM. At the given moment the volume of production UTT DRAM find on the sufficiently low level, however, according to the data of the Taiwan producers of the modules of memory, in the next months Winbond it can bring it to the level 3 mln. chips in the 2shch'-megabitnom equivalent. Itself Winbond thus far in no way comments on situation with production UTT DRAM."
i also found this news headline: "Infineon transfers 90nm DRAM technology to Winbond" but u have to pay to read the news so fk that :rolleyes:
so maybe these UTT's are made on 0.9nm! :eek:
that could explain why they run so cool even though were shoveing 3.5++V's up its ass! :stick: :D
mine just 256MB TwinMOS PC3200 not the speed premium
the AAD is not winbond UTT in my memory :(

My friend is getting a new rig soon, I think I can handpick a few for him from the store and return the non-UTT ones. I'll be sure to give you guys a report on my success.
handpick ... such a nice word ...Quote:

:toast: :toast: :toast: . nice Work!Quote:

of cource ill post :D
and twinmos speed premium is the good stuff. confirmed that they are useing UTT on all speed premium. non speed premium is luck of the draw.
What would the the chips be labeled as in other brands, for example I know that kingston sometimes relabels chips with their label, so does A-data.
I saw a deal at Fry's in today's paper that says you can get 1GB of Mushkin Enhanced memory for 139$ what would those chips look/be labeled as?
My stick of ram arrived from Komplett.co.uk today.
Unfortunately I got the AADT ram as well :mad:
The full details of the stick is:
Part number : M2G9108A8AMK 9F081AADT
Model number : M2G9108A-MK
marking on chips are : Mtec 0447D TTD7608F8E50D
They boot at 2.6v upto 235mhz at cas2 3-3-8 2T on my arock mobo. My OCZ booster should be back from RMA tomorrow from OCuk.
Oh well, didn't get the UTT but this ram runs OK. Cannot complain for £21

why didnt you order these :confused:
