Just to rub it in.. all you guys fighting over D9 kits I have GKX and GMH kits.. nana :D
Same here Ket. I have more D9GMH than I know what to do with, and two kits of D9GKX (Cellshock 8000 C5 and Team 9600 C5). I have one Dominator 10000 C5 kit that I'm not sure if it's GMH or GKX.
@waterflex, yep there the same ones you post from newegg (at least there the same part #)hoping they will be good (d9)
They should be ok, but I doubt they'll be as good as your CellShock. Good luck with them, post some benches when they come in.
@cryptik,will do.by the way got my cell shocks up to 1300 but system was not stable. gonna keep tweaking though.
Anybody interested in some xtreem team ddr-2 10400 runs 1300, i have a brand new 2 gb kit ? pm me.
I just made the switch back to DDR2 from DDR3 and picked up a Asus Rampage Formula along with a 2GB kit of CellShock PC2-6400 (800Mhz @ 4-4-4-12 and their verified D9GKX). I switched from a DFI X48-T3R and a 2GB kit of D9GTR and hadn't used DDR2 RAM for a few months so its taking some time to get back into it. I just barely got everything up and running last night and at the moment I'm running the RAM at default speeds and clocks but I'm hopful this RAM will be capable of decent speeds and latencies! My last kit of DDR2 (before making the switch to DDR3) was a 2GB kit of Ballistix PC2-8500 with D9GMH IC's (infact I've come to like GMH over GKX from the testing I've done over time). Granted GKX is usually binned higher but I"ve just had better results with GMH in my own testing. I traded my old Swiftech MCP-655 waterpump for this 2GB kit of Cellshocks so I'm hoping I can get some decent results from them!
Between GMH and GKX I have to say both kinda of ICs are about equal, although from my experiences GKX tends to do the same clocks as GMH at lower voltages, which is always a nice bonus. Right now I'm trying to figure out why my system keeps failing OCCT, think it has something to do with CPU M-E, so if it is that, no real surprises there :p:
Hey thats a stroke of genius I should have painted those dominators pink!:lol2: I wasn't going to mention it but I've also beaten up old ladies and knocked over guys in wheelchairs while stealing their D9 ram sticks.:D
Ok sounds like my board might have reached its limit, which is fine its probably better just using the second set as backup. Not to mention my operating system is XP Home.

I might have to try that. I also have a few small fans that would fit perfectly on the heatsinks, I was using them on my 650i northbridge heatsink. I wonder if this would also help with my inability to crack 500 fsb.Quote:

meh just crank the volts up ram up that fsb ans :banana::banana::banana::banana: it! it's only a mobo crank it up, some of these p45's need 1.4v+ to crack 500fsb.
Now Phil you know thats not the proper way of things, stop encouraging him to blow his mobo up :p:
well heres my cellshocks at 1116mhz stock voltage (2.3V) and timings 5-5-5-15-2t pl8 (stock is pl7)

thats alot of juice for that speed my kingston value d9gmh can do 1200 with 2.3v and my ballistix can do it with 2.02vQuote:

I get 238 with 1,8 vdimm.Tried also 2.0 vdimm, but no better results..
238 MHz? How is that even possible? Something is very wrong mate. Should get 500 CL 4, 550+ @ 5-4-4.
My Ballistix are struggling to do 650MHz CL5 on the DFI LT P35, I'm playing with the DRAM CLK Fine Delay settings but it looks like they want a lot of VDIMM on this board. I'm already up to 2.45V in BIOS. This is on 433 FSB by the way, 2:3 divider. DDR2-1300 hasn't come as easily to me as others for some reason.
I think my cell shocks are lower binned micron d9gmh's because even my old ballistix 667mhz d9gmh's can do better at lower volts, I just dont get it.
Patriot Viper PC2-9600 (D9GKX?) at 2.0v. This overclock has passed OCCT 2hr. mix and can run overnight crunching seti/climate prediction. CPU vcore is 1.280v under load.
i doubt its d9gkxQuote:

Are you sure they haven't degraded? My Team 1200 D9GKX only need 2.12v for 600MHz on my DFI P35.Quote:

AmpX pc-8000 5.5.5.15 2.3V on the 3:5 that should be the 2:3
