Get the BH-5's now. Honestly they are tried and tested. Waiting for BH-4's and if they suck, then you have no other options, You would have no problem selling these bh5's down the road, you wouldnt be stuck with them.
can't have that!!Quote:

open up that wallet and get yourself some good ram while it lasts.
i'm not a member of the XS 3dmark team quite yet. but once my main rig gets finished i should be in the neighborhood to put up respectable numbers.
Im not a member of the XS 3D Team, im a menber of the Tweak2Limit.dk 3D Team, my website, we have one world record with a Gforce2 MX400 in 3Dmark03
But im Ordering some Mushkin tonigt when i comes home....

i was waiting fot this.... thats why i have 4x256mb ADATA bh5 and 2x256 OCZ BH5 and 2x512mb Corsair BH5 :D
I have corsair pc3200 value ram, a 256mb stick. How do I find out what quality it is? ch5? bh6? bh5? other? I had it tested at 190fsb at 2-2-2-6 timings but my kt400 is holding me back though. anyone think 225MHz at 2.9v with 2-2-2-6 timings is reasonable? and Maxvla, congras on your a64. going the amd route now eh? you should get over 20k easy. one thing I dont understand, why is your ram at 335? I thought the 9800 pros came at 340 stock on the ram. pretty respectable core clock though but the low ram clocks can cost you a couple hundered marks as the core matters much more though. I havent the money for new ram anyway and if bh5 ram goes up in price, so be it ill just live with whatever fsb my ram can do, games will still fly anyhow and I hope theres really good ram 2 years from now when I get a 3.5GHz a64 overclocked to like 4.2GHz :)
I've just bought another pack of Mushkin PC3500 lvl2 :D
£150
I have my OCZ LE here, but I'm not getting much out of them, I don't know if its the RAM, CPU or motherboard, and I don't have the cash to pick up any more RAM.
AAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I might have to see if I can hunt down some cheap ADATA BH-5 over here or something when I get paid...
It's best simply said, "There won't be Winbond BH-4 chips."
I can confirm that winbond has cancelled any BH-4 production plans. I think the focus is on the less expensive to manufacture CH-5's and then DDR2.
BH-4 DDR2? :D
Yeah thats what i've thought too, it would make the most sense.Quote:

Bh4 is a no go..the B die has been killed off.
Ch4 may come but winbond are getting into TFT's now so they are slowing down on DRAM production.
I spoke to kingston at CES...guess what, they ran out of BH5 also!!
doesn't ddr2 run really crappy timings anyway?
Yes and no.
they aren't great, but if you can run it at 800mhz what does it matter?
I'm betting that whatever comes out next will be at least as good. Might be proved wrong...
if ddr2 ram sucks, Ill have to put off upgrading my cpu longer than 2 years since that ram would be slower than what I have already and its a downgrade for the part. cant be more than 3-4 years before really good ram that owns the best ram today comes out
man you guys need to send me some of this bh-5 you got.. im still on some crappy generic pc2100 and you guys each have like 4 gigs of bh-5 :(
bahhh i got some Kingston CH5 that runs well 1:1 but has compatibility issues on my IC7-G... no go over 260. send me some BH5 ram guys!! please. lol
mushkin apparently has pc2700 bh5 modules.
everyone is after 3200 ram chips
wouldnt the pc2700 overclock jus as well maby 5% less than pc3200?
hmmm...Quote:
