Actually, some shops in Europe have had the PC3500 & PC3700 EB in stock all the time. But the prices are unbelievable - over 370 euros for a 1 GB of EB PC3700 - that's around $450 :censored:

What prices are we looking for 2x256mb of 3700eb? what if we throw in 250fsb at 3-2-2-8 at 2.88v guaranteed? I am aware 3700eb wont ever be close to corsair value and it shouldnt because its superior. my 250fsb with value is an exception, a steller example. Most of them probably max at 220fsb or so. I did max at around that with my nf7-s so maybe the way the a64 uses the ram caused it to oc so high? Maybe a tiny amount of that corsair value used speed binned chips from OCz eb ram that didnt make 3700 speeds when tested in a non a64, but they never tested it in the a64 ;) by the time I upgrade my ram, id be on a 3.5GHz a64 or something. my current ram is going nowhere. how much does 2x256mb of 3700eb go for again?
so you'd be upgrading in uhh 3 years?:slobber:
Yea EU prices suck the big one! Try ordering from the USA or Canada :toast:Quote:

I can get 250fsb at lower multis, my cpu can not do 2.25GHz stable at 9x
yes I fully understand but at what multi?
And then they scan the box arriving in Europe... 33% customs duty :mad:Quote:

I can do 250fsb at any multi below 9x. as for x800se, who cares when the 9800 pro is better anyway?
cool but could you show me?
X800SE is 8-pipes just like the 9800Pro. :stick:Quote:

lol no it doesnt but nice try,..
plz show a cpu-z "first page" screenie..
can you show me what a first page cpuz should look like? maybe this?
http://www.imagemagician.org/images/acemann/a64mhz.bmp
but this doesnt show the ram, just the 318fsb
Anyway, let's get back on topic... this has turned into another of Geforce4Ti4200's "I want to show off my Corsair Value" threads.
ot a bit more..:
Am I the only one wondering about the CPU / 9 multi.. How´s the math for calculating mem speed again..
*edit... seems to be adding up fine..
