thats what i meant! I got 2x256 BH5!
yeh after convincing myself, I cancelled the order for it :p
god now im having second thoughts too...
hrmmmmmmm
edit - well its only $138 and i need 2x256 to run this axp rig fast anyways... 2x512 just doesnt work...
lol, ordered it purely because I was away from computers when BH-5 was around :)
This is a good deal for those people who want BH5. Me? I'm buying Corsair BH5 used. I have 4 gigs of it. Why? Dunno.
:confused: :confused: :confused:
If its just for gaming and everyday usage its a big waste of money...
Latency gives next to 0 performance in games...
Unless you are playing with a 6800U or X800XT in 800x600 with no detail or sumthin...
Edit: otherwise i would go for it... I had 2x256 of these and they did 239Mhz 2-2-2-5@2.8v...
But sadly i needed to have 1GB... So i just sold em and got 2x512 modules of PC4000 since i saw a couple reviews where every single 1 stated that timings dont add performance in games...
One good reason would be for Nostaliga reasons the last new BH-5 sold!!
Great collector item. :banana2:

I bought a 512, hope it will OC well.
clsed for holiday :S
Seems like I was able to order one before they closed for holiday.
I've got my orderconfirmation and all
Indeed I was wrong. I remember reading a post when I was looking for these on ebay (when I couldnt find em anywhere else) that said this guy did it at like 3.2 :|. But looking now I guess it was a sales pitch *shrugs*
Well the final price for 2x 256 mb sticks came to about $175 :P (with the 10% discount) but it doesn't matter since I live in sweden, it is cheap :) (about $115 in american dollars if it was 5 years ago)
yikes, that some sick shipping, mine awas $138
geeze nextro....i could have sent mine KHX3200/256*2 for less :P
Interesting:DQuote:

I'm gunna have to check back with them and see what's up with this BH-5 deal.

that would be awesome if they would let you switch that in for some more bh-5..
guess i was wrong heh...
Maybe they took all the bad RMAed sticks and repaired them and threw them up for sale:D

Could it be possible that OCZ VX uses the same chips?
IMHO only the Bh5-Chips can be given up to 3.6V
But I am waiting for the first reviews. I got my Geil UltraX just 3 weeks ago.
gonna get one pair :)
no hardware freak, for 2 reasons
1 - the ocz sticks need 3.2 volts just for 2225 at DDR400, somethine BH-5 does with 2.5volts
2 - ocz said that the new IC's were not of limited availability, BH-5 is all but extinct
opp, that sounds pretty likely, or maybe they took all of the good IC's off of the RMA'd sticks, because odds are one bad IC can make a whole stick bad, so no sense in throwing away the whole stick right?
Hes mistaken , 340-370 would be nice but I think he means 240-270
I can't find them? :confused: :confused:
Sooner or later someone will come up with newer, faster and better memory chip. Then bh5 will be forgotten.
They haven't taken any money from my credit card yet. What can it mean? The ram that I ordered was out of stock?
