2.5v on my best set of teams gets me 618c4 dual32m stable :D
Damn these prices are HOT.
Great find, as I am running a pair of Cellshock 800C4 along with some Crucial Values with D9GMH and I need to replace the crucials (1 stick gone bad after 2 years :( )
Actually I'm thinking about getting one D9GMH pair and two of these GKX pairs, the price is just so tempting.
Transcend AxeRam 1066+ and 1200+ are D9GMH and are pretty cheap.:up:
If you can find them. Since they're EOL, I wonder what Transcend will send me as a replacement...
*EDIT* It seems there are still some distributors that have B6-3 ICs available:

Why doesn't Corsair or someone buy them all up and give us one last run of D9 kits???
They are rather popular in my country. Prices range from 100 euros for 2x1Gb 1200+ kit, 70 euros for 1066+ kit and 65 for 800 kit.
Been doing some testing with the CellShock on my Striker Extreme, I just can't get 800 CAS3 and 1T to work. 2T seems fine, but I still need about 2.3V real (2.25 BIOS). I haven't messed with CAS4 much.
I believe you said nothing above 2.24v except hyperX at 2.3v.

Seems like nothing is safe in gigabyte boards, no matter the vdimm.:D
No one mentioned Geil Ultra Plus with D9GTC ic, any thoughts on that. I know they are not as good as D9GMH & D9GKX but seem pretty cheap.
They are if you can find them.;) Same thing for AxeRam with Micron, I think they are out of stock here in Serbia.
No more overseas RAM for me. When I thought my Team was dead, I was unenthused about shipping to Taiwan. Good thing it zombied back to life.:D Even if it won't last too much longer.:(
Yeah I can't say I'd be happy to RMA to Taiwan, and that's even if TeamGroup will answer my emails or approve the RMA. I have heard that recently they have been terrible customer service wise, and despite their good product, people are boycotting them due to this.
I have some Team, but I will be getting other more RMA'able ram if the need arises. The Team was just cheap and readily available to me at the time, but I won't be getting any more of it.
Just to let you know I just received my Transcend aXeRam 1200 replacement (RMA the D9GMH set which died) which turns out to be single sided, I took a pic to see if anyone knows the type of ICs. Needless to say these modules couldn't do anything. Good think I have my Teamgroup and G.Skill HZ, otherwise I would be screwed. BTW: There's a (7G) after the serial number it means anything.

@nicepun Too bad man your GMH died.
This just confirms that Transcend as well has stopped making D9 AxeRam and they too ship some not very usable chips.
It's same in my country even, a friend from other forum bot 2x1Gb 1066+ AxeRam and got some U(some number afterwards) marking, not D9 anymore.
It figures, like 90% of not-D9 modules today are Powerchip. They took Micron's place in numbers, to bad they don't overclock the same .
I didn't look at r00n's list as that may be outdated.
But he would know if he saw these.
I do know Miravo reviewed a 2x2 GB kit that he said were ProMos, & they had ICs with the exact same layout, hence why i believe these are ProMos.
They certainly aren't Micron or PSC though.
Ya they sure look like ProMos to me.
Only pair of ProMos I ever owned was no good though, 2x1GB OCZ Platinum XTC Rev. 2. Could do 900 CL4 which was ok, but nothing more than 950 CL5...
I had a ProMOS kit that was very good actually. 2x1Gb Corsair TWINX 6400C4, here are some results, all at 2.3V respectively:
964MHz 4-4-3-5

983MHz 5-5-4-8
http://www.abload.de/thumb/ram9805-5-4-8-2t2.3v7ac.jpg
1000MHz 5-5-5-10
http://www.abload.de/thumb/ram10005-5-5-10-2t2.8or.jpg
Not D9 obviously, but they were ok. And these were on an AMD cpu, my guess is few more MHz could be squeezed out of them on some Intel board and cpu.:up:
Funny, increasing voltage didn't do anything for mine...
Team did get back to me within a few days of emailing them. Since the D9s only cost $55, I don't know if its cost effective to RMA them.
I'm kinda lookin at 2x2 kits.
Anyone know if GSkill RMA back to Taiwan?
