Hey loc.o done playing with your sticks :) ?
SPi 2.8v, Valid 3v, normal air cooling.
wow :eek: I am impressed with all the adventurous folks pumping crazy amounts of voltage into the D9s. I actually have 4 x 1gb of the double sided (older) D9GMH PC2-8500 sticks that were able to do 5-5-5-15 1240mhz with 2.15v, but they aren't being used now. This thread has sparked my interest and I may do some suicide runs. Sad thing is, that I don't want to get single sided garbage from crucial in return.
Probably the best DDR2 ever made. Pay attention not to kill them, it would be a pity to kill such good ram, as, of course, they don't make them like they used to :)
those are my thoughts exactly. currently i am running Mushkin Redlines 2x2 so the ballistix are on the shelf.
funny thing is that I have some Team Xtreem Ram 4 x 1gb (D9GMH) that clock as high as the ballistix, but have better, read, write, and latency times. Too much ram laying around, need more systems. :)
question for the elite overclockers here....how many runs at xtreme voltages can you do before your ram starts to tell you that you need to make funeral arrangements?
It depends,no one can tell you for sure.
Old Team Xtreem's also clock very good ;)
I'm about to buy Ballistix 8500 from an ebayer, I've already asked if it is double or single sided ram, and he send me the part number saying it is a double sided kit. Is there a way to figure out if its really double sided just with the pn?
I can tell you that I've never run mine past 2.2v and I'll be going through my third RMA soon enough, :banana: crucial.
You should be able to tell if it is double/single sided with the PN, find it out
I received my single sided 8500's from my RMA, they worked at stock, overclocked a bit but nothing special especially with my IP35 pro's crappy dividers. I was busy for a couple days and came back and now my computer is completely unstable, from my testing one of the sticks are already dying, WTF. I'm done with crucial.
conroe? wolfdale? :stick: :D
That was OT. To make up for it, I finally broke 11 sec in Pi 1M!! :rocker:

Few days ago I made my brother who lives in the USA buy me 2 pair of these :

16FD5 should be great , right ?! :p:
I paid 94$ for the 4x1GB sticks , is that good ?
I had a set of Tracers die, really fast for 9 months. They died shortly after lowering voltage a notch. Funny thing was the light show was still working, even reacting to Alt+Ctrl+Del during post.
Awesome numbers :up:
This is the best that I can do :(
Anyone know where I can get some dual sideds? Or sticks that can do nearly as well? Something like 1200 @ 2.1v or 1200c4 @ 2.4v or so?
i have a set of patriot DDR2 800 at 1200 MHz @ 5-5-5-15
