I'm on step 5, but no tracking number yet.

Edit: Got a tracking number, mine should get here on Friday. It's coming from Rowland Warehouse, City of Industry, CA.

Bleh. Wish I could find another 5400UL kit to go with my current set :(

Interesting, the kit is no longer listed @ newegg. At least its not if you try to follow the posted link or the invoice link. Mine will be here about noon I'll post some results.

Got my sticks (4), I removed the heatspreader (don't worry I have a huge roll of thermal tape) and they have D9DQW if that means anything to anyone. I'll mess with them later this weekend so see what results I get.

hmm, I will be intrested to test my new sticks then ;)

Can you do 3-2-2 @ 400 mhz @ 2.65v?

So these sticks need more juice than 2.4v to perform? I tested mine on the P5W DH they wouldn't do DDR2-1000 4-4-4-8 @ 2.4v so I yanked them and planned to get rid of them. I've got kits that do DDR2-1000 4-4-4-8 @ 2.2v 21 hours memtest 1.65 stable. It seemed like these were a waste. Guess I didn't realize it the P5W's lack of volts was a problem.

They should do 500 mhz 4-3-2-x @ 2.4-2.5v... My first two sets are older ones...these new sets might be good or not... I have not tested mine.

If I boot 4-4-4-8 and set 4-3-2-8 with memset they pass 32mb Pi with 2.4v but I want to be able to set it in bios and boot that way not use memset. I'll try the evga 680i or AW9D-Max tomorrow.

That is a mobo issue, sounds like the board is setting subtimings too tight.

try booting @ like 300 mhz ram @ 4-3-2 and compare subtimings to 4-4-4.

Companies haven't given the right precaution on this.....They just keep sealing the PCBs but not what's outside of them, which - actually - it's the one that transmits.....;)

That's some insane work you did there! :toast:
Only I'm missing the extra soldered caps on the pcb :D

Testing in AW9D-Max E6400 8 X 401 4:5 divider for 502mhz 4-3-2-4 2.55v I'll be glad when a new memtest that shows more info is released:rolleyes:

Okay done testing on AW9D-Max. E6400 8 X 401 4:5 divider for 502mhz 4-3-2-4 2.55v. Is this considered average good results. Is there something more I should try for?

How about 5400UL instead?

If you missed out on the 8000UL, don't worry, the EGG has the about 30 Kits of the 5400UL for $129 Shipped. I bought two kits.

Actually, your post from about a week ago is very interesting..and perhaps more significant than you realized.

What version number do your 8000ULs have on the spreaders? Is it v1.1 or another?

I ask, because, if you look at just about any DDR2 "What chips does this ram use" type of listing, like this one for example,

http://ramlist.ath.cx/ddr2/

or this one

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...ad.php?t=94017

the Corsair 8000ULs are shown to uses the higher binned (DDR667) D9DQT chips, not the slower binned (DDR533) D9DQW like you posted above. That is certainly new info to me as I've always been under the impression that the 8000ULs could be counted on to have D9DQT chips. I guess that is no longer a given.

Perhaps you could post the info from your chips in the following thread where that first list is linked and maybe it will get updated. If you have pics, that would be a plus.
