man this is really messed up. maybe i should just ask colin to buy his sticks. :p: so far mushkin is the only stuff we have seen put up 250 2-2-2.
man this makes my head hurt. looks bad though when ocz and others use tccd from different batchs on the same stick. the stick will always be limited by the slowest IC on it.
Colin also said he had Geil that ran high FSB with tight timings alsol
i got some yesterday also and have similar results as trans am. stuff really sucks.Quote:

lol some nuts people on ebay :D
Hey guys i havent been here since i sold the prommy but i have been following this thread. Now im not 100% sure but most of the OCZ sticks just have the logo stamped on the heat spreaders? I ordered some OCZ 3200 R2 plat from newegg on monday and got them today. They have the OCZ badge on them like their website shows. Does this mean i have the good stuff? Thank in advance!

try to run it at 2-2-2-6 1t @ 240mhz. if memtest86 pasees test 5 with 0 errors, you have the good stuff.
At how many volts though? Im limited to 2.85 since i have no booster. Im on a neo2 and 3200 90nm setup (air cooled with xp-90 right now). So far its doing stock timings at 200mhz at 2.5v, something my corsair XL couldnt do.
2.85 is not enough for 2-2-2-x @ 240 hehe
Yea i didnt think so, i guess a booster is next on my list :)
Don't worry about doing those tight timings yet. Try something like 2.5-3-3-7 1T @ 280mhz+ and use your 2.8vdimm.Quote:

^thats what ive heard.
hehe...me too....Quote:

man, :banana::banana::banana::banana:, I MUST HAVE DDR 600 2-2-2-5-1T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've just tried ocz booster to my Geil Ultra X tccd, nothing, they does the same at 2'7V than 3'5V, at least with 2'5-3-3 timings.
Ok, I just received my gskill pc4400 1GBle today. Since my mobo hasn't arrived yet, I was wondering if I have good sticks or if they need to be RMA'ed.
Date is 437 and the code is K4H560838F. I ordered from
As for the small markings on the bottom of the memory chips, all 16 have the exact same markings: H56 8 BMG099PX.
Trans am, ryan, any idea? Thanks
Mine does 285mhz 2.5-3-3-7 individually. or 281 2.5-3-3-7 in dual channel. 2.6v. Haven't bothered higher voltage, etc as I am waiting on another new CPU (woot, I think I am jumping in FX stuff finally)
So I am I right in thinking, after reading the whole of this thread, that there is still no certainty to when Samsung made this minor die revision, and how we can tell by the heatspreaders or some other method?
That's a bit annoying. I'd like to get some also but if I can't be sure I think that would put me off for a while. I would really like to get the OCZ stuff. Would you rate the 3200 Plat.Rev2 above the OCZ 3700EB (what I currently have), for reaching high FSB (I have seen 270-300 floating about), and high bandwidth?
Also, as asked above, how do all mount your fans above your RAM?
Cheers (Ooooh look, my first post :))
I've just ordered an FX55, wanna see if I get the same FSB at 1:1 than with my winchie (to see if every chip gets a diferent fsb).
I use zip-ties to hold the fan above the ram if its in a tower. If its just on a bench I just set the fan on top.
Welcome to XS btw, Brum Man.

Guess it would be best to wait until there is some certainty as whether
the new TCCD chips are truely better.
I just superglued a 80mm fan on the side of PSU.
