I sold a set of ram "UTT" that in my dfi with bios 3-10p did at 3.2v "3.24 real" 240mhz@2-2-2-5. Now this guy was tring to get the sticks to work on a dfi nf3 with supposly vmods "done right he said i guess" and was tring 200mhz@2-2-2-5 with each stick thinking ok 1 stick can do 240mhz@3.2v it should do 200mhz@3v, but it wasn't happening. After a few days he was mad and thought I sold him 1 bad stick so he ships me them both back to test. Off they go into the dfi lowest timings possible at 3.24v at 240mhz and pass everything with fling colors..
So guys with UTT there might be a sweet spot bios/voltage/timings ya have to work with this ram to get it working on some setups, but just becasue it errors on one doesn't means its totaly defective. :)
PS:And before you say "well It shouldn't be like that" remember TCCD is just as bad, lol
What about OCZ PC-3200 VX Gold? What chips -- I like mine but they seem to require high VDIMM run tight timings.
they are UTT, and yes they are designed to run at high voltage
all UTT needs high voltage.
IMO anything less than 3.2v for VX is not good as it needs 3.2v+ to perfom to par :)
Thanks, maybe the 3200 Gold is better if you can't run high VDMIMM?
Sandybeach ,
We get a lot of that , in fact about 80-90% of returned memory does just fine on our testbeds
VX = Extreme voltage :-)
Thanks, made for the booster or DFi boards!?
Either :)...although they are said to be "A64 optimized" I don't know what exactly that means...Quote:

yeah, its going to work the best on an Athlon 64 platform. :)

Thats right :)Quote:

True, normally yes.Quote:

So I gues VX is not normal memory ;)
no uve got some special sticks then. All VX i have seen didnt produce any gains above 3.7ish v's. Most even started erroring out.
good point andy!Quote:

I just don't understand some people. Naturally, I would want the high freq, but I don't think screwing the company is a way to go about your overclocking.
any chance of buying the RMA ram that doesn't get 270 2-2-2-5 like people want?
hmm^^ promise the next ram i purchase with be OCZ ^^ next year when i'm 16 i'll get some kinda job and i'll see what i can do, it's be crucial for me since my first build lolz, and my 512 mb ballistix has done me well since it was a £51 off ebay :)
You might find that on eBay or "refurbs"
What voltage will the new OCZ BH-5's be warrantied up to?
I'd hope 4.0v :DQuote:

If they did that, I would sell my soul to OCZ :rotf:Quote:
