I ham currently running G.Skill 4400LE on my Tpox 5PDAJ Motherboard. this is intel based 865 chipset At 2.9Volts I can get to DDR 556 with timings of 3-3-3-7. It only hangs in for about an hour before it crashes at that. 3-4-4-8 does not do as well. Have you tried this GBFX mem on an intel chipset? I would give plenty for mem that would run 280fsb stable on my board. To date your 4400LE is the best mem I have ever used!

Now here is a shot of some more G.Skill on my Epox 4PDA2+Ver.2 which is also an 865 board onlt it has the 478 socket the 5PDAJ has the 775-T Let me know if this new mem has an edge over the LE or if I am getting all I'm going to get! Here is that shothttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/WeldZilla/ee.jpg

Looks like great RAM at a very good price. Do you expect that those results are typical of an average set?

Yes, these are not handpicked for reviews. I have two kits and both do 300Mhz 2.5-4-3-6 1T fully stable. :)
Offcourse Overclock is not guaranteed, but still good performers!
I love TCCD 5xx

what probability is there that FX go around ddr600@2.5-3(4)-3-7?
Is it very probable?

Now this is service folks! Thank you for the update, I am really excited to try these on my ABIT An8 b/c the board hates the Crucial Ballistix :slapass:

*IF* possible, can you try 1T with this memory on the AN8 from ABIT? If not I will be the test dummy :p:

G.S. Technician, have you (or anyone in here) run 4 sticks of 512mb TCCD rams before to see if it still benchmarks as with 2 sticks?

No where on the internet have I found anyone that has tested or posted an overclock or superPI test with 4 banks of memory. I am so close to buyin 4 sticks if the results are similar or at least decent.

Perhaps, can you test the theory G.S.Technician? I am very curious to see the results and scores of 4 banks of memory. (Or anyone else out there if you have the gear on hand).

Thanks for your time.

Thanks G.S Tech! Some other people have had 4 sticks of ram and the 2T timings ended up slowing the system quite a bit.

It would require a high-decent overclock to offset the performance. And 4 sticks won't post a high enough overclock.

I ordered a new system:

AMD Opteron 150 (socket 939)
2x1024 G.Skill (ZX 2-3-2-5)
DFI Ultra-D NF4 (lanparty...uh yeah...)
XFX-UDE7 (rev 2 copper) 7800 GT
