    why is it a sticky still..maybe the BH-5's is a legendary ram that all ram nowdays is being compared to. Basically it is a measureing stick for the new ram to be compared with. Granted it is most likely you won't find BH-5's anymore since everyone who has them won't part with it unless they are dissatified or ignorant about the quality of the ram itself.

    bh-5 isnt very good nomore. not when the new TCCD can post almost the same results but also hit like over 300fsb when you loosen the timmings. and bh-5 is all used crap that people have abused. i was glad to get rid of mine just because of warranty issues and that tccd imo is better.

    i dunno i think i read somewhere that someone got his BH-5 chips rma'd with TCCD....

    not that i wouldnt mind TCCD, but im on an NF2 platform, where BH-5 is a much better choice..well, im not 100% sure they are dead yet, still need to try them in my intel rig when i get my IC7 back from newegg...

    Hey guys cool down - here is the answer: I'd RMA both - CORSAIR and MUSHKIN because I had a couple of kits and sometimes a bad module.

    CORSAIR RMA's with TCCD (XL) - think they do not have any single BH-5 anymore but MUSHKIN did it with new BH-5, have to say that this was half a year ago but in my opinion they have been more clever and kept some BH-5 in stock for RMA.
