looks like also BH-5 will have a revival!!!

JOlle test them !!!

[J0lle]

I will, but i have to burn them in first

[enzoR]

yea so push 3.2v and see how high they memtest
do that for 1h and then 3.3v and so on...

Have to wait a couple of days until i get the booster but after that im rolling, my friend with the same chips got a little over 240 with 3.2V without a little burn-in. The word on the street from a big manufacturer of high quality overclocking-memory said it could take weeks to burn-in these "new" bh-5's properly.. so we will have to see

Anywhere those can be ordered from in north america? ETA?

start memtesting them with the max v's ur mobo can give and run memtest #8. it concentrates on each chip longer than test 5 makeing it better for burnin.

I've got my new GEIL Ultra X PC-3200 and i was wondering what type of chips is on it because i read is with TCCD but this was the answer of GEIL engineer on GEIL forums:
"GEIL Ultra-X module used to equip with Samsung TCCD. It was able to overclock with low voltage. People love Samsung TCCD.
Unfortunately, Samsung has stopped making TCCD this February. Therefore, we switch IC from Samsung TCCD to Winbond BH-5.
Winbond BH5 needs higher voltage to raise it's clock speed or overclock; standard clock speed require 2.5 to 2.65v, OC to 260 or 270 require atleast 2.85+.
However, there are only few motherboards support 2.85v; most of them are 2.8v top. "

only way to find out is oc them 2-2-2-5/6 to say 225+ mhz at say 2.9-3.0v vdimm if they pass memtest and windows stability most likely BH-5 dies
