Get retarted in here - UTT is everywhere

[eva2000]

probably the ram or motherboard holding you back mate

if this is UTT CH-5 then you'd need more vdimm

Official answer from Geil :

For our production, we sometime use higher quality IC for Value. Value by nature is a lower end product. However, in order to compete with Corsair, we beef up the Value a little bit sometime.

You might have BH-5 value and you can try 2-2-2-5 2.85v to verify it.

EDIT : The PCB for the new Geil Values is Brain Power PCB

wonder if i should try some. I can get 2x512 for $131 canadian

It's a sweet price for a gig of RAM, but does anyone know if is there a way to verify if it's UTT other than buying a set and testing them?

EDIT: is this the stuff?

I tried 3.6V.
I also tried some of your titimgs for the DFI NF4 (they increase mem bandwidth! by a fair bit!) but they make the ram unstable at even 240.

I also tried neach stick on it's own. no go. Both sticks oc almost identical.

[ojoj]

just sum results with geil value vdimm @ 3.7v

That's nice, what do you think about this?

3.4v Twinmos UTT.

[Nedjo]

I think that thios is what you need to look for , when you're searching for GeIL value BH5:

1GB (2x512MB) PC3200 400MHz Value DC 2.5 6-3-3 2T 5ns 2.55-2.65
6 Layer PCB, Blue Aluminum Heat Spreader,
Dual Channel SPD GE1GB3200BHDC

[babyelf]

anyone can confirm this on their modules?

[scorp]

Geil just changed the ratings ) ... The SPD timings for my modules are 2.5-4-4-8 and the voltages that were covered by the warranty are 2.55v-2.95v.

[Jamo]

wow, if it turns out that GE1GB3200BHDC is the UTT then theres a store in UK selling 2x512mb for £65! thats a steal if anyone can confirm the model number i'm getting some right away! other UTT is at least £30 more expensive in this country

[Bennah]

Jamo is where is that at ? Very intrested

How can I tell if the IC's are UTT BH or UTT CH? Isnt one thinner than the other? Thickness of the IC itself ?

[Bennah]

Just had a look at my twinmos old skool bh-5 (thanks John ) twinmos sp utt and mushkin 3500 LII bh-5 and all have the silver 'strips' along the top of the IC's. Trade mark from Winbond? I havnt got any normal sticks to have a look at it to see if its on all IC's are not.

Geil Ultra-X now ships UTT BH instead of TCCD ive heard from a few people who have recieved recent kits.

[Jamo]

tis here: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatal...aMY_2d005_2dGL

[Bennah]

Ah overclockers, should fo checked there

Well, who wants to take the plunge on them? I think you If I had some cash spare I would be right now I havnt

Will be a definate steal if they are UTT

[Jamo]

in the same boat pal, roll on pay day!!!

[Bennah]

Yea, I'l have some spare cash to throw at some mem but thats Friday and overclockers changed thier deals of the week on friday morning right ?

[ojoj]

1GB (2x512MB) PC3200 400MHz Value DC 2.5 6-3-3 2T 5ns 2.55-2.65
6 Layer PCB, Blue Aluminum Heat Spreader,
Dual Channel SPD GE1GB3200BHDC

the old 1's look like this 2, most important is the pn number, make sure there sn500's and have the silver strips on the chips.

can somebody please confirm this Geil ram here: http://www.anitec.ca/?mode=product_d...=2629&pid=3253

wondering if these are using UTT?

thanks.

[Korpse]

even if they change there deal this is still UBER cheap - £75 for 1GB of UTT? NICE!!!

They don't have the BH in it, so i'm assuming it's not BH-5. Check with them for the part number.

[scorp]

My kit has UTTs and it does not have BH in their name

[notoriousformula]

Are you sure? How do you know its UTT?

thx

[scorp]

From how the chips look and especially from how they act. On my MB I couldn't use the DDR Booster, but on a P4C800E and with 3.2v, it got to 240 MHz 2-2-2-5. Couldn't go any further as that was the limitation of the P4, but I guess that with more volts it would have done better.

[gigi77]

Geil confirm use Chip Winbond on new Value series

great choice
