MUSHKIN REDLINE XP4000 sneak peek...

[Duonger]

Im here most of the day just replied when i have something solid to say.
Charlie and John are reviewers that we sent modules too last week from my understanding. We sent it to several places. They are prob the 1st to post their results. We dont cherry pick. All reviewers and magazines get the same stuff from the same stock that goes out to the distribution, retail, etailers, resellers channel. Nothing is special. I know we have been working a long time to bin and test to get the rated specs.

I was planning on buying some LE's for my future A64 setup, but these sticks look pretty good. What do you guys think?

It depends on your choice of motherboard, cpu, multi's, tolerance for heat, noise and a host of other things... what are you trying to build??

Yeah, see you're good as gold, then... run MUSHKIN Redline at about 230-240 (using 3.3v rail and 3.2v actual Vdimm, for heat/reliability concerns) or run the 5v rail for about 250-260 @ 3.4-3.5v...
Bench even higher...
The ability to choose your own multi ensures that you're always in your "power band", as we used to see in "gearhead" talk...

That makes REDLINES look alot more attractive

You have any retailers in Canada that will carry these?

[bachus_anonym]

@Charlie or John

So, can anyone of you show how is this RAM doing in some SuperPi 32M calculation? How far can you push it and still be stable enough for that task?
We all know that 3D stability equals to pretty much 8-16M calculation in SuperPi (at least, that comes from my experience ).

I just hope that I will still be here when everyone that tests and shows off RAM/CPU on XS will provide not only "highest benchable" but also "highest rock-stable" clocks

Charlie, do you want to be the first, when you get your rig up n' running again ?

[Waus-mod]

what will the mem cost charlie?

MMM..I see!

I'm very glad that Muchkin is getting these modules out. I think they are a very good company.
These modules are going to sell like hot cakes!

Thanks C for the sneak peak!

P.S. you too JNav89GT for sharing your results

lol... i just can't be "without" my rig for as long as it takes to run 32M, hehehehe....

32M, what is that? Like a hour or so?? Probably the same setup I use to run D2OL...

C

easy fix = have more than one rig

32M doesn't take long to run i.e.



i imagine @270-290mhz 2-2-2-6 should be quicker

[charlie]

I'll run it tonight when the air cools a bit

[eva2000]

know what ya mean... here in Brissy it's the first time in 6 months i've seen my night time ambient temps drop below 28-32C! right now 23C here at 7am in morning - been ages since it's been this cool

[trans am]

I would post my Redline screenies but I don't want to steal Charlie and Jnav's thunder.

[TEDY]

how on earth you guys got them already ? trans_am

that's not fair : we want this ram now !!!!!

[largon]

Someone whispered in my ear: Mushkin Red Line doesn't use BH-UTT...

[g0dM@n]

Where can I get my hands on these babies?

The 32M takes, I believe, about 25min? I can do AIM and listen to music at the same time. Anyway, you build computers... get some CHEAP pIII and use that as a 2nd. Then go buy a KVM switch for 20 bucks. That's exactly what I do. I had a pIII 450mhz with 512 pc100, 15gig hdd... the thing did what it needed to do MINUS playing video games at quality. I used that thing as backup for so long, and it costed me NOTHING since I end up with extra old parts from friends/family that need me to build/fix their stuff.

Hell I could give you a pII for free if you wanted. You spend all this casheesh on good stuff... spare just a few bux for a backup baby!

[Zebbo]

This stuff is imho extreme. From my own experience I can say this stuff does great with low volts too (3,1-3,3V and of course it requires a bit of tweaking).

[g0dM@n]

Any clue how if it's better to sink this stuff? I have 2x60mm fans that blow over my ram (I had it there for my UTT before it stopped POSTing), so now it's over my TCCD. I'm gonna put the UTT back in eventually when I can tweak the board to accept it again, but if I were to get these should I sink them too? I wouldn't mind running 3.6v to it all day. I'd add a 3rd 60mm fan for cooling... just wondering if sinks will make it better or worse.

[cupra]

wow 288 at cas 1.5, that is rock, well done

[Major]

Ok....OK !!! enough of the screenies !!!!

Just tell us where to get some !

won't make it worse for sure, but I dunno if it's necesary. I run my 2x512 bh5 at 3.7v and they don't even get warm

[Playful_Buffalo]

^bare or with stock hs's on?


if they are the stock hs's then maybe they arent making good contact

There's plenty of thunder to go round... show us those badboys in action!
