MUSHKIN PC4000 2gB SMOOKKIINNNNN!!

[ElDuderino]

I just got my xp4000 2x512 back from RMA and Mushkin sent me the wrong RAM...it should show up as being pc4000 correct? I am gonna see if they won't let me pay the difference and get this new stuff. This will be the third time having to send back this RAM.

[Duonger]

what parts did we ship you? can u tell me the part number on the modules?

I was supposed to receive 2x512mb xp4000 I got the pc3200 version.

Not without popping the RAM out...but according to CPU-Z it is 991439. here is a screen shot showing the pc3200 and the part number.



my RMA # was 71840.

Thanks Duonger

[Vapor]

That is the XP4000....SPD is at PC3200 though, that's all (mine is too).

Your part number matches that of the XP4000.

[Duonger]

991439 512MB XP4000 2-2-2@3.3-3.4v Redline

it is xp4000. it will prob show up as ddr400 in ur machine. play with the timings and see how it performs. u can call our tech guys for assistance also.

Damn, my memory(not the Mushkin product) must be failing me. I coulda swore the XP4000 was pc4000. Also I coulda swore that CPU-Z listed my first set of Redline at 2-2-2-6? CPU-Z shows this RAM as 2-3-2-6 under it's SPD timings table.

But hey, I could be wrong and prolly am.

EDIT: So far the highest 8hour memtest stable I could get with no divider was 263htt. I am gonna keep tweaking this sli-dr. Anyone know of a good thread where this mobo and ram are tweaked?

[Vapor]

Duonger will have more specifics than I will, but you're memory probably isn't failing

They have low-balled the SPD since so that it would first-time boot at nominal voltages easier, IIRC.

Good results so far--but remember that the end goal is Windows stability, you might want to try some Windows memtest and OCing through windows.

[ElDuderino]

I got some great scores on 3Dmark05 and PCmark05 with this RAM. That was at htt 255 so i should be able to beat them now.



It can do 32m superpi, occt, but I am having a tough time getting Prime stable. Time for more tweaking I suppose.

Back on the topic at hand this 2gb kit of Redline is mighty impressive.

Sorry for the thread hijack.

I'm running this kit in my D2OL bomber @ 270, 1:1... 3-3-2-8

it is PC4000, it's just spd is prgrammed at 3200
Also after first batches had cold boot issues, spd was programeed at 2-3-2-6 to help with the dfi cold boot problem. After you setup your voltages etc.... then you may over-ride it in bios to 2 for trcd.

[Duonger]

Thanks J.

[ElDuderino]

Thanks for clarifying all that. I knew this stuff looked different in CPU-Z...but actually it might be a better performer than my first set.

Good Luck and keep us posted on how they do. We need more reports from retail purchase.

I ordered on a Thursday night and when nothing was updated on my order by Monday morning I called them. Evidently there was some kind of prob and my order fell through the cracks but they more than made it up to me and even called me back at the exact time they said they would. I was very impressed with Mushkin customer service.

I ordered my ram shortly after Pickles did, got it that next Tuesday. Not bad at all. Fortunately there was no problems with Fedex.

Extremely happy with Mushkin. Glad I didn't wait for the OCZ EB ram.

Hopefully this isn't what happened to me, but i did the same thing.

What time did you order thursday night?

[geto]

Mine was late in the day. Probably around 8pm. I bet you'll get it today or tomorrow.

Mine sat at Fedex for about a day before they shipped it.

Patience my son, patience.

[bigjohns97]

Well it's the end of monday and it still hasn't shipped. Card was charged on friday @ 7:30 am and they haven't even shipped it yet.
