    This is a good deal for those people who want BH5. Me? I'm buying Corsair BH5 used. I have 4 gigs of it. Why? Dunno.

    If its just for gaming and everyday usage its a big waste of money...

    Latency gives next to 0 performance in games...

    Unless you are playing with a 6800U or X800XT in 800x600 with no detail or sumthin...

    Edit: otherwise i would go for it... I had 2x256 of these and they did 239Mhz 2-2-2-5@2.8v...

    But sadly i needed to have 1GB... So i just sold em and got 2x512 modules of PC4000 since i saw a couple reviews where every single 1 stated that timings dont add performance in games...
    P4 3.0C 800@3.64 242FSB 1.625Vcore on Ic7 max3(Watercooled)
    Corsair 2x512@DDR484Mhz PC4000( 3-4-4-8 )2.8V

    Indeed I was wrong. I remember reading a post when I was looking for these on ebay (when I couldnt find em anywhere else) that said this guy did it at like 3.2 :|. But looking now I guess it was a sales pitch *shrugs*

    Well the final price for 2x 256 mb sticks came to about $175 :P (with the 10% discount) but it doesn't matter since I live in sweden, it is cheap (about $115 in american dollars if it was 5 years ago)

    or maybe they were saving sticks for warranty replacment so they could replace 222 sticks with 222 sticks, but now they dont need them because TCCD will do just as well for RMA purposes...

    who knows, im definetly really close to dropping down some cash...
    Interesting

    I did a RMA 3 weeks ago with my Level II BH-5. They said they couldn't replace it, all they had was TCCD. They sent me the TCCD, it sucks on my MSI neo2 setup.

    I'm gunna have to check back with them and see what's up with this BH-5 deal.

    Maybe they took all the bad RMAed sticks and repaired them and threw them up for sale

    Could it be possible that OCZ VX uses the same chips?

    IMHO only the Bh5-Chips can be given up to 3.6V

    But I am waiting for the first reviews. I got my Geil UltraX just 3 weeks ago.

    no hardware freak, for 2 reasons

    1 - the ocz sticks need 3.2 volts just for 2225 at DDR400, somethine BH-5 does with 2.5volts

    2 - ocz said that the new IC's were not of limited availability, BH-5 is all but extinct

    opp, that sounds pretty likely, or maybe they took all of the good IC's off of the RMA'd sticks, because odds are one bad IC can make a whole stick bad, so no sense in throwing away the whole stick right?

    Hes mistaken , 340-370 would be nice but I think he means 240-270

    Sooner or later someone will come up with newer, faster and better memory chip. Then bh5 will be forgotten.

    They haven't taken any money from my credit card yet. What can it mean? The ram that I ordered was out of stock?
