looking at http://ramlist.ath.cx/ddr2/

if you go under super talent and look at part# T800UX2GC4, it still only lists d9 chips as the only ones used, but i did some reading where people thought they didn't use d9 chips anymore but no one actually had evidence of non d9 chips in the threads i read, unless i missed a thread that confirmed non d9.

I am asking this since they are only around $151 at ewiz, newegg has them for $161 after $15 mir.

so if chances are good to get d9, then i would think that would be a good deal.

you can add

CRUCIAL PC2-5300 667MHz 2gb kit. D9GMH, made in Singapure

here in slovenija i can get them for 120€ 2x1GB

you are talking about the 667 Cas 5 , here in USA it is not guaranteed GMH , you need to go and check the ICs your self before buying

Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 = 189$ after rebate!!!!

Crucial Ballistix 2GB (1GBx2) DDR2-800 PC2-6400 = 219$ no rebate

G.Skill HZ DDR2 800

^^^
Which of theses would you get and why? If not on the list I have up to $240 to spend on ram.

the best bang is the HZ but if you want slightly better OC get the Crucial PC8000

it says D9 because we couldn't identify the new ICs used anyway i will talk to r00n to fix that issue

Kemo6600, I would remove Patriot PDC22G8000+XBLK (D9GKX) from the list becaue Patriot stopped the production.

done

Yes, it was mentioned and confirmed in Super Talent T800UX2GC4 D9GMH (post #13).

They look very much like Nanya, but I'm not 100% sure. Guess I forgot to add them to the list just to make sure people are aware it's not always Micron. It's on the list now.

I think that rOOn does his best to keep that list updated and as accurate as possible but IC's change so quickly now it's very difficult to be accurate all the time.

Thanks, Roger_D25.

Got it, thanks. Until further notice I'll put Nanya with a questionmark behind it.
