I can forward the email i got from G.Skill last week:

Hi

We will have 8800CL5-4GB and 9232CL5-4GB available soon. But 1200 is impossible as we test here. Maximum we reach is about 1180

Thank you

that is most likely with voltages they consider safe enough 24/7 with crappy cooling to still give warranty though (atleast I assume that).

ordered a 4 GB 8800 Kit due to being bored at work today... I'll see how they do in a few days.

[jVIDIA]

The F2-8800CL5D-4GBPI ones are appearing here in Portugal with a minimum price of 124€.

Not bad.

[lefy]

I wish it was easy for me to get a kit like that
Not a money issue, but avaiability.
Well, also a money issue as shipping and taxes are stupid, memory becomes like 90% overpriced here.


Please post your findings when you get those sticks.

I hope to get one kit next monday Stay tunned

What kind of IC's do these things use?

[eva2000]

looks like powerchip ICs are getting better everyday

[Leeghoofd]

Nice stuff , Gskill catching up

[jVIDIA]

What kind of IC's do these things use?

That's also my question ..... what chips does it use to need so lower voltage

For comparision my Dominators 8500C5DF (1066MHZ) oficially needs 2.1v !

[Leeghoofd]

due to low voltages prolly 100% powerchips

[jVIDIA]

YEs ... but all actual 2x2GB kits use PowerChip IC's and the voltage was allways +/-2.1v !

It must be a revision of those chips or new ones or another IC brand

[GSKILL TECH]

here is my test on those new 8800 4GB







i am trying to fix over 400 FSB problem with P5Q, but i think that is Asus problem not ours

[Leeghoofd]

Nice GS mate Finally another set of 4gb that do 1200mhz... these will sell like hot pancakes ... I want some
Which bios were you on sir ? 0706 is the latest we have...

[GSKILL TECH]

the p5q-d bios i have is the oldest one made 5/7/08 i believe... to lazy to update the bios.

it has issue with CPU overclock too high, it will not boot up when i do 400x10 if i press restart.... gay

[Leeghoofd]

If it's the release bios most of got with the board which is either 0302 or 0506... 0604 got most rams running and 0704 unleashed all hell on FSB clocks...

When will these rams be available sir in Europe and any estimate on retal price ?

[GSKILL TECH]

then maybe i shouldn't be that lazy and got bios flashed lol

[Noob-ftw]

What Vdimm were you using on the ram? Thanks.

[GSKILL TECH]

2v for 1180 and 1200. but some power users said it can do 1.95v
