Talking about 2x2GB sticks that can clock.... Also alot cheaper.

Thanks for posting this, very interesting!

[tool_462]

Really looking forward to those Blade's on the Egg Not seeing them yet, someone correct me if I'm missing them.

I plan to see how 8GB will fare in the EP45-UD3P

Hey guys im having troubleee, ok MB is giga x48-DQ6, i wondering if i shld get Patriot Extreme Performance Viper Series DDR2 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-9600 Enhanced Latency DIMM Kit 5-5-5-12, x2 so will hav 4x1gb, or these G.skill 9200's that u guys have been testing, out, the reson for all this my dad is buying a home server so then my some of my rig comonets go into the surver and i geta upgrade my cpu atm is Q6700, looking at getting Q9650 and alos new ram between the previos that i linked, im not looking at huge oc's meaby a bit but i want a good increase from my 4g of team xtreem 1066mhz at 5-5-5-15s, so it will last a bit longer before i fully revamp to i7's and DDR3 which wil happen....eventully. ppl have ben having trouble getting the vipers 2 stock settings, but that was on maximus and ramage formulas, but im pretty sure my board is a newer chipset and a newer better board than the formulas, so im crossing my fingers and hoping they will both run on my board. i dnt kno HEAPS of stuff about RAM OCing or CPU ocing but i hav a general idea so no huge complex answers about skew timings and all that, i kno cas's and mhz and stuff thou....

Don't buy the Patriot Viper ... I have a kit 2x1GB DDR2 1200 and they are not D9 ... on taking the heatspreader off I found they are Elpida's. And settings of 5-5-5-12 are NVIDIA mobo profile's. On my Gigabyte EP45-UD3P I managed quite hard to get them at 1200MHZ and that with 5-5-5-15 latency and 2.3-2.32 vdimm. Also If u are going Q9650 way and don't need crossfire buy yourself a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P ... they are the best mobo's for Quad clocking and gonna save yourself from lot of problems comparing with u'r current mobo.

For ram just wait and buy when they are available in your region the new OCZ Blade Low Voltage Series 2x2GB DDR2 1066
Here are specs:

1066MHz DDR2
CL 5-5-5-18
Available in 4GB (2x2048MB)Dual Channel Optimized Kits
Unbuffered
1.80 Volts
1.85V EVP*
240 Pin DIMM
Pure Aluminum Heatsink
OCZ Lifetime Warranty

Part Numbers
4GB (2x2048MB) D/C Kit PN - OCZ2B1066LV4GK

And the link to a living review going now on them from an XtremeSystems Forums user:

From my point of view Q9650 + Gigabyte EP45-UD3P + 4 or 8GB OCZ Blade Low Voltage series is the way u should go. It's the best decision I think one could take.

That's my opinion. Hope it helps you

I was looking at an upgrade in ram from my 4g of team dark 1066 5-5-5-15's, and yes im keeping my mobo and yes im useing Xfire, im only lookign at replacing RAM and CPU, ok then, yeah also these vipers that im talkign about are the green heatsink ones not the black, also it seems its goign to be very hard 2 get my hands on them over here, the G.skill that you guys have been testing i found at a shop in my city, costs around $350(AUD). i think that most of the users here r US but hey, to put that in perspective the Q9650 is goning to cost $485(AUD), anyway still wondering if the g.skill hould be the way to go.

the ocz low voltage blades are commin soon i'd wait for those
if money no object get the gskills
i wouldnt touch them vipers i been hearin nothin but bad things about them

[xzulu]

here are some everest bandwidth test

Damn! 1325! That's a nice kit!!! SWEET!

[radaja]

yep,they are.i wish i still had them.but oh well.going to try the LV blades,hopefully

[xzulu]

Yeah, I'm also looking at those 1066 Blades, but still thinking twice on which to get.....

At least with the G.Skills there's a lot of headroom voltage wise...while the Blades need 1.9v (.05v higher than stock rating to run 1200).

[xzulu]

@radaja

Dude did you see this post?

OCZ are telling me they do even better on Intel boards...p45 6-6-6-24 1333 is on the cards they are saying so a good P35 should do OK also

WTF!!!

yep i saw this.thats why i want a kit
thanks for pointing it out though,appreciate it

if gskills dropped the price on them 9600 to ocz blade levels i'd rather have gskills for less heat=dependability

No problem

True! Same reason I want to get the G.Skills. But between the 2. I would place my bet on the G.Skills, cause it's true rated to run 1200

n they never got warm even over 1250+
just makes me wonder what will me the failure rate of the low voltage blades will be

[Hoss331]

There are 9600 LV blades also that are rated at 1200.

[-n7-]

Yeah i'll take the OCZ LV 1200 kits @ 1.8v (or lower, likely) over this G.Skill anyday.

Yup, they run cool-warm...but never hot. even at voltages above 2.1v, Sergio told me

i measured temps with lasergun never saw them go over 32c

I just ordered my kit!!
