    Starting to Test 2x2gb =4GB Mushkin DDR2 kit. Happy so far

    Had a day or so to play with this, and spent most of my time playing on an Asus P5WDH 975x board. Was able to get 850mhz stable at 4-3-3-10 at 2.2v-2.25v selected in bios. Not going to bore you with screenies from that. Switched dimms over to Asus Crosshair 590SLI board and a 5200+, and they keep going up.
    I'm limiting my Vdimm to 2.25-2.3v max set in bios as I don't want to frag these. They do run quite cool though, w/out any cooling applied.

    Disclaimer**I recieved these to test from Mushkin and was told I had one good and one poor dimm from the bin profile setup for product due to be launched soon.

    I'll run whatever benches you guys want, just let me know. Vid card in this system is only an X850XT so nothing going to be stellar here, and the AMD cpu will limit good super pi times. I'm going to shift them over to a 680i board in the next few days and will be able to test on a 6600 Conroe at about 3.6-3.8ghz if that will help. Still only a 7800gt in that system though. I do have a 8800gtx in an Asus P5B deluxe with a 6400@3.9+ghz I could try, but it's running XP 32bit and feel most people will want to see 64 bit benches to confirm all memory is being properly addressed.

    couple screenies for you.
    Orthos has been 5+ hrs stable for me at which point I end up doing other things and cancel the test. I grabbed a 2+hr screenie, but didn't get a 5hr one as Vista likes to auto update and reboot(haven't turned it off yet).

    lemme know what you think.
    Pricing I'm not sure of. I'll defer that to Tom/Brian!
    thx
