my TCCD ddr600 memtest at 2.5v

play around with your Max async and read preamble.. try a few combination

TCCD ddr600 2-2-2-5???

ur SanDiego is a gem.. keep it.. the SanDiegos i've seen have problem with TCCD.. including mine..

TCCD that runs 2-2-2-5 at what speed?

which geil can do what?

if u're talking about the Geil One memory u've been deceived by their marketing tactics..

They used a x4 multiplier (which is a bug on Athlon64) and actual ram speed is not DDR600 2-2-2-5.. it is lower

mind sharing your BH-5 alpha timings?


1. babyelf - 8125 PTS - Gskill LE TCCD @ 7-3-3-2.5 @ @ 302 MHZ @ 1T @ 2.73 VDIMM

that was with my other processor.. not my Sandiego.. my Sandiego don't like TCCD.. that's why you don't see me testing my TCCD on my sandiego

3 possibilities
1. their engineers bodoh
2. their engineers didn't read A64 white paper
3. they know.. but mau tipu consumers

and btw..

there's 2 Geil One modules

one is BH-5 and one is TCCD..

their Geil One TCCD is actually not bad.. but a bit too pricey.. don't think i'll get one..

so 265 just 2-2-2-5 in bios? other timings on auto?

that superpi1mb is suicide shot.. nothing near stable.. maybe will get it higher soon.. just got this


Attached thumbnail(s)

it lacks the most important - drive strength

depends on modules...

generally weak

price range is about ~ 1400 for the ballistix.. tracers will cost much more..

u'll need the right motherboard with the right cpu to be able to reach those type of speeds.. in the 2GB arena hands down to the ballistix.. they get the tag [No.1] in the price war too lol..

anyway back on topic.. u pay for what you get.. that's how it is..

i'll be testing a kit of TCCD .. week 519.. i'll post some results on it soon.. brought my best TCCD memory controller CPU back with me

D43 and D5 won't do very well in 1GB modules.. hehe.. i checked..

certain chips gets very hot even at 2.8v

you should have a look at micron chips bloody hot at 2.8v
