DDRs can stand up to at least 3V.  2.8V and 2.9V is now normal.  Don't even need fans btw......

nope...
unless u hv winbond chip...

why dun u try on micron, tccd n see...
check the temperature urself...

on such a hot enviroment, dun think the ram can survive.
even 2.8v is enuf to kill the ram.

tccd cannot tahan such a high voltage of 3.0v for too long...
even is yr 05.
try believe it...
it is different for tcc5 rev.f and tccd in terms of voltage.

most important is temperature...
e.g., under a cooled condition, 20c room temperature, mayb u can add to 2.9v...
coz the ram will hit for 45~46c under normal room temperature(33c).
absolute ram killing temperature for tccd

for the temperature, 2.7~2.75 is enuf for tccd.
dun tell tat ur tccd nd high voltage...
as what have been tested, voltage only helps on few attempts.
after tat, no matter what voltage u use, it won't draw more mhz for u.

well, as much as i can said is good luck to kcnyc.

the heatspreader of mine tccd reach that temperature...
and it is pretty dangerous, bcoz i'm using 2x 40mm sunon fan to blow on it...

and hv u all try to feed it for 3.2v?
well, i hv tried, at the past it can do 300, wif weird timing...
but, it can't do cl2.5 anymore @ 400mhz...

those is the past testing...
for those xms pros series i dun recommend to gave more voltage applied on it, especially anything more than 2.8v...
or not, rma sure will be...
there is some in LYN also hv those problems...

well, hv tried on other pair of tccd, this time is not extreme, 2.8v...
but, still it gave me those funky reponse...
keeping bsod when archieving 275 only...
now that pair in rma process...

and again, 2.8v also gaving cl2.5 can't boot, for those using OCZ EL pc3200(tccd)....
bigtoe said is the spd chips facing problems.
but dunno...
since may in XS also facing it...

dunno what is the cause, but tested wif some mobo of nf4, from dfi ultra-d, to gigabyte, and sli-expert...

back to topic for the xms pro series, tested on few pairs, not every pair of rev1.3 i hv tested work greats...
infact, 2 pairs can't boot in my system if running dual channel.

so, i use a p4 s478 to test, and i gave me different result.
using CPU-Z to check on those chip's info...
the model i get is some stick show CMX512-3200, some is CMX512-3200pro, and 1 stick gave me this info: CMX512-C2PRO.

guesting tat it is some unqualify chip for high speed eg, C25 and PC4000 series.

*
u can go to houseofhelp and ask the ramguy
he is the only one to know it
we are not the source, so nextime please be clear on how to get the source.
as a good learner u need to know how to visit ur hardware manufacturer website, fans site, tech support site, u need to know how to use google and wikipedia to enrich ur knowledge also.

this ram quite ok, i hit 250 mhz before, but trade it with my frens ddr600 already...

It depends on rev
different revision means different chips
not all IC is tccx
not all can do ddr600
