Its not 1333, 532x2=1064~1066. Have u try stability using memtest? Betweeen the cpu only run @ 2.4GHz..

I said, i will be getting some ram coolers this weekend(last saturday) and try to push it to 1333mhz

i dont use memtest, i use orthos, mainly because its tedious to boot.

the cpu is low speed because im trying to find the rams max speed

I dont know why but it seems the stability is not same with cpu/mem, 2.4GHz/1GHz and 3.5GHz/1GHz. The voltage tweaking is needed. At least this applies to my system.

damn...i bought mine for RM285 on May
eh,that time ram price is still exp..rite now,even crucial tenth anniversary is less than Rm500

btw, here some thread in vrzone for ddr800 w/ blue heatspreader..

i think this show the value of patriot ram

Is there a lot on market value patriot with no heatspreader? I thought all valu patriot comes with heatspreader which equipped with no good chipset.

meaning?

I forgot what chip lies on the heatspreder but oc to 1GHz need up to 2.2v at 5-6-6-18.

I bought my 1GB Patriot DDR2-800 with heat spreader @RM165 bout 2 weeks ago in BJ complex. So Far have pushed it past 900Mhz but the shop guy claims it can go up till 1Ghz . Haven't done much RAM benchmarking but my AM2 4000+ rig is stable@2800 right now. Good price for performance i can say bout this RAM.

chris, your ram is with blue heat spreader rite?

i did some experimenting with the heatspreader and and sinks for rams,

Heatspreader = no difference, well if u consider 4mhz ddr2 as difference then by all means

CM little chipset sinks = no difference.

so my conslusion is, heatspreaders are junk with the exception of extremely high priced aftermarket spreaders

further more, value rams w/o sinks are better due to the fact that you can choose the chipset and get a matching pair for batch code

this is from what i concluded and tested

Yup its with the blue heat spreader..

Try to push to 1GHz with 5-6-6-18 timing. It should be ok. Nowadays it seems that AMD X2 can reach easily to 3GHz.

it is hard to get a patriot ram..
only pczone selling it and the stock is not always available
does anyone know where to find it in kl area??
