Ooopss..
You've guessed it out.

You are one crazy ram overclocker u know that?
How i wish i had the braveness like you to push voltage that high on my rams.

Put your rams on the stove, light it up, there, you'll get yourself a burnt ram.

Nope, you'll get Team Xtreem PC2 10400 DDR2 1300MHz 2GB Kit with Micron D9GKX chipsets. ROFLMAO

Try it on your Team Valueram.
Remember to burn it at 250Degrees, for 15minutes.

Ngiahahaha

Overclocking 2 sticks of ram is always easier than overclocking four sticks.

I didn't say that.
I said, overclocking with 4 slots is harder than overclocking with 2 slots.

Overclocking using two piece of rams is always better and it'll perform better.

Sorry, misunderstanding.

This is what happens if you don't read properly.

I'm just joking la, don't take it seriously liao.

My ballistix PC2-5300 DDR2 667MHz is running at 1000MHz @ 5-5-5-12 @ 2.1Volts.

Any other info that u need?

Yes, the team valueram can reach the same speed, but can it match the performance Micron D9GMH / Micron D9GKX?

The answer is no.
This is because the ProMOS chipset uses different binning compared to Micron D9GMH / Micron D9GKX.

Do take note of that.

Micron D9GMH / Micron D9GKX needs 2.2Volts to run at 1000MHz @ CL4

That's because Micron D9GKX has been stopped from production.
Those rams that uses GKX are only leftovers.

There is high performance rams that uses GKX, but not much can be found.
You can find it on some valuerams, but do note that valuerams doesn't work the way High performance rams work.

As most valuerams rams uses 4 layers of PCB which can't stand high voltages.
Whilst high performance rams uses 6 layers of PCB that is either Brainpower PCB or Levin PCB.

There is also Brainpower PCB that is on 8 layers, but is in a very rare occasion.

These 6 & 8 layers of PCB tends to use lower voltage & produces less heat than those 4 layers of PCB that is on valuerams.

Your high performance rams have an ability to withstand high voltages, thus, the lifetime of the rams stands more longer than those rams that uses 4 layers of PCB.

Because there is a website that can tell the chipset that some rams uses and what type of PCB it uses.
But this website doesn't concentrate on Corsair ram so much, because corsair ram has too many revisions.
So, it doesn't say what type of PCB does an XMS uses.

Count? You can't count the PCB, unless you have the eye of a microscope.
The easiest way to know either it's using brainpower PCB or not is easy, there should be some sort of serial number that can explain either its a brainpower 6 layers, or brainpower 8 layers.

Right now, from what i see, only Team Valueram & Twinmos Valuerams uses Brainpower 6 layers PCB. Those are the only two valuerams that uses Brainpower PCB 6 layers.

All other valuerams uses nothing but crap @ chapalang 4 PCB layers.

sup3rfly, those two list are very unorganized and very hard to read.
Plus, for the Corsair area, it doesn't state all revision of XMS rams.

Wrong.
Only some D9G are good.
Not all micron chips that has the D9G sequence is good liao.

The top three Micron D9G are:
1st Place = Micron D9GKX [Rare]
2nd Place = Micron D9GMH
3rd Place = Micron D9GCT [Very Rare]

D9GQG is not a good overclocker liao.

Not really.
Some high performance rams is also using Micron D9GMH.

IMO, Micron D9GKX & Micron D9GMH performances doesn't vary by far.
I'll wait for uncle almostthere to explain about this.

I read it in some articles, however, i don't remember which website is that.

Now that's weird.
I've used the same ram with you before i've upgraded my ram to Ballistix PC6400 DDR2 800MHz 2GB Kit.
Before this, i've used the Ballistix PC5300 DDR2 667MHz 2GB Kit overclocked to 800MHz @ 4-4-4-12 @ 2T @ 1.95Volts, Memtest86 stable & Orthos stable 12 Hours.

I don't think it's your processor.
I think it's more to your motherboard liao.

Nope, it's not because of the D9 chipset.
It's because of the crucial ram themselves.

Crucial uses Levin PCB that is known for it's "hotness"

All Crucial Ballistix & Crucial Ballistix Tracer uses Levin PCB.
