..and also, did anyone identify any DDR2 that has great overclockability? Not just in term of speed, but the timing as well....

Which DDR2 to get for overclocking?

(coming)

where are the intel ddr2 guys?

kamon lah....

from what i read, it's cooler compare to DDR

but i might be wrong as well if it only applies to certain ddr2 chip only

Anyway.... regarding the Micron's D9 chips...

from what I understand, D9 is just a code for Micron's DDR2 chips. the superior one was the 'fat body' D9 chips. but how does the normal D9 chips overclock (which are not fat body)?

azrko, referral link is prohibited in signatures.

if a system is running with both FSB and DRAM in synchronous, the memory will run four times the speed of the FSB (actual speed).

ex:

Intel 200MHz FSB (800MHz quad pumped) : DDR2-800 = 1:1

oi oi ..... Team Xtreem DDR2-667 <---- value for money... good overclocking!!!

I still need to wait for my 7300gt for my new rig to be ready

While waiting for some TeamXtreem DDR2, I got a piece of 512MB relabelled Corsair DDR2-667 with square BGA chips.... possibly Elpida. Can't wait to test it.

what chips are they?

Some single channel DDR2 action....

Elpida based Corsair DDR2-667
441MHz CL5-4-4-10-1T @ 2.2V


tried CL4 but no go.....

BIOSTAR Tforce 550
1x512MB Corsair Value Select DDR2-667

Can also... but it's just single channel mode.

Gskill most likely using Elpida chips, or maybe Aeneon or any other 'value chips'.... only the 1GBHZ/2GBHZ are confirmed using Micron D9 chips (most probably D9GMH).

my corsair 512mb is just for temporary use

posting edited : added mobo

reviewer always get nice stuffs

for those who benchmark... even 1 point matters a lot

some more tweaking being done.... RAM is rocking at DDR900-2T @ 2.2V





AM2 loves high speed more than tight timing

no, especially nowadays fatbody is no more in production.

anyway... it's fatbody... not fatboy.

X2 will benefit DDR2 a lot. 10k in memory benchmark is so easy with X2 AM2.

probably DDR is a bottleneck for X2 S939.

some Elpida chip are quite good... like the 6E-E

but generally, Elpida can be considered moderately okay.

Micron square BGA are the current best. There are smaller rectangular type, but they don't do as well as the squares. 'Fatbody' is rectangular BGA, but the chip is big like DDR TSOP, but slightly wider.

They are Aeneon (a division of Infineon).

Please justify your point.

Kingston is long time ignored by overclockers for your information.

the new Kingston Value RAM DDR2-800 1GB have Micron on it. I think at Compuzone is RM600... expensive...lol! 512MB module will probably have different chips I guess.

forgot about the timing for that KVR

My TeamXtreem already arrive... will do testing tonight

look for Hynix C4... they do great as well.
