Wao this is crazy,better than Corsair Dominator in timing.  thumbup.gif You tested with Super PI ?
*
are u mad in comparing this ram with corsair??

y ppl forget
micron created this ic.
guess the name of micron retail company.

crucial.

nah dude super pi in ram timings difference is very little.

and this is a crucial ballistix tracer PC2-8000 1000mhz 2.2 CL5

with an evga mobo.
evga mobo u dont have to overclock rams to get 1000mhz.
the mobo supports up to 1200mhz native.

again this ram is stable for cl4 timings at 1000mhz stock vdimm of 2.2

i asked my couz ( the one who works with micron )
he said he read some report the reason they understate their rams is because they dont primarily cater to enthusiast and reduces probability and cost of rma.

amazing lol. biggrin.gif

how long it lasted in orthos?

test it with playing a few rounds of dota... see if it's stable enough..
*
hmm it was going for 30 minutes roughly.

then i reboot my comp to increase the multiplier.

didnt boot after that.

as i said it was fun while it lasted.

is 2.3v/2.4v safe for long term?

eg: if i run mine 2.3v @ 1ghz 4-4-4-10.
*
hahah
this is at stock vdimm
only 2.2

thats y special

24/7 using 1000mhz 4-4-4-12 2.2vdimm.
2.3 vdimm either 1200mhz cl5 or 800 cl3 1t

Did you tried DDR1400?Timing??
*
that means revolting
no way

also take note.
most mobo cant go above 1300mhz


Added on March 15, 2007, 10:40 pmstable at max 1084mhz 4-4-4-12 2t 2.2vdimm

the problem at running at this speed
i cant sync it with the fsb.
if unlink its ok.

p.s. this option only on 680/650 mobo. i think

in sync benching is much faster. real time windows load faster. aquamark in sync is faster.
1:1 with fsb.

RAM Size : 2048 MB
RAM Freq : 332.5 MHz
RAM Type : DDR2-SDRAM Dual Channel
RAM Ratio : 1:2
RAM Timings : 5-5-5-15
My ram is 1GB 667MHZ X 2...But why it shows the frequency is 332.5???
*
ish.
its ddr 2.
so times 2 larr.

y is mine showing 500?
times 2 = 1000mhz.

crucial now changing new pcd that make the chip run well on low voltage..even my ballistix tracer run 400Mhz with 4-4-4-9 at 1.86v only (suppose to be 2.2v)...

diff u can see at the edge of the old pcb n the new one is it got word "levin"

advised to run this with a external fan cooling
timing so far pretty stable tested with this
800mhz cl3 2.3v
1000 cl4 2.2v ...set ure own sub timings
1200 cl5 2.3v

best bandwidth on the evga mobo was at 950mhz 4-3-4-10 2.25v
