No, that was nothing more but a rumour like so many other false ones.
And yes, 1.5 vs 1.8V is a huge issue. Just because we OC doesnt mean the 99% of the rest does. And it doesnt mean the rest of the memory (Specially early memory) can. Yes some run without issue, but some run with issue. Overvolting is a very bad thing, specially the lower process you go.
So dont tell me a industry standard should rely on it to be able to overvolt.
Owee Memory modules FOR EXPERTS... $pulls $700 from his wallet*
Yes, I can just see Dell factory workers busy setting voltage each time.
Aswell as all memory makers pulling warranty on all value memory!
Seriously...OC is like flipping a coin. And a 20%+ overvoltage is so bad no OEM would want to deal with it on the factory floor. Unless its for some XPS extreme system.

If we have the chicken and the egg, cook me an omelet with fried chicken - for short, show me the benches with the comparison between old boards with DDR2 and this DDR2/DDR3 mutant board with DDR3 ram on, I'm really curios: THOSE IT WORTH IT? - back them use to think it would.
for that price you have the fastest DDR2 memory out there...I hope it will drop pretty soon...would be weird,the most expensive thing in your case is memory,instead of CPU or GPU...

from verndewd's link...look at that chunky nb sink.
too expensive now.. one good 2GB DDR2 set only 150-200$.
...well obviously...no way will most people be getting ddr3...i'll be keeping my ddr2 for as long as possible.
whoever has a ddr3 board atm already has or will have ddr3 memory very soon without having to pay for it... so whats the point? :P
just marketing...
damn it i can source the RAM but not mobo :(
dang, this stuff is getting out of hand. North Bridges don't have to be THAT cool. I mean, what's the thermal envelope of say... 680i?

One can only hope you don't see that on LSD because they would need to call 911 for the paramedics to sew you side back up from laughing to hard.
So you can buy DDR3 but not DDR3 board, and buy DX10 cards but no DX10 games. Next will be "X" uberprocessor without i386 architecture so no Windows at all? Some would be pleased :D
andre has DDR3, but hes under NDA so he cant really run it on his Asus P35 board
