Buyers Beware! New geil Ultra-X might NOT be TCCD
Ive recently purchased my geil ultra x 2x512. serial number sn5000073.
They overclock very poorly on my k8n neo 2 motherboard and 3200 winnie.
Reboots past 230fsb 2.5-4-4-7 1T (it also fails at 2T) 2.85v ( overvolts to 2.9 ).
Cas 3 is a no boot even on stock fsb and 2.55-2.85 volts.
I am sure that my motherboard and processor were not the problems, as I can run my ocz pc4200 @ 260 (4xhtt) and 9x multi stock vcore on my winnie memtest and prime stable overnight.
I have not proven that my batch of memory, the new ones are winbond, but judging from mwongs post I think they are, I still gotta get my hands on either a dfi mobo or a ddr booster.

Our UltraX Series uses either Samsung TCCD or Winbond BH5 chips.
