Xtreme Twinmos Memory!

[enzoR]

check the previous hipro5's posts..!

hmm ok he got 260... so then these are not VX

[bias_hjorth]

not yet ... i hope ill have more than 10 sticks and a maximizer at the end of the week to test

btw my PSU (stock not modded) freaked out! 12V rail was 13.7V 5Vrail 5.7V. (who needs psu volt mods!!! )and when the booster was showing 3.5V actual voltage was 4.7 (yep i said four point seven) for more than an hour!!! ... RAM-CPU-BOARD remained undamanged !

I´ll be def. looking forward to your test. :thumbsup:
About your motherboard are you sure its wasnt your multimeter that went crazy

[TEDY]

really want these 2*512...can anyone point me where to get them..neweggs?

[esdee]

are you sure its wasnt you multim that went crazy

lol, yes im pretty much sure...those mems are so high-Volt-proof and cool!

Ok now new psu is on (tagan 480-u01 480W) so back to business !

Simple - Something that beats EB´s and BH5 - 1gb btw.

Are you kidding?
my bh6 max is 236. my mushkin blk level II bh5 max was 237mhz at 2-2-2 1t, so this already beats it. And how high can you get a gig of bh5 and eb up to? at 2-2-2 timings? My VX gig does 264 2-2-2 stable. You seem to have very high expectations. Almost unrealistic.

Better...maybe? Or at least if you run Intel.

OCZ VX has been optimized for A64 by their own statements. It could very well be the same chips, just simply a difference in implementation that allows these to run better on an Intel rig than the VX runs on Intel.

Guys I couldn't read from the beggining of the topic. But there is an important info about the twinmos memories which contain winbond chips.

As you should see there is a big sticker on the right side of the memory. On this sticker there is a p/n code. If this code ends with "AA4T" then it should be winbond bh-5 or bh-6. This info is only valid for DDR400 Twinmos memories.

I have tried about 4 sticks of 512mb twinmos ddr400 which is AA4T. But it isn't marked as 50D on the chips, they are marked as 60D. Just above this 60D "-50" is marked as well.

These chips that I have tried does about 270Fsb 2-2-2-6 1T with 3.7vdimm on A64 754 rig.

I also tried 1 stick of 256mb Twinmos ddr400 again AA4T. This memory's chips were as well 60D marked. And it did round about the same.

I almost forgot, the memories which I saw were all M.tec marked

If I remember anything else I'll write back

nobody listening to me

[hipro5]

5:4? ive never heard of a mobo that can run 5:4 past 300fsb. not even hipro's ic7

EPOX 4PCA3+..............



EDIT : Sorry my bad............

I wasnt talking about the Bh5 running 1gb. I was talking about seeing memory that´ll run 1gb at higher numbers than 270mhz (I believe I saw bh5 doing so on a Intel rig "1gb"), Which is max we have seen from any VX, twinmos so far. I liked the EB´s - They were kicking everything for a short period of time until they suddenly got discontinued.
Call my demands unrealistic sure, but thats just me I guess.

Mine are just like these Double-sided

IC7..............

is that your ic7's max in 5:4? wtf y does it say epox lol!

I think the point is we have ram that is performing better or equal to ram that costs over $300. This stuff costs half.

Yes this was with the EPOX one...........I'm trying to find the screenie with the IC7 one..........I think it was 312MHz+.........

EDIT : It is on my benching rig...........Tommorow........

[bias_hjorth]

Yes and I didnt state that I didnt like that - But I was hopeing and looking for more in terms of mhz at least. Well especially from the VX sticks at.
Sure I´ll be trying these anytime soon but from what i´ve seen its nothing really impressive so far. But I sure hope it changes.

the only mod i'm missing from my ic7-g is the electrolytic cap mod for nothbridge. i dont have a cap for it

how much did it help? i have my vagp at 2.05v then it hits ovp
what is a save vnorthbridge? 1.75v?

[Reefa_Madness]

Good info about the product code.

Hipro5's sticks (see CPU-Z screenshot) and trans am's sticks both have the "AA" in the product codes.

Trans am's sticks are not M.tec, but labeled TwinMOS.

[enzoR]

it has to be AA4T

1.9Vchip max........

Let's leave the off topic.........

[Reefa_Madness]

They are both AA4T, I just took a short cut in my response and probably should not have because it might confuse someone trying to find the right chips.

Newegg has 256 sticks of PC2700 with these same chips in stock, they are M.tec, have the dimples and the hole in the lower left corner AND are marked ast AA4T in the product number. They sell for $32, plus just under $5 shipping so it comes to $37 per stick. The picture appears to show a week 31 date. It would appear that these are also the good chips, right?

Or might they be relabeled bh-6? Wouldn't that be sweet for $37 per stick?

I'd say buy them And if the chips are winbond, the p/n code definitely ends with AA4T

You state this info is valid for DDR400 only...in that case the modules I linked above, which are DDR333 but match in all other respects would not Winbond at all or would they be Winbond bh-6 and not Winbond UTT?

Just trying to get it straight in my head.

[enzoR]

i think thats UTT.... either way they are both good

[X-GeN]

I'm sorry I think it could also be DDR333. But I know that if it's written AA4T it is Winbond. But I dont know if it is ch-5 or bh-5/bh-6

Is Winbond UTT = Winbond Bh-5 ??

[Reefa_Madness]

I was told by a guy that works at a Fry's that there were some 512 sticks of the TwinMOS PC2700 with M.tec chips that matched the descriptions and I was trying to make sure it was worth pursuing. They have them for $90 per stick so if anyone is near a Fry's you might want to drop in and see what they have in stock. Outpost.com doesn't have any listed.
