Just received two kits of this RAM. This ram is the extreme version of the 2GB HS which is rated at PC3200.
Here some official specs:
* Package : 2048MB kit (2x1GB) dual channel pack
* IC Spec : Samsung
* CAS Latency : 3-4-4-8 (PC4000)
* Test Voltage : 2.6~2.8 V
* PCB Board : 6 Layers PCB
* Speed : DDR 500MHz (PC4000)
* Type : 184-pin DDR SDRAM
* Error Checking : Non-ECC
* Registered/Unbuffered : Unbuffered
* Quality Control : Comprehensive rigorously tested in pair at dual channel environment
* Warranty : Lifetime
I tested two kits to see if the the OC results are similar.
Here some pics:
This RAM also uses SAMSUNG UCCC IC's.
I tested on two CPU's, a Venice 3000+ week 17 and a week 28 X2 3800+. Both average overclockers with at least memorycontrollers that can handle DDR600 with MP9x.
Venice system:
-DFI nF4 ultra-D BIOS 623-3 (official site bios)
-Asus 450Watt
X2 system:
- DFI nF4 SLI-D BIOS 623 (Factory bios)
- Tagan 480W-U22 2Force
DDR500 3-4-4-8 1T stock tests
3Dmark01, 3000+
Everest, X2 3800+
SPI 32M, X2 3800+
Lets see what it can do when overclocking.
What I have noticed is that this IC doesn't like high voltages. The sweetpoint is 2.5~2.65v.
DDR540 3-4-4-8 1T 2.54v~2.58v
SP2004, 3000+
SPI 32M, 3000+
DDR556 3-4-4-8 1T 2.54~2.58v
SP2004, 3000+
SPI 32M, 3000+
Memtest86++ STD, 3000+
Here 280Mhz 3-4-4-8 1T at same voltage!
SPI32M X2 3800+
3Dmark01, X2 3800+
I also can memtest86++ 280MHz at 3-4-3-8 1T at the same voltage, but SPI 32M craps out.
Memtest86++ STD, 3000+
I think the average OC of this memory lies between 270~280 3-4-4-8. I see guess2098 with 3-3-3-3 OC, unfortunately I cannot achieve this timings on both CPU's.
An important setting when going over 250MHz, is setting Read to write Delay on 3 or higher, 2 will nogo.
