MUSHKIN REDLINE XP4000 sneak peek...

[charlie]

I recently had the opportunity to get some Mushkin Redline XP4000 sticks to try out. With my recent success with MUSHKIN “Blue” maxing out at 275, 2-2-2 and the High Performance PC4400 running near 300 on an Intel 865PE/P4-630 @ 2.5-3-3, I was expecting a lot from these sticks. They don't fail to impress.
These are retail sticks, with a handsome red heatspreader, green Brainpower pcb and are part #991439...

With PC4000 rated sticks, DDR500... there's no need to play around with them at <250, so I threw them in my DFI Ultra-D at 250, 3.3v, 2-2-2, 1T and “of course”, they run perfectly... memtest clean for zillions of loops. But the interesting part comes when you start to turn it up a notch. First off, let's get it out in the open, these things love voltage and the results you're about to see include results at just over 4v.

It's really clean and "usable" in the 270's... running even "long" computations into teh mid-270's.

The MAX I've verified is 288.35mHz, 1.5-2-2-6 @ 3.8v I've seen 290+ at higher voltages. I'll try chilling the ram later looking for 300mHz, 1:1, 2-2-2

WOW!! Charlie where did you buy this from?

[SLaY3r07]

/me wants some Now!

[Fosco]

Nice memory..

Is this with DRAM Bank Interleave Enablet or Disablet ?

[charlie]

Bank Interleave ENABLED and cpc 1T

[Tibu]

What would be the cost of these babies?

[charlie]

WOW!! Charlie where did you buy this from?

IIRC, it hits the retail channels on MONDAY!!

Does it really make a huge difference?

[Fosco]

Does it really make a huge difference?

Yes.. about 300mb unbuffered..

[mrlobber]

Heh, lately it has been charlie + Mushkin =

Me eagerly wants to know now what will come out of mrlobber + Mushkin

[TEDY]

damn you charlie...where did you get them!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :P

HOW MUCH THEY COST ?

[xgman]

I suspected as much big "C". Great minds think alike. lol Got some 4000's coming next week.

[TEDY]

if you get 300 2-2-2-x i will be like this



<- charlie at comp

more pics please

[Bennah]

You just got to love Mushkin

Great results there Charlie

Gimme some of that charlie... plizzz. You know I want it 16M or 32M perhaps

Nice sticks you got there, sir

EDIT: Can you also show A64Tweaker window, please ?

[iddqd]

These seem awfully similar to OCZ's pc4000VX. Oh, yeah...

[TEDY]

hopefully they won't cost more then 200$ ?

[Zyklon5]

What IC do they have ? is all Redline production going to scale similarly with voltage up to 3.8- 4.0v ?

[eva2000]

nice

for comparison sake, could you tighten the advance timings @ 277mhz 1.5-2-2-6 for superpi for a comparison as it seems slow at that speed

2x 512MB XMS3200C2v1.1 BH-6 @ 250mhz 2-2-2-5 7-16-3314

That's exactly why I asked for A64Tweaker... Charlie seems so have TRC at 12clks. But, again - this is 277MHz so I wouldn't be surprised that he had to do that.

[eva2000]

yeah that's why i asked as sometimes tightening Trc/Trfc requires more vdimm i.e. 0.1-0.3v more than at looser Trc/Trfc.

[charlie]

A bit tighter... there's more left, too! I'd say I can go another couple steps higher at 277-278. I'm trying hard now to get this gig stable at 280!
