[shuRe]

[GSKILL TECH]

i think it max out avg is 260 +- 5

I think I'm byuing this set as soon as newegg has them in stock? Was this an off the shelf pair or is it one of those super dooper sets that the people at g.skill picked for you?

He himself is one of the people at g.skill and as he said he picked two kits out of 50+ and this one does better than the other.... Nice results at a very nice price!!!

So what is the difference to F1-3200BIU2-2GBHX?

Both PC3200 and same timings unless newegg has a typo:

[Dave_Sz]

Only thing I see is that one has a Z and the other an H. Since Z is later in the alphabet that H, I'm gonna take that one. Kidding, kidding, I'd like to know as well why one is $50 mor ethan the other?

I made a seperate post about this, can the G.Skill rep please comment on this? I want to order some ram today!!

[GSKILL TECH]

man, LA is a bit cold today.

2GBHX is our another item. it price is higher than HS, HZ, and ZX. be sure order the right. the chip, i don't want to say i don't know, but i can't tell due to my business contract. I think 2GBZX max at 260 +- 5 but that just my thought. but i had heard from my friends said that 2 of his set, 1 OC to 262 and 1 only OC to 248.
remember i picked 2 sets too. 1 of the set does 251. so i took the avg is around 260+-5 or 248~270. it is a big range.
however, the price for 2GBZX is much much lower than anyother OC-able 2GB kit.
compare with 250+ from our other products and 300+ from other companies.

[GSKILL TECH]

also i am sorry i don't have intel's mobo. g.skill tw hasn't mail me one yet!
i want a DDR2 and DDR intel mobo too

[Dave_Sz]

These have been out a month or so right? The weird thing that 2 or 3 days ago I saw the kit on newegg, or at least I thought I did, and a few hours later it was gone and it wasn't listed as out of stock either, the single 1gb sticks are. The kit was for $221 I believe and the singles are $117. Any clue as to who else sells these?

[aicjofs]

Your not crazy. I saw it day before yesterday and was waiting till payday on Friday to buy. They completely vanished without a trace. It was $221.

[rancid]

I went to get a set as well and its gone The single sticks are OOS as well. Send Newegg some more ram G.Skill! I am waiting for a review of the $275 set.

[GSKILL TECH]

i just try 4 dimm 2T @ DDR520 3-2-3-5

[Dave_Sz]

Between the HS, HZ, and ZX, which 2gb set would you suggest for someone who wants to run them at around 245 won a divider? For someone looking for the highest overclock from them? I'm leaning towards the ZX at the moment.
