can only test on Single Channel :/ but at low timings

I was able to lift the side of the heatspreaders enough to discover Winbond BH-6 chips underneath on the 256Mb sample

will try to do the same trick on the 512Mb one, but seeing as it running stable at 220Mhz CL2 2-2-5 @ 2.85v I don't know if it necessary to confirm it

512Mb stick is also BH-6

with 2.85v they top out between 220-225Mhz

offers some competition for Corsair XL, from GamePC review:

"you want stability at higher clock speeds, you'll have to loosen the timings on the modules. We could only get our 2-2-2-5 memory timings to be stable at DDR speeds up to 225 MHz, which is still quite impressive"

testing done on P4 platform

Asus P4C800 + P4 2.4 "c"

would you be interested in seeing results on

DFI nForce2 infinity (high VDDR) + Mobile 2500+

and

MSI Neo nForce3 250gb + A64 3000+

?

I'll need to install XP from scratch for both test setup as I've never installed them yet, have them for over 2! months now.. just tells you how much time I got.. same reason I had to sell the Mach I unit.. no time :/

this reviewing does take away part of the original hobby of overclocking the same setup for several days on end. ah well.. off-topic brabbeling

AXP & A64 testing appreciated? This will push back the review to Monday. otherwise I'll have it done Saturday

I compare these sticks to Corsair PC3200 "Pro" (don't have XL, a real shame) and Corsair PC3200 XMS (BH-6)

difference between 256Mb/512Mb in real life games (used UT2003) is about 0.7fps

. Took the most demanding map of all after testing each one. Botmatch on Serpentine

Offcourse i'd love to see the results on the DFI and MSI but it's your time, your call
