not likely

not likely? Isn't the new release of BH-5 based memory modules directly aimed at the enthousiast ? The same market segment at which TCCD based modules are aimed at? Of course i have no idea at which price the BH-5 will start but if it's a lot lower than TCCD they will have no choice.

well I suppose the big brands (Mushkin, Corsair, OCZ, ...) will buy the new BH-5's again but sell them at even higher prices then the TCCD ram they are selling now.

But just like before with BH-5, you'll be able to buy those same BH-5 chips on much cheaper TwinMOS ram.

I'm still just guessing here

those Winbond UTT chips seem to behave quite like BH-5 and OCZ is already using them, interesting to see what they will do with it,

competition is good, TCCD is good for running very high FSB with moderate timings, BH-5/UTT is good for those not able to get high FSB, but want tight timings instead to make up for the performance loss

Well, there seems to be a lot of talk going on about it

After 2 secs of googling I already found some interesting info

Any hints on when/where to get the new BH-5 based modules?

2nd February 2005, 11:38

yeah, when and where, im looking for a new pair of 512mb sticks soon

they should already be hitting the market by now, if not, wait for TwinMOS to officially anounce their ddr450 speedpremiums

2nd February 2005, 16:48

Well, Twinmos...

The first modules i bought for my 8rda6+ pro were Twinmos Dual Twister 2x512 dual channel kit rated cl 2. Which appears to be a bunch of BS because it wouldn't even run 2.5. Something was incompatible with nforce2 so is there a chance those ddr450 speedpremiums will give me the same problems?
