CRT: A Gaming Guru.

My Sony G400 is, I suspect, on its last legs (noticeable horizontal wavering of the image), and I've been looking round at 19-inch CRTs in the $200ish price range. Of course everyone points to NEC Diamondtrons (qv AnandTech's system guides, as well as those of ArsTechnica et al), but there are...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

Outpost now offers a $20 rebate on the webpage for the KHX3200A/512. In theory, the final price would then be $69.99. Unfortunately, if one examines the rebate PDF, it is for KHX3200AK2/1G (ie the dual 512 MB DIMMs kit). I'm starting to understand why, despite the low prices and the...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

KHX3200A: realistically 2-3-3-6 is what you should try at 200 MHz (officially it is 2-3-2-6, and some people can do it). SPD will set the memory to CL 2.5 (on some motherboards even 3!). Manually adjust it yourself, but 2-3-3-6 ought to work on a decent board at 2.6V. You're very unlikely to...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

According to Kingston, Outpost ordered KHX3200 memory from them and then later KHX3200A and most likely have them linked to the same PLU. From: ###@Kingston.com Subject: Re: legitimacy of third-party Kingston memory sales and warranty Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 09:11:36 -0700 Dear Sir -...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

It did half occur to me that whingeing about the KHX3200A v nonA might reduce the 'heat' of this deal. On the other hand, even though $90 is a great price for BH5-bearing KHX3200, I was not best pleased by Outpost sending refurbished memory. At $90 (or $80) I'd rather receive new, working...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

Well, I tattled on our favourite retailer to Kingston in a fairly detailed email. Of course, Outpost is now shipping the advertised memory, ha. Anyhow, the text of their response follows. It pretty much confirms what forum participants have figured out on their own. * * * *...

To those of you who actually received KHX3200A memory: what UPC did you find on your packaging? :confused:

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

Outpost.com has updated their rebate form. Unfortunately it still features all the confusing details of the previous form ('ValueRAM', photo of DIMM sans heat spreader, 'KHX3200A/512R' model). The rebate deal has been extended till 26 October, however, and the rebate number and department have...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

At this point, I'd rather be in raulinigo's situation. I'd prefer new, Kingston-labelled and sealed KHX3200A for $80 (with proper packaging, the rebate might work!) to something I didn't order and can't authoritatively identify. B^gger and blast, Outpost! And I'm such a sucker, I might...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

I visited Newegg and Zipzoomfly to examine their HyperX listings. Neither has KHX3200/512 in stock anymore. Newegg's photo of the module shows it inside a plastic container with a black 'backing', sealed by a wrapround sticker bearing the memory name and model as well as UPCs in several...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

... 'if it doesn't come in the box, how on earth do you send the upc for the rebate?' Presumably Outpost would instruct us to send in their sticker which is on the back of the clear plastic container. As I mentioned in my post above, I believe this is Outpost's sticker and not Kingston's...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

I wrote Outpost service the other day and received a response that they were behind in responding to email, and that it might be 48 - 72 hours before they could provide a definitive response. How convenient, especially as the rebate offer ends on the 21st. At this point, I am far more...

Kingston 512MB PC3200 HyperX - $90 @ outpost.com

I purchased this memory a couple weeks ago from Outpost.com. Like others, I was shipped 'KHX3200/512', though I've not tested it yet so am ignorant of whether it carries BH5 chips. There appear to be very slight abrasions in the middle of the heat spreader (used, refurbished module?). If this...
