just so you know, the usps still runs on the holidays, just not the carriers. the usps runs 24/7/365 so stuff still gets moved around, then on the next day the carrier comes out he gets lots of work

Got mine, will send out rebates tomorrow!

Got mine too - all were Micron just like the basic 1GB DDR2 sold by Crucial for $26. each on their site. Excellent! Overpackaged by HP though.

.bh.

Well, I couldn't take it any more. I ordered 5 from CostCentral. I'll sell one of them to a friend or ebay it to recoup some of the costs. Now all I need is a motherboard and processor to go with it

 

[JesseKnows]

I ordered from CostCentral on 1/17. Didn't get a conf. till yesterday 1/24. The tracking data shows shipped on 1/23.

At least it's on the way!

This has probably been answered before, but I didn't see anything after reading this thread through...

These are decent quality modules I'm assuming?? I've always bought value RAM in the past, and this looks too good to pass up... and these overclock decently enough??

Thanks.

Most people say they overclock to DDR2-800 easily. That's what I'm hoping for. That would give me 3.6GHz out of my Q6600, assuming the motherboard and cpu can go that high and like this memory.

These seem to mostly (if not all) be Micron modules identical to Crucial (Micron's in-house memory store) basic module part no. CT12864AA667 - Link: http://www.crucial.com/store/p...x?IMODULE=CT12864AA667 . Micron OEMs modules for lots of other companies. I've always had good luck with Micron/Crucial. I've got all my parts now, so I'll be assembling/testing for a while .

NEW QUESTION:
. I've been searching these things for something I can be sure is the Serial No., but I see two different numbers that seem to be unique to each module on the HP sticker on the modules. One is in the upper right corner and is labeled "Security ID" and the other is preceded by S/C:. Can anyone say for sure which it is.
. I've got a message in to HP support about it. We'll see whether both answers match.

Thanks,

I bought a few of thsese sticks back when the deal was about $13/each AR. Both worked perfectly in a Dell Vostro @ 667mhz. The rebates were absurdly fast too (2-3 weeks max)! I had no idea what the serial was so I think I left it blank but I had no rebate problems.

Some people received Samsung modules early in the first deal instead of Micron but I have not heard anyone complaining lately. I received mine today directly from HP but I ordered from PCsuperstore.com. They are Micron modules with the famous D9 chips.

In the original deal some people called HP rebate center about the serial and they said it was not needed but most of us used the S/C# anyway because it looks like a serial number.

 

[v8envy]

Just got my 4x sticks from costcentral. all 4 sticks with D9HNLs.

 

[LeonarD26]

Just placed my order! Hopefully my rebate comes fast....

Now I just need a deal on a MB and CPU... I don't really need an upgrade, but I couldn't pass this up... anyone need an Opy 165

 

[Qutlass]

Rebate Newb here. Its says the rebate expires on 1/31. Does this mean i have to purchase it before that date or have the rebate in on or before that date? thx!!

purchase it before that date

Side-note: I mailed a rebate on 1/8 and got it today 1/28.

 

[Qutlass]

cool, much thx.

 

[Univac]

Rebate Check Arrived Today

 

[1Cheap2Crazy]

I can't believe I got my rebate today! Mailed it in less than 4 weeks ago. Kudos to HP!

 

[Zauber]

I just ordered 5 more of these from cost central. I had purchased 3 lots of five back in october for $10 after rebate, all three rebates arrived within about 4 weeks. Back then i couldnt imagine the price getting any lower...boy was i wrong!

 

[PingSpike]

Rebate check arrived yesterday. Pretty damn quick turnaround compared to most places.

 

[Zap]

I hope my rebate gets to me quickly too. My first one from the previous deal got to me in UNDER TWO WEEKS after I mailed it.

thats good, my checking account is getting low from this upgrade

This briefly went to negative $0.05 at PCSuperstore with FREE shipping. I placed in cart and went to Google checkout and then thought that I should go through the main site. By the time I registered, they changed the price to $13 per stick after rebate! Damnit!

:crying;

 

[bob4432]

cost central went up too....

I just knew the price would get volatile hours before the rebate expired... and waited. I'm in no rush, being as AMD RS780 boards won't be available till early March. I lucked out and got it in at just the right time -- negative 5 cents AR. Too cool. At the time of my purchase there were about 400 pieces left in stock. Though I was in the process of posting the deal here, when the price shot up to $13 AR.

 

[child of wonder]

My co-worker was just about to get 4 sticks for a new PC he's building and the price shot up to $13AR literally seconds after I sent him the link.

Shitty!
