my wallet jumped out of my window but realized it was only a storey off the ground so then went to the local apartment complex, rang the elevator, waited patiently, helped an old lady out the elevator, went up and jumped off a 50 foot roof, then on the way down stabbed itself repeatedly to make sure.

lol

Now, can you actually hit 500Mhz?

BTW I updated the original post to include the fact these use Samsung modules...had to dig around a bit

hopefully a little more voltage and tricks will get these to run at lower timings...guess we will find out. Someone order these bad boys up and tell us

Heck of a wallet you got there. I wonder what it'll cost if they tighten up the timings; they're kind of lax.

I gotta say this is the biggest load of cr@p. Who wouldnt be able to get a DDR400 CAS2 chip to 500 if they laxed every single timing and overvolted the chips? Wow they can run that DDR500 on 2.65 volts. To me you didnt accomplish anything till you ran it like that stock, or at least to me, you can brand something DDR500 unless it runs that stock. (SARCASM) Hey, I have this new processor, I will sell it to you. It is a brand new Intel P4 4.0Ghz!!! Only one thing, you have to run it 533FSB, you have to run it at 1.95volts, you need a cryo-cooler, or bare liquid nitrogen!!! But other than that, it is awesome, and I will sell it to you for the low low low low price of 839.99!!! Operators are standing by...

BTW, I dont prefer samsung chips... just personal opinion. I will stick with my Corsair thank you very much... Non-samsung chips for mine...

 

[Mangler]

Sad fact is that Corsair will be using Samsung chips on their PC-4000 due to the tax on Hynix...

Only a guess, but I'd bet money on it

 

[Mickey21]

Yes, I do know that Corsair has used and WILL probably use Samsung chips in the future, the keyword was prefer. I will always try to buy the best product for the job, at this time I dont feel Samsung is for memory. That may or may not ever change... I try not to limit my choices based on generalized bias. Not that I think anyone here is doing so...
