I have a presario r3000z and decided to roll the dice. It came in friday. I ran memtest+ for 2 hours wo errors and has run fine over the weekend. I know some people with r3000z have had mem problems but I have the latest bios (f21) which compaq says fixes some memory issues. Well we'll see!

My experience with this memory on my Dell i8600 was bad. At first the stick cleared the MemTest (over several passes) and the Dell diagnostics fine. cpu-z confirmed the timings.

After I installed the memory I began to see artifacts in Doom3 and Half-life 2 that I did not see before. I addition 3DMark03 crashed without completing when it used to complete fine before. One week later the notebook BIOS gives a read error and only 768Mb of the total 1280Mb (1G+256Mb) is recognized. It is the new Premium 1Gb stick that has the error. I RMA it to Outpost. After I put back in my original memory, no more artifacts, no more crashes. I have the latest BIOS and it has no issues with the original memory sticks.

Outpost credits me for the return - minus the shipping for defective memory that they sent me. I called and am now waiting for their "approval" for the $9 shipping credit.

The 1 year warranty should have been a red flag. I have learned my lesson and I will only buy a top level brand that provides a lifetime warranty - like Crucial, or Kingston.

back to 150

(as is the 3200)
the 2700 in my system now, running fine with no swap file @ 1.25 gb ram (256 left from original config)


whats this result mean from cpuz 126

2 cache levels detected
Level 1 size = 8Kb latency = 2 cycles
Level 2 size = 512Kb latency = 19 cycles

or do you need the other info the prog gave me
