    Puts up better performance numbers at 566 than TCCD memory can at 610.
    That is saying a lot.
    Teh only catch is that it requires +3.5V.
    Shove these into your new DFI LP4 and it should rock.

    Memtest 86 is built into the BIOS of that DFI board? Prime must be a DFI shareholder :D

    Yeah that DFI with some VX sounds like the ticket, that's for sure. If things work out like I hope they will, that's going to be my next computer I build I think.

    I got a call from my sister; said she was messing around at www.unclaimed.org and when she put my name in there was an unclaimed bank transaction that had both mine and my mother's name on it. When I get in from work next week, I need to go by the bank and establish my bonafide's to the the account and then I'll be able to claim a little over $3300.00! :eek::D I guess this was an account that my Mom had set up and it slipped through the cracks of her estate when she passed away.

    I can see mud ordering parts right now.
    The memory only comes as 2x512.

    Which CPU are you looking at???

    For now, I'll just pull the Winny 3000+ out of my Epox rig and run it until the new stepping A64's are available that have both SOI and strained silcon and SSE3 instructions. I'll also have to get a pci-e vid card to go with it too, probably a 6600GT or 6800. I'll probably end up selling my old A7N8X-dlx folding rig's guts when I have both the A64 systems in operation.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but people were getting some tremendous overclocks on the PC3200 version of the VX as well. Probably just binned higher like the OCZ Plat. Rev2 and other higherend OCZ products. Havent seen the PC4000 for sale yet, wonder what the price difference will be.

    I looked it up at newegg the other day and I believe it's somewhere's around $250 for a gig DC set.
