Building my system with this lovely stuff tomorrow so will post then when i have had a fiddle. 
Hi there
You can only get these from OcUK now and yes they are damn impressive. Slacken the timing to 4,4,4,12 and they seem to hit 1000-1100MHz with relative ease.
What kinda voltage can you put through these, I've never gone past 2.2v in general but now see a lot of people pushing upto 2.5v through their memory, is that safe with DDR2?

Got these from elsewhere just before OCUK brought the lot!
Voltage wise, 2.5 is probably the max safe up to 2.6 for short periods shouldn't be a problem, just keep the chips cool. 24/7 up to ~ 2.3/2.4 *should* be ok but again make sure the modules are well cooled.

thanks for some notes on the voltage fronts there, these sticks are actually rated up to 2.2V with warranty so if you're getting those speeds/timings with 2.05 then ramp it up a little!!!
its going to cost me £440 to buy the rest of my system, i'm so tempted just to do it today!!!

If this stock runs out will that be it? i.e is this a limited edition?? Is Crucial intending on making more of this ram?
Soldato
Ok thanks for the info appreciate it, placing order today!Gibbo said:Hi there
Yes that will be it, hence limited edition.
Hi Gibbo, I know you can't really answer this but I am curious as to the number of units you 'bought out' I mean CRUCIAL is such a huge manufacturer!!Gibbo said:
1-500
500-1000
1000+
I'm just trying to gauge if your stocks will survive to xmas

Seriously Wayne don't hang about, I've seen this a dozen times. It is good stuff for the money and once word gets out it'll go.

Good man there.Big.Wayne said:Lol I got mine already

I wonder if it's worth buying 4GB? for when Vista is upon us? if this stuff is limited edition it doesnt provide much use just buying 2GB because you will never be able to buy another 2GB lol.
Will any games in 2007 be feasable for use with 4GB???
Crucial must be crazy, this is a clear winner they would sell tons of these sticks if they just kept manufacturing them. They dont see the bigger horizon.
