Gerard · 23 Mar 2006 at 20:31

Been looking at:

G.Skill 2GB DDR HZ PC4000 (2x1GB) CAS3 Dual Channel Kit
G.Skill 2GB DDR ZX PC3200 (2x1GB) CAS2 Dual Channel Kit

I really need a 2 gig ki thats gonna hit around 265+ fsb's, any of these 2 upto the job?

(prescott system 3.2@4ghz btw)

Sounds like you'll be wanting to wait for the same ram as I am

Oh yeah, and it'll reach 275FSB no problem, or 270FSB at 1T command rate and timings of 3,4,3,7

if any of those will hit it, it will be the pc4000 as its rated at 250, where as the pc3200 is rated at 200mhz

Yeah the HZ's are your best bet. As said above, guaranteed for 250Mhz but you've a fair chance of seeing 265Mhz but its pot luck really. Think there's a thread dedicated to them on here.

i agree

250Mhz is acheievable with the ZX kit at least with mine and a few other peoples who I know but it is not guaranteed.
