ocuk ddr2 2x1gb anygood?

Psypher5 · 9 Aug 2007 at 20:43

Just looking at the PC2-6400C5 800MHz kit a few reviews say its good, wondering if anyone can back it up?

Hopfully thinking of buying that ddr2/ddr3 gigabyte mobo and a cheapish c2d so overclocking would be intended.

I used to have a 1gb set of it and it did 900Mhz with 2.2v

Oh I love OCUK RAM

I got ocuk 1066 ram.

1st.. 2x1gig sticks & 1 stick would not allow post.
returned & replaced with 2 new sticks.

2nd.. 2x1gig sticks my brother bought at same time & 1 stick died after 1 month.
returned & replaced with 2 new sticks.

3rd.. further 2x1gig sticks I bought & both failed memtester.
returned & replaced with 2 new sticks.

4th. only 2 of the sticks will work in a GigP35 DQ6 or DS4 at 1066 so I have to run at 880 insted.

5th.. have spent £29 on copper heatspreaders as they run VERY hot & put a fan over them (I dont think this is why previous sticks died).

6th.. waiting for 1 of my 4 sticks to BLOW UP or something...

How well would 2 of these kits run together?, thinking of upping my memory to 4gb.

Don't think another set of 2x1gb Dominator would work well together, A guy on Corsair forums said they use different chips now (unsure if true).

Ah right, thanks for confirmation.
