Not really heard much about it, is it the 2x1Gb kit your looking at?
Well my freind had these and he got a nice overclock with them allthough it doesont affect it that much as if you want you can just put it on a divider and I think that they can allso take more voltage than most other ram.barrymacp said:

which kit have you got? i previously had the 3200gold VX kit that supports up to 3.1v, and i got these to run pretty sweetly!
If its the Gold VX kit with 2-2-2-5 timings then...
This is the kit I have in my P4 system...
unless you have a motherboard that can do 3+v vdimm then you will NOT be able to overclock these beyond 207MHz without the OCZ DDR BOOSTER... however if you can get 3.3-3.9v in your BIOS or have the OCZ DDR BOOSTER then you won't find any other DDR module that can match these for overclocking - mine do 2-2-2-5 timings at 250FSB (DDR-500) with about 3.4volts giving absolutely lovely speeds and the lowest latency I've ever seen - even below an FX62 or conroe... not that it makes a huge performance difference on a P4 tho.
Also these modules don't like other timings, i.e. slacking them to 3-4-4-8 won't give you any higher overclock than 2-2-2-5.

Top RAM and I had a set and maanged [email protected]
But if you really want performance ram then mushkin is your best bet
-awesome stuff
Any help?
It's decent ram.
I've got mine 14 hrs (so far) memtesting at 3.2v with ultra ultra low timmings of 1.5-2-2-5 @ 250mhz (they're not even breaking a sweat - not one error so far!!) Every other timming in the bios is as low as physically possible.
I'm eventually gonna try to reach 275mhz below 3.4v once i've burned them in properly
