Ok - I received the first test stick from neweggy and quickly with excitement put it in the slot.
Corsair XMS3500C2 512Mb with specs of (CL2-7-3-3 @ 2.5v DDR433)

Booted straight into MemTest @ only 150fsb 3:4 ratio DDR400
Can you say Errors, errors, errors!!!!!!!!!

Guess What? Piece of Junk. :disgust: Never even bothered with any benchmarks. :frown:
Went back on a exchange RMA today. Maybe the next one will do something.

Reduced the bus to 147 3:4 ratio 2.6v (CL2.5-7-3-3) DDR392 with the following results:
Running all 11 tests:
Test # Errors
3 1024
5 247836
8 643252
all 11 753528

OCZ shows to be delivered Monday, so we shall see how it goes.

OK, so now I got in a replacement stick for the XMS3500 and it only made it to 152fsb (3:4) DDR406.

I also got in the OCZ EL PC3500 and it only made it up to 141fsb (3:4) DDR376.

Anyway, both are RMA'd and on their way back. I think that pretty much confirms it is garbage as far as I am concerned.

Maybe it is my old BD7II mobo, but I think not.
Frustrated :disgust: I went ahead and ordered a P4G8X and 2 sticks of Corsair PC3200LLPT.

I now have to go buy some lotto tickets and win so that I can pay for this addiction. 😀
