Using 7.04BTA & want 300+ stable FSB dual channel 1T
Don't care about divider just want it stable

Thinking 2X512 low latency:
PQI3200-1024DBL
or
PQI3200-1024DBH

Ideally would ike to end up with TCCD chips but 'egg info is strange..

Don't want Corsair & Want Heatspreaders
Open to OCZ, Patriot, Gskill etc. that's been know to be DFI friendly

BTW:Moving my 2x512 CorsairValue out. It doesn't like dual channel as well as single
and only seems to be stable at the 150 (.75) divider only!
had to go below 300fsb for both sticks and disable bank interleave

Well I doubt your going to get a great overclock from any of the 1Gb kits at this level, and your very unlikely to get TCCD your far more likely to get winbound UTT if your really luck you might get RAM that can hit 250MHz, atleast if you do get winbound UTT you've got a motherboard that can give the voltage it needs to fly. The PQI 32000 - 1024DBH is the better option here.

I used 2x512mb of PQI turbo PC4000 with my DFI, and it worked good. I wanted 2gb, so I am using 2x1gb OCZ platinum now.

Even though the DBH is 2.5 - 3 - 3 -7

and the DBL is 2 - 3 - 2 - 5

so it's just luck of the draw what's under the heatspreader?

I'd just get the DBL 2-3-2-5 stuff. If it winds up not being TCCD, you still are left with good timings. And it's cheap.

I terribly sorry, yes I did mean to say DBL.

I would say steer clear of OCZ, they have a very tough binning system this means if this RAM was capable of running at a faster speed to fit in line with OCZ other products it wouldnt be being sold as PC3200.
