8GB (4x2GB) Geil Black Dragon DDR2-800 - $93.50 FS

[AmberClad]

If you're into "blingy" RAM...

8GB (4x2GB) Geil Black Dragon DDR2-800 - $93.50
with Promo Code EMCBACEBH

5-5-5-15
1.9v - 2.5v (!)

EDIT:
Spike notes that this kit is rated at 1.8v for CAS 5 and 2.0v for CAS 4 on the GeIL homepage.

2.5v does seem like it would be shockingly high for everyday use...

I saw this in my email and decided no after I saw the 2.5v.

 

[Denithor]

Wow...no rebates involved! Nice find.

 

[Genx87]

Very nice, sucks I dont really have a need for the memory 🙁

 

[Martimus]

Wow, that is cheap. How long is this deal for?

 

[AmberClad]

The promo code expires on 10-30-08.

that's just the upper limit of the officially recognized safe operating range, the lower would be 1.9v

This is from the Geil website:

"- Working Voltage: 800C5-1.8V/800C4 - 2.0V"

Here is the direct link. I have 0 need for this but man, that price is very nice.

I know but when they list voltages that high, it usually doesn't bode well for a good OC.

if they work as good as their look this could be good.

As I linked to the voltages for this ram at 1.8v at C5 and 2.0v at C4, not 2.5v as listed by newegg.

Me too. Even though I didn't need the memory. Oh well, maybe it will help jump start the economy.

 

[AmberClad]

Thanks for the clarification Spike, I'll edit the OP.

 

[Martimus]

I just bit too. 8GB for less than $100 was too much to pass up. Especially since it is rated at 1.8V. Thanks Amber.

 

[AAjax]

still working

Thanks to the OP, I'm in for one. Still seems unbelievable to me, 8 gigabytes of memory for less than $100.....
