take a picture of the SPD tab: slots 1, 2 and 3 - you can open 5 instances of cpu-z and take a picture of slot1, slot2, slot3, memory and cpu main tab. this way you can post 1 screenshot.

Something just isn't adding up, 2.7ghz at 1.264v seems about as likely as DDR2-533 running at DDR2-1078 let alone with 3-4-4-11 even at 2T

EDIT: and with HTT at 1200mhz. I'd like a screenshot of windows properties windows with CPU-Z(with a verifiable code) showing CPU, memory and spd tabs and any kind of stability test like prime95, orthos or even super-pi running. I mean no offense if this is genuine, just gotta understand the actual chances of this happening, especially with mixed ram none the less, is like 1 in 100million at best.

No offense here as well, but did you set the timings manually or leave it to BIOS (Auto)?

I expect two things here to matter. First 512MB DIMMS...yeah these will be tight. Most folks here will assume you are talking minimum of 1GB DIMMS these days.

Second is single-channel. This is far less demanding on the DIMMS. Kind of like 1T vs 2T for command rate, whole other world when you stop demanding dual-channel access timings.

So I recommend pulling a DIMM and testing for dual-channel stability, and even then don't be surprised if most folks aren't impressed with the timings on 512MB DIMMS. We are usually talking about 1GB and 2GB DIMMS these days.

So I get this right you have 1 1gb stick and two 512 sticks?
and a verification link would be great
and if so .... good find

there is a 1gb dimm in it

so all three of these wonder sticks can do DDR2-1078 at CAS 3 with 1.95v... cause you know, all memory modules must run at the same speed. nice try though, you almost had me.
