Does anyone know the warranty for Apace memory?
1 year or 3 Years?

Also is it a pretty reliable brand of memory.
I just bought their Memory Card Reader because they are the only ones that make 2.0 USB. But not sure if I should buy their memory for upgrading my system..

I've never had any trouble with Apacer sticks and loved the Infineon chips I had back in the day, so I bit on this when the PC2700 was $60/pc. Got two for my dually AMD system.

Since it's only PC2100, I really shouldn't have any problems.

I've had good experiences with Apacer PC133 too... ordered one of the Newegg PC2700 512MB which should arrive middle of next week, will let you know how it turns out.

Received one of the PC2700 512MB modules yesterday...

It is Infineon chips 6ns
SPD programmed as 2.5, 3, 3

VERY BRIEF Testing with Memtest86 + Boot/Run Windows Apps, suggests the following (certainly this data is subject to error, not enough time testing, only one memory module in use, I was half asleep, and considering peculiarities of each mobo [Asus A7V333, default mem voltage]):

166, 2.5, 3, 3, 5 working
168, 2.0, 2, 2, 5 working
170, 2.0, 2, 2, 5 working but errors
182, 2.5, 3, 3, 5 working
182, 2.5, 2, 3, 5 Beeps (no POST)
182, 2.0, 3, 3, 5 working ??
182, 2.0, 3, 2, 5 Beeps (no POST)
182, 2.0, 3, 2, 6 working ??
182, 2.0, 2, 3, 6 Beeps (no POST)

190, 2.5, 3, 3, ? working

I bought 512MB PC2700.

I'm running it at DDR400 PC3200 on:

Epox EP-8RDA+
Athlon 2100+ [@2.0GHz 200x10]
6-2-2-2.5 [haven't tried anything more aggresive yet]
Ran Memtest86 for a while with no errors.

Great RAM for the money....I just bought another stick.

The music in the Peugeot spot is actually Bhangra Knights. They may have sampled from that other tune mentioned, but it's Bhangra Knights. (It's the "White Label Mix").

Well I didn't see it posted here but someone may have already said it.....
I have some Apacer PC133 C2 memory that works fine, but it is only rated for use with KT chipsets. That may be why some people have had problems with it.
It's high performance memory, but with limited uses.
I have 256 chip of PC133 running on a KT133a chipset that is very stable.
