Buffalo-Tech Winbond BH-5 Memory, good stuff?

[human2k]

I sent an email to Bufflo tech to confirm wether the PC3200 Winbond stuff uses the BH-5 chips and it does. Newegg had this stuff for $70 per 512mb a couple days ago but its outta stock and now at $75. BTW they also have Winbond PC3700 512mb for $96.



ANy success stories with this stuff?


Btw here's the email I recieved:

The part number on the RAM chip is:
W942508BH-5

Specs are at:

Not all PCB is created equal. It may have Winbond BH-5 chips, but not run like it normally does on good Corsair PCB.

But I think some of their PCB is PwrMem brand which is excellent.

Does anyone have any experience with RAM from Buffalo-Tech? I'm currently looking for some better RAM than my generic right now. I've narrowed it down to Hyper X PC3000 or TwinMos PC3200 (Cosair seems to expensive for my taste), but after looking at Buffalo-Tech, they seem to be pretty good.

That PC3500, are there any of the PC3200 or PC3700? $96 for 233MHZ rated ram is sweet.

Well, does the price difference make-up for the performance difference?
