Geil DDR2 2x2GB Kit

[KIAman]

4GB DDR2 Ram

DDR2-800 @ 4-4-4-12

1.9-2.5v

Wow, I was going to get the G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2-1000 kit but the volts on this one is definately interesting...

Any thoughts on the ICs and OC potential of this kit?

G.Skill's newer 2x2 kits were a decent option since Mushkin's 2x2 were all outta stock.

Not anymore.

I would recommend this to ANYONE looking for a 2x2 kit, whether for cheaper, or for heavy OCing.


Mushkin ftw, easily.

What makes that Mushkin so special for its price?

The ram I was going to get were these.

Stock ddr2-1000 with some reviews.

I know these aren't Micron D9 but they do well.

What I AM curious is why that Geil ram specifies 1.9-2.5v

What could it possibly be?

Hmm, hadn't seen that review.

All the initial reviews of that G.Skill kit were showing it barely able to clock past it's default 500 MHz.

Seems like each succeeding review it's doing better & better.

So it seems like a very good option actually now that i see those results.

I'd still personally get the Mushkin though, as i suspect it's Micron.

Hmmm I wonder if Micron D9 in the 2gb density is as good of an overclocker as the 1gb density.

I've been googling all over and can't find a 2gb density ram that can take up to 2.5 volts. Arrrgggg, must know IC type.

nice! that is looking to be my next memory upgrade....double the ram for half the price i paid for my 2x1GB ddr2-800 last summer!

hopefully that can retain my 3.6Ghz overclock......

Which one are you getting? The G-skill DDR2-1000 or the Geil DDR2-800?
