Hi.
I have a lesson at college called "Project". Where we get to work on our projects. Mine is ;
"improving the cooling of a PCB and increasing the operating clock frequency of its microprocessor" AKA Overclocking A Video Card!.
The card im using is my old Creative Labs GF3 Ti200 64mb.
Anyway;
I began stripping the old HSF and ramsinks off the card, and upon removing the ramsinks, i was greeted by a memory manufactuer ive never heard of.
EtronTech
Considering that they arn`t that well known (to me anyway), i was very suprised at how well it OCed when i used to use it (510mhz). That was running with the stock, crappy ramsinks.
Im putting some "chopped up" Pentium133 HS`s, on them, as im selling the card to a friend, and he wants it in its OCed state, and as his PC doesnt have the best ventilation, so better Ramsinks will help ensure it stays stable with a 110mhz OC on the mem. The core will be having a TT Crystal Orb on it.
4ns/500mhz mem.

EltronTech memory is used on some Radeon video cards. From what I understand it isn't the most expensive memory around.

EltronTech is generic RAM, it's really hit or miss. I had some on a Sapphire Radeon 9700 Pro that wouldn't work at stock speed.

The one labled on my GF3 Ti200 it EtronTech not EltronTech.
Very good OCer though. Did 510mhz fine, with some decent HS`s, i could probably go 520mhz higher. As long as it`ll do 510mhz stable though, my mate`ll be happy (selling the modded card to him!).
