I placed my order on 3/2 and got the shipping info on 3/4. The shipping email was filtered into my junk mail, you might want to check there.

Need some advice, or at least some opinions ;-)

I'm running a PC2100/266 machine right now (Athlon XP1800+) - Is there any ram I can buy now that would also probably work in my next likely machine?
I believe pc2700 would work, but I've lost track of the higher numbers (333, 400 etc.)

I just wanted to give you guys a heads' up on a possible decent deal. My Dad works for Spectek, which is just a division of Micron. He told me that they sold PNY a crapload of modules, many of them PC2700. I thought about it a little bit and decided to go down to the store. I saw PNY DDR 256MB PC2100 that turned out to be Spectek PC2700 instead. The chips markings end in 6a, or DDR333. The cheapest store right now is Best Buy at $34.99, but by pricematching you might be able to get it cheaper......:p

I had mine up to 180fsb at 2-2-2-6-1. That is also with another 512mb pc2700 samsung I had in there. I lowered it cause my new 2100+ proc is giving me hell right now.

The 2100+'s FBS is only 266MHz right? Can you overclock it enough to get the full 333MHz from this PC2700?

had mine up to 180fsb at 2-2-2-6-1.

Oh, and what does this mean?

Wow... So why do they call it Micron if it is actually Crucial?

This is awsome, though. I was going to get a Crucial 512 PC2100 from NewEgg for 67 bucks, but I am most definitally going to get one of these if they are the same thing. Brand-wise, that is.

this is good stuff.....tested it in my system (its my roomys ram) to see if it worked, and it booted at 210 into windows, and ran prime95 for 5 minutes, I didn't get to test it that much but I think I could have taken it higher.

me as well, i placed my order the 3rd or 4th and nothing yet.

I placed my order late on the 28th, finally got a shipping notice on the morning of the 5th, but no info from Fedex until that evening. So it took them a weekend and 3 business days to get my order onto a Fedex truck. What sucks is that I won't receive delivery until Monday.

If it weren't for this being such a good deal, I would be really upset at CNETPC.COM right now.
