HOT!! Crucial 512MB pc2700 $63.90 shipped

xylem · Mar 7, 2003

Great deal. I ordered some too, and received it 3 days later. It is Crucial.

Does anyone that ordered want to trade one of these sticks for a Samsung pc2700 stick (512mb of course)? I'd like to get matched memory in my machine, and right now I have mixed Crucial and Samsung.

BUMP this up for likely rise in DDR prices...

Fingolfin269 · Mar 7, 2003

What likely rise? Crucial just dropped prices on all their ram again yesterday on their site. I think it people all run to buy ram right now then yes the price will rise. Just don't freak.

UnCool · Mar 7, 2003

I'm still waiting for an order confirmation/tracking number (since the 3rd). I already received my other parts, won't be able to run it w/o the ram

Savizzaviz · Mar 7, 2003

If you ordered from CnetPC, you should have grabbed the Samsung Sticks. They are the same price, at least today they are.
$62.00 either brand.

Balex99 · Mar 7, 2003

Ordered mine on the 1st. Showed up on the 6th. No complaints here. And yes it is crucial. Can't wait to try it out.

oko · Mar 8, 2003

Ordered on 3/3, never got a shipment email, but when I track
it on their page, it shows as shipped on 3/6. So, if you never got an shipment
email, just check their "order tracking" page.

jna · Mar 8, 2003

I ordered Thursday and got tracking # Friday. Should be here Tuesday. I love it when stuff comes from NJ instead of CA.

CanisEstInVia · Mar 8, 2003

yup crucial here. thanks for the deal.

MarkB · Mar 8, 2003

oh man.. i am so tempted... broke but really tempted.. any word on how these sticks overclock?

Seen mixed reviews online and most aren't very recent

got a p4 1.6a setup now.. bout to add the watercooling.. that i bought in sept(yes i'm that lazy)

thinking maybe get this and in the future pick up another stick and run it in a dual ddr setup like the sis655.. and in dual ddr333 performance diff between that and dual ddr400 is pretty negligible ... bah.. so tempted

dp004i · Mar 9, 2003

Well, looks like this is in fact too good to be true. Those sticks are Crucial PC2700 all right, but they are not overclockable at all. The one I got wouldn't run at 2.5-3-3-6-1T, let alone 2-2-2-6-1T. In fact, it wouldn't run at any setting but BY SPD, regardless of voltage. Even a slightest bump in FSB and the system won't load windows. I guess those must be customer returns that Crucial dumped dirt-cheap. Maybe I'm the only one who's so unlucky, but I wouldn't be surprised if others are having the same problem.
PS: I tried a 256 meg Samsung PC2700 stick and it ran fine at CAS2, so I know the problem is with the memory, not the mobo.

MarkB · Mar 9, 2003

might be the 1T

some mem doens't like that

dp004i · Mar 9, 2003

Hmmm, OK. Let's see if that might fix things.

I'll confirm that

My two sticks wouldn't run at 2.5-3-3-6 at 166mhz.. weird
