It's generic "cr*p".....

Website has been posted before....if I remember right it had a fairly low rating....


I don't like the "7.0 nanoseconds or faster " part....and that useless graph comparing pc100 to pc133, what does it mean?


Also as a FYI, many mb's have problems with 512mb modules..heck, the i815 chipset is limited to 512mb....so one module is all it can handle.....

My two worthless pesos....

Wow, looks pretty good to me. Anyone else ever bought this stuff, or anything from this company before?

I thought BX chipsets only support up to 256 MB DIMMs. Anyone know?

i got a 256M chip from them. The chips themselves have no name on them, show up in sandra as mitsubishi chips. The stick's runnin right now at 150MHZ CAS2 with the 4 bank interleave on in my epox 8kta3. you're mileage may vary, mine was pretty good.

that does seem like a very good deal for a 512 MB chip. That PC 100 vs. PC 133 graph is hilarious. That reminds me of a recent lab report I did, where my professor took off several points for using, as he called it a "deceptive scale" which makes a very small difference look like a very large one. I almost burst out laughing when I saw that graph.
