Here's the dilliyo: I bought one (1) stick of GeIL PC2700 ULTRA memory (the 512MB variant) from buyxtremegear.com.

Info 1: NEVER DEAL WITH BXG!! THEY SHIP IN 3 WEEKS NOT 3 DAYS!

I installed the one stick into my A7N8X Deluxe, which I also bought from BXG (super low price back then). It ran fine until right after the BXG warranty ran out. The warranty is 30 days and now it has been around 5 months since my purchase, so I'm guessing that I won't be able to RMA with BXG so I e-mailed GeIL tech support.

Info 2: DONT EMAIL THEIR TECH SUPPORT! THEY NEVER ANSWER!

It has been about 3 weeks since I last e-mailed them and I am e-mailing their Taiwanese tech support right now. On GeIL's website here they say that the GeIL PC2700 Ultra comes with a lifetime warranty. So will I be able to RMA this baaaaad stick-o-ram with GeIL or do I have to sell it?

Thanks for the help in advance.

EDIT: I don't know if this is in the right section...but if it isnt, then just so you know I was overclocking my 1.4GHz AYHJA TBird with this RAM and one month after I purchased it, it went bad. 166x9 was stable with the RAM until it went bad so I bought Corsair and I'm running the TwinX PC2700LL right now. Just want 1GB of dual channeling schtuffz.

Yeah, exactly. So I'm wondering why hasn't GeIL replyed to my e-mails? Was the english too advanced for them or what? :p :)
