mushkin siemens?

from the mushkin site:
Please note we have begun extensive tests on Athlon motherboards and PC133 memory. Our recommendation currently for Athlon boards using the Via Chipset is our Mushkin PC133 Hand Picked High Performance Modules and our Mushkin w/ Siemens Infineon PC133 Module. Our tests have shown these Mushkin modules to be extremely stable in Athlon boards. They run stable at 222, or CAS 2 at 133Mhz and above.

Everyone talks about mushkin's rev 2 high performance ram, but what is this siemens stuff? if mushkin endorses it, i'm guessing it has to be good. i can't find any tests of it, though. it's about $30 less than the rev2.

i run a 128mb stick of siemens pc100 in my duron (a7v) at home and it works great. I bought a stick of the cheap mushkin to put in my little brothers system because it was just as cheap as siemens. Both are excellent in my opinion.

I have a 256mb stick of Siemens gold. Anyone know how fast the chips go? I'm contemplating overclocking on my p2b-ds if it's possible with these chips. Thanks,

ok, so this ram uses infineon chips. does that mean it will have the same specs as infineon ram? http://www.gamepc.com/reviews/hardware_review.asp?review=160sdram&page=8 overclocks various types of ram, and they say this ram can go to 166 (3-3-3). for the record (according to this site), this would be just as fast as 140-150 mhz (2-2-2) (cas3 = 85 or 90% speed of cas2?)
is this true?
