Need Twinmos pc3200 Ch-5 stick. What are altenatives???

[FFactory0x]

I bought a 512mb stick of twinmos ch-5 here a year ago and want another 512mb stick but there no where to be found. What do i do?? I heard you shouldnt mix memory. Also how high will this mem i have go??? im running at 200fsb. But all in all if i want to run in dual channel what mem should i get. Using Epox 8rda+ with c1 stepping. Original board. Not 400mhz fsb approved

Its no problem mixing memory. It may be nice in your heard but in reality it doesn't matter. That memory u are talking about ussually gets some decent overclocks but the latency doesn't really like to be very tight. You can find other brands with ch-5 chips like Buffalo I belive. Check out the FS/FT forum i'm sure someone would consider selling some to you,

Whats some good stuff at new egg. Dual channel doesnt matter much to me. As long as i can oc both sticks in the future
BTW my timings are as follows with
Cas 2.0
Ras to Cas Delay 3
Ras precharge 2
tras 7
2.77v
200fsb

Since Winbond went out of the memory business, you're not going to find any more BH-5 or CH-5 unless you go on eBay. Even Buffalo (Melco) can't get Winbond chips any more.

well. Does it matter if i get non winbond stuff.
