Model numbers compared (OCZ4001024 trimmed off)
V3DC-K -> Cas 3 ($83)
V25DC-K -> Cas 2.5 ($86)
WV3DC-K -> Cas 2.5, model name seems to incicates Cas 3. "W" in the front. ($105)

Which one is the Value VX that works with the DFI board?

$105 one.

Don;t worry the spd is 2.5 CAS

Mine is running 225mhz 2-2-2-5 @ 3v and can go higher with 3.3v

This memory is the sh!t

I've heard mixed results with TwinMOS.

If you're gonna use the DFI mobo, go with OCZ.

If not DFI then the Corsair MAY be ok, but don't expect too much out of it. It's not UTT is it?

I would definately feed the DFI the OCZ. It's just the safe route. TwinMOS is a huge gamble to me

My package says:

OCZ4001024WV3DC-K

Either it's VX, or I got some really good non-VX ram

go with either of those, the twinmos is more of a chance though because not everyone was getting the utt sticks.

Don't get Twinmos. Newegg doesn't sell Bh-5/ch-5 WInbound Untested twinmos anymore. They sell some crap chips now. THey used to sell BH-5 twinmos speed premiums, but they don't sell those anymore either. YOu're best bet to get WInbound UTT's are the Value VX 105 dollars.
