This deal isn't so hot

 

[jcmuse]

why not? post something better than!

 

[jcmuse]

haha its in stock now. dont buy them all !

How is this not a hot deal? This memory does 800mhz without a sweat and with a little voltage bump will do 900mhz no problem! Saves $100 while doing that and there are no rebates!

 

[jcmuse]

its been going in and out of stock, i bought some 9/25 in the morning, by noon it was oos... you just have to camp it since the auto-notify didn't tell me it was in stock, i just randomly looked

I'm glad I jumped on it when it had a $20 rebate ending Aug 31.. right now running at 720Mhz at 4-4-4-12 at 1.8v

Was showing up at $181 earlier today after newegg notified me they were back in stock. Hopefully in will go back to the usual price soon. I seen that with newegg.

Yah I'm bummed this jumped up so high in price. I still have time I don't get to even order my conroe set up until october 16th but I wanted to get everything in order and I'm just missing the proc and ram....this is the ram I really want since the reviews on it are so amazing.

 

[darklordbri]

this is the RAM i've been eyeing for weeks and cause it's been outta stock i couldnt get it. i'm so pissed at newegg that as soon as they get it back in stock they bump that price up ~$100! that's messed up.

wow $269...


thats pretty steep.


1.8v at 4-4-4 isnt bad though.

they probavly could sell it as ddr2-800 5-5-5 at 1.8v also



then again... almost any brand of ram can hit ddr2-800 with 2.0 volts, i know oem micron memory (such as in a dell) that is ddr2-667 5-5-5 1.8v rated almost always will hit ddr2-800 speeds. so maybe its a lot of marketing. $269 is a lot of money for just 2 gigs. even if it does hit high clocks, i figure it might just be better spending the extra $100 on something else.
