PDP Low Latency PC3200 memory...ok?

[Parasitic]

Can a pair of these 512MB sticks run up to 210MHz, CAS 2.0-3-3-7? They are rated by PDP stock @ CAS 2.0-3-2-5...Those have the Mosel chips, apparently but I have no idea how great they are.

They're only $170 for 1GB...kinda unbelievable for CL2 memory.

i read a review on these. they did cas 2.5 @ 230 mhz so you are fun

run memtest to be sure

i can run 2x512 sticks of this mem at 2-3-2-5 1t at 210 im curently doing 233@ 2.5-3-3-8 2t 2.7volts

Ive found this memmory, or atleast my sticks, arnt good past 233 mhz. I havent really goto into major tweeking, but anything over 233 with even minor tweeking causes instant blue screen.

Sounds good, I've been looking for some good cheap ram.

Is there any advantage to getting the 1 GB (512x2) kit vs. buying 2 512 MB modules?

Edit: The kit is rated at 2.6 V while separate modules are 2.5.

Edit 2: This ram has 2-3-2-5 timings and some list 2-2-3-5 so I was wondering if these really 2-3-2-5 or 2-2-3-5. Anybody know how PDP lists their timings?

The 3, is almost certainly RAS to CAS delay time. Every memory module I've had, this has been the first that needed an increase.

after looking at pdp's web page i dont see any of their enhance latency or low latency memory being tested to run at 2.5, everthing i can find indicated all tests ar at 2.6v

I have 3 sticks of this and all were individualy purched 2 are rev 1.0 and 1 is 1.1 they overclock and preform identical. The only diffrence is the color of the heat spreader and the size of the resistors on the pcb.

Actually one of the 1.0's outpreforms the 1.1 in overclocking.

My roommate bought of gig of this ram, he put it in his DFI Infinity and it refuses to be prime stable at the advertised specs. he has to run it at CAS 2.5.

Buyer beware...
