TwinMOS Winbond CH-5

from the review:

TwinMOS PC3200 DDR400 using Winbond CH-5 memory chips is an excellent overclocker indeed reaching 244Mhz FSB (DDR488) at 2.9V VDIMM. Again, there is no improvement at all when you lower the memory timings to 2-3-2-7 or 2.5-3-3-7 and memory performance isn't really affected much either with less aggressive timings. Similarly, VDIMM voltage played an important role in the memory stability under high FSB and you can get almost 10Mhz difference with just 0.2V increase.

 
244 MHz @ 2.9v.. pretty nice.. but that's some high memory voltage though :Q

Looks quite promising.. I'm tempted to buy yet another pair to give it a try.. though my bills are screaming at me not to 😀
 
might have to redo my vdd mod though... i blew air on it a while ago and it may have blown off my pencil lead...

oh well!

will try again

One thing I've learned with pencil modding resistors: put a piece of electrical tape or similar over the resistor to keep it from deteriorating.

I feel for ya, even when I knew covering it was important after many times of reapplying, I still left 'em naked, picked on by airflow. After a while I figured I'd spent more effort reapplying than covering them up so now I cover them every time 🙂

ummm?? u still need to do the Vdd mod with the nf7-s?

For the 2.0 revision... I don't think it needs a mod with the A1/C1 revision northbridge because they go well above 200MHz at default (1.6) voltage, but older revs definitely need some modding for >210MHz and it's required when running dual channel mode over that because 1.7v isn't enough in most cases.
 
On the PC3700 it says it comes with 4.3ns chips. I assume this is previously tested OC'd 5ns chips? And im very excited about the new CH-5/4 chips that should be hitting the market.
 
I've ordered all my TwinMOS modules from them.. for the most part their service is great. The only thing that bugs me is that they take quite a bit of time to answer my emails.

It's coming out soon. It's rumored to be manufactured at present, and just not out in the market.

i have the CH whitepapers, and there's nothing there mentioning CH-4
but we may just see a new revsion with the CH-4's
yum, 250 x 10😀

that'd be fun 🙂

or eve 10 x 242 would be fun....

sheesh... if this ram could do 10 x 240... that'd be amazing 🙂 .. and hopefully it will be able to
 
How high do you think this ram can go in dual? I have 2x512 hyperx pc3500 in my 8RDA+ that will do 215 FSB in singls channel, but only 190 in dual. If this will get me to 215 or higher in dual, I will pop out the old mastercard and have some sent out! 🙂
