7% bing also.


so 7% should probably cover tax for most of you, and it would be quite a bit cheaper than newegg etc.

not quite the $9 2gb 533's that did 800 @ 2.0v, but as good a price on solid memory as you're going to get these days... and these will probably to 1066...

interesting... i was looking for specs and found these at provantage for #32.74 a stick + ship...

and 34.52 shipped from costcentral...

http://www.costcentral.com/proddetail/HP_Memory/450260S21/Q37260/

add in antonline (they're out of stock on it) and it's all the guys who had the $9 deal way back when...

hp must clean out their closets and ship crates of this stuff to these guys to dump...

and it comes with a rocking 1 year warranty!!!

Are these specific for HP computers? This might not be a deal here.

Waitasec, read the specs at CostCentral. These are ECC, but unbuffered! Semi-rare, but should work in AMD rigs. Those Biostar A760G M2+ boards that Microcenter is bundling with CPUs actually have BIOS support for ECC.

Does anyone know if ECC DIMMs would work in systems that don't support ECC? (ie. are the extra ECC bits just ignored?) Or does the BIOS check for ECC DIMMs, and explictly refuse to support them at all if the board wasn't designed for ECC?

If its unbuffered it will work in any system. Ecc will turn off if the board doesn't support it, it just doesn't use that 9th chip per side of ram at least in my experience.

and if these are anything like the $9 hp deal, they're very solid pieces of memory... i bought a bunch of that stuff and have had 0 problems with any of it... all of it running 800 @ 2.0v, no heatspreader...

i'm gonna order a couple sticks from costcentral, 'cuz that's cheapest for me...

I bought a bunch of those too and they all ran great. If I didn't still have a couple of $20 4GB Fry's kits I'd pick up a couple of these.

All of my HP sticks from that old deal did 1000 at 2.0 with a tad of air moving over em.

Short warranty bit me. I had one of those $9 1G HP sticks fail on stock volts. The other 11 are still fine. IIRC they had 90 day warranties, stretched to a year if they were sold with HP systems. Lifetime warranty has come in handy with Corsair and PNY memory purchases.
Edit: forgot to say this is a good non-rebate deal.

I had a friend order 10 from ProVantage for me. It was showing 42 in stock when he ordered, but now when I refreshed the page it's showing 2 in stock.

Which, coincidentally, CostCentral is also showing 2 in stock.

Do you think that both CostCentral and ProVantage show stock from their distributer, and possibly ProVantage just didn't update their listing as fast, so when they showed 42, they really only had 2 in stock? IOW, am I going to get my order, do you think?

Edit: I recieved three from ProVantage, the other 7 are backordered. So I ordered 10 from CostCentral, they were showing 11 in stock.

Edit: They've been showing 11 in stock all weekend, even after I ordered 10. So I guess their stock numbers don't decrease, until a human looks at the order and approves it.
