When will 512 meg chips of PC2400 be out?

What kind of pc2400 DDR in 256 meg chips are you guys having luck with? I got some Crucial pc 2100 and it is not cutting the cheese at cas2.
 
when DDR SDRAM chips hit 512 megabit densities, is when you'll see 512 meg DDR SDRAM sticks at most frequencies.

I think only recently 256 megabit chips have become more common.. that is, 32 megs per chip. I know someone on this forum had a 128 meg stick with only 4 chips on it.

I have a 256 meg PC133 stick of SDRAM, it has I think 16 chips, 8 on each side. so that means that each chip has 16 megs on it.. this stuff was ultra cheap though (7.5 ns, runs CAS 2 fine with 133mhz, probably wouldn't do so well with higher frequencies).
 


<< That's because it's not rated CAS2. >>



And your point is?

I dont expect it to run cas2 @ 150ish, but it can and does happen with my board (epox 8k7-a). I was hopin for a good chip. I will prolly *gay my current chip and see if I can get something better.

You were hoping that you could run a nice solid peice of RAM out of it's spec, and now that it doesn't work you are pissed? Yeah..

No not pissed at all, but looking for another stick of ram to try... do you even read my posts?

If I buy ram rated at cas 2.5 133 mhz, and it runs 2.5 133 mhz I am happy. If it goes higher thats nice. If not, I either suck it up or sell and get something else. I do not see myself as bitching in any form.
