PC4000 or DDR466 with CAS of 2.0

Corsair has let me down, and I can't find any sticks for sale that say they will run with a cas of 2.0 at 233mhz(466ddr)

So anybody here had good luck with any to hit that speed with low latency?
 
ooops 466 is 3700, my bad. Not sure I want to go the way of OCZ.


Wondering if some platnuim series GEIL for ddr500 at cas 2.5 would hit 2.0 at a lower speed.

Thanks for the info.
 
what motherboard do you have? My mushkin pc3500 lvl2 black (best ram in the world imho, and many others) wil do 534mhz 2-2-2-5 3.4volts and 466 2-2-2-5 stock volts.
 
my experience has been with all things equal ie: Good pcb adequate memory design etc, the most important thing is the chips themselves.. If u can find some memory such as the kingston valuram with bh6 chips and do a volt mod,you can sometimes get 235-240+ with very inexpensive but quality built ram. for instance my kinsgton valueram with the bh6 chips runs about 210-215 at 2.8v it runs 230+ at 3.1v. this is at @2-2-2-5. i got these sticks for 50.00(2x256) with a rebate at bb.

if u want something that runs real hi fsb. get the kingston vr with the bt-d43 chips they will run around 260 @ either 3-4-4-8 or 2.5-4-4-7. either way u have pc3700 or pc 4100 for cheap...

:eek: Where did you get that marvel of a processor? You lucky SOB :D Mine does 3.60 but is unstable :( . Right now, I run it at 3.35GHz at 1:1 ratio 2.5-3-3-7. I hope to be able to find a P4 that will be able to do 250FSB, at least.

Ah, and bump for the original thread, sorry.
