I have a chance to get a gig of pc 2700 Infineon ram. But i'm wondering how stable is it at high fsb's. As of now i have 512megs of Corsair 3200. My buddy said he can get 160fsb, with max settings on a dual ddr board with his infineon ram, but i wants to get 167fsb, think i should go for this gig of ram or stick with my 512megs??

BTW i have a P4 2.4Ghz (533) cpu and an Asus P4PE board

well, its rated at 166fsb if its real 2700. the max settings might be a little trickier but thats what vdimm adjustment is for

depends on if your buddy is usi9ng ddimm adjustments if he isn't then get it it will meet your need easily. if he is using the vdimm adj. then you won't get there.

im running 2 sticks of the infineon as we speak. @2.7 vdimm im able to run them at 176 mhz tightest timings. it would probably do more but my motherboard wont go over 176 no matter what memory i put in it.

im running Kingston with Infineon chips at 180 and CAS 2 with lowest timings while it is rated at 166 and cas 2.5. for some reason i feel im lucky, and all this is at default vdimm.
