I was pretty happy with that, considering its $40 RAM now. I did have to relax the timings a notch to 7-3-3-2.5 but for cheap ram I'm damn impressed. 8RDA+ is very nice.

Alkyhauler, you should be able to do more than that.
I have a 1700+xp with pc2700 sammy and seem very stable at 11 x 190 on air cooling @ 1.7v
this ram is unbelievable for $78 = 512mb

I haven't started up on the CPU yet. I just wanted to get the FSB stable first. Idle temp right now is 40c so I am definitely looking to get more out of it. I just installed the 8RDA+ this weekend and I had to get everything else sorted out before I started OC'ing.

You have more headroom with the ram I think. With my stick of Samsung 2700 im at 212 fsb with **** timings though, but I'm in no position to complain

Are you guys running ramsinks? At cas2 I can't do much more than 166mhz (and for while, for some reason, couldn't even do that) and forget about 180. At 180 I had to do 2.5 3/6/3. Either bus setting, I have to disable 1t command, and have the 'speed setting' (what the heck is that, anyway? the refresh command?) set to 'normal.' I've tried voltage increases, didn't help.

The sammy 2700 is oc'able to 200+- cas 2.5 (many reported).
Just curious, do you run 1 module, 2 modules, single channel or dual channel.
