DDR500 and a A New Goal...

[Spanko]

According to this Kingston is releasing PC4000(DDR500) ram.

There is also a press release about it at hardocp. I am wondering what AMD mobos are capable of 500mhz Sync Dual Channel. Im thinking maybe a 8rda3+ at 2.0 VDD, or a modded NF7-S Rev2 @ 2.0 VDD? I wonder how many people will get a tbred b or a barton to 500mhz and 100% Stable. My wallet is about to get ransacked :D

I will be tring my best to get to 500ddr or 250fsb with a tbred b 1700 or 2100 and a abit along with some winbond ram and hyperx3500. But if I hit 230fsb I'll be happy. If not i'll be modding.

I've already looked into the vdd, vdimm, psu, and chip mod's I will be doing to try and reach this goal.

Whew..... $112 per module! Good to see that ram and apparently you can "buy now", but BIG $$$. They are following Corsairs lead with relaxed timings:

500MHz (PC4000) 3-4-4-8-1 (CAS Latency 3)

i could run my ocz pc3700 gold with 1:1 and fsb 255 stable, thats DDR 510.

[zabomb4163]

at what timings though?

[Chuck232]

Well, on Intel boards, there's nothing less than 3-4-4-8... :p

I ran my OCZ gold at 254Mhz 1:1 with 6-3-3 cl2.5 timings at only 2.72V

it wouldnt be hard at all, i dont think


just lower the multiplier, and upp the fsb


or change the divider


i had my corsair ddr400 at 416 mhz earlier i think it was 416 give or take

on my nf7-s 2.0

I think OCZ is still on top of the game.. They released DDR 500 with much tighter timings than Kingston's, and the OCZ PC4200 is coming!

yes the OCZ ddr500 is ran at cas 2.5, faster than ALL the others
