OK I am most likely going to buy some RAM this week. I have narrowed my choice down to the two products in the thread title. As many of you know already, the 222 special is made with picked BH6 chips that are supposed to go down to 2-2-2. However, the pack that I am looking at is going to cost $100 more than the level 1 product that will do 2-3-2.
If there is any real difference, I will not see it until I get my new mobo and proc probably next month but I am wondering if the difference will be worth the c-note when I get to that point. Of course I did some searching and to no great surprise what I found was people who are having issues with the 222 product.
The closest that I got to a positive comment was one guy who had paid for the 222 product and received a stick with BH5 chips. That is good news for him but this late in the BH5 game my c-note would probably be better spent at a casino. I would assume that if I buy 222 special at this point I would get BH6 chips.
I am not overly worried about the c-note if the 222 special actually is a better product but I would rather save it if it will not make that much difference after I am done with this round of upgrading. It is true that I can buy the cheaper RAM and up my voltage but that is not what I am asking. What I am after is how the 222 special product performs at stock compared to the level 1 product.
