Right now i have 2x512mb ddr500 Mushkin ram, it is terrible first of all, the stock speeds are at 200fsb, so that means its really not ddr500, and second of all it hardly runs at 250fsb. 1:1 with cpu. I have p4p800 mobo and 2.4c at 250fsb. And i was thinking about rmaing it back to newegg. And getting some of that new ram that has the tccd chipsets on it. The only reason this ram is crappy is because i run my cpu fine at 250fsb, but when it comes to running my ram at that speed, it becomes a hole new story. Because i have to run it at 2.85v to be stable, well not get any errors on prime95. And when im playing Desert combat i see artifacts, like spikes flying off the grenades, and the guns. And its either my ram or my vcard. either way im returning the ram. And the reason i know its my ram is because
when i leave it at 200fsb it has no artifacts. And another thing happens that is really bad, and that is when im playing that game, the map dispeers and it turns all tan colored. So either thats the game bugging out, or its my ram, or my vcard. I have a fx 5200 128mb. Which i shortly replacing with a ti 4200 128mb. So no worries there.
