"Capable of runing at 400mhz with timing 2-3-3-6 and way up to 500MHZ with timing 2-3-3-8 when you change Voltage"

That sounds kind of funny. When you change voltage. lol, they are getting too technical for me these days

Honestly, I don't know what to make of it. I would need more details to see if it's UTT. I'll look around for more information on this ram.

Yeah i know .They tell you just enough to get you curious and hope you will buy it and take a chance.

NinjaZX6R · Jun 19, 2005

Well, it did get me thinking though. I don't think TCCD can do 250mhz at cas 2 and neither can tcc5. Maybe on some rare occasions, but not enough for them to market it as that. I think that leaves us with Micron -5B G or UTT. What do you think? Guess we would have to know at WHAT voltage it can do 250mhz at. Even at 2-3-3 it's going to take over 3 volts to get UTT to do it.

Hmm maybe ill try it..lol

could be bh-die stuff..... certainly in the right price range.....

Super Nade · Jul 4, 2005

Hang on folks, I'mve e-mailed Patriot about this. Let us see what they have to say.

amer1337 · Jul 4, 2005

is that the companys way of kinda hinting at you to overclock it?

CCUABIDExORxDIE · Jul 4, 2005

pretty sure it hasta be UTT, -5b G's cant do this, and even if they could, you need phase change for those sticks cause they get soo hot!

I suggest actually emailing them rather than filling out the form on their website. I used the form to ask for more info on their 2-3-2 1GB sticks about a month ago, and never heard a thing. I also tried to join their forum, but it wasn't possible. Looks like their website is an alpha, and they don't really care what happens to messages to tech support that come through it.

someone buy the ram!
damn it, where are those bottomless-wallet people when you need them?
*goes off*
hey, oppainter, we got some red candy for you!

Curiouser and curiouser...

I followed the manufactuer link from Newegg's page and wound up here:
http://www.patriotmem.com/products/groupdetailp.jsp?prodgroupid=23&prodline=2&group=PC4000&catid=1
Which is actually the page for 3-4-4-8 PDC1G4000ELK, rather than this new "power series" RAM. I poked around on Patriot's site a little but didn't find anything about the power series there either. Seems it's so new even PDP doesn't know about it yet.

I've dealt with this fellow. You should get a response in a week

Well,

I got a response in less than a day (switched the order of messages for consistency) :thup:

Subject: A few questions..

Hello William,

I have two quick questions.

1.Is the XBLK still TCCD or have you switched to TCC5 binned appropriately? I was thinking of picking up another gig of XBLK (current set runs DDR600 2.5-3-4-x-1T). If it is TCC5, can I expect the same performance as TCCD? I know that essentially the dies are the same, but I'm not sure if you guys bin it like OCZ?

2.Could you tell me what chips are on this RAM?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820220061

From the description about voltage, I'm guessing it may be UTT or Micron. Also, what voltage are these modules warrentied for?

Thanks a lot.

Response:

Hi ,

Currently the XBLK are still using Samsung TCCD, so there's nothing to
worry about.

As far as the Power Series that is sold at Newegg, they are indeed UTT
chips that can handle extreme voltage. We will warranty these memory
modules for the life of them regardless of the voltage.

Hope this help.

Best regards,

Isn't that freaking awesome, go on burn it at 15V..

? All you high voltage fellows..have fun!

gigabit · Jul 5, 2005

Sweet

HousERaT · Jul 5, 2005

Regardless of voltage? Wow.... those folks are brave...... My first impression is supported by the warranty...... I maintain these are bh-die chips.....

gigabit · Jul 5, 2005

So you think they are worth a try?

IrishAssassin · Jul 5, 2005

:| Regardless of voltage, that is a really good warranty indeed.

NinjaZX6R · Jul 5, 2005

I'll be a lab rat.....ordering now.

Super Nade · Jul 5, 2005

Absolutely!

I'd get them if I had the $'s

Reefa_madness.....would you take one for the team?

Ninja...keep me posted on how this goes. I have the original e-mail(s) for proof.
