I kinda disregard RAM quite a lot and rescently iv been pushing my timings down and i wanna see what u guys think of these. Im running the following:

1x512MB Kingston Value RAM PC2700
1x256MB PNY Value RAM PC2700

I have had them running at 221MHz FSB when i put them in my Unlocked Duron Processor (unfortunatly i did not take a SS of it stupidly so your going to have to trust me)

Right now im pushing timings of 5-2-2-2 @ 177MHz FSB.

How good is that?

I'd say that is pretty darn good for value ram rated at 166MHz and much slower timings. Have you tested them to make sure you are not generating any errors?

Well i cant go any lower than x-2-2-2
CAS Relay is the x right ?

I guess i could try pushing 4 on it

oh and btw this is using 2.6v too! Not even 2.7
