i know i should know this

[chamblah]

but can some one explain this to me and how it pretains to general stability and overclocking? i know most of what it is but only in general terms. i'd like a bit more detailed info.

DDR PC2100 • CL=2.5 • Unbuffered • Non-parity • 7.5ns • 2.5V


thanks in advance:D

Who is the manufacturer of this memory? That will have about as much to do with it's overclockability as anything.

looks like cruical i think..

yeah it's crucial. but that's not the part i'm worried about. i know crucial makes good ram.

i'm just wanting things like unbuffered, non-parity, what the speed of 7.5ns is refering to, etc... explained in a bit more detail.

pc2100 means you have to be 21 or older to legally own this in the US;

CL2.5 mean crustacean test lateral- they test it for strength in a machine that looks like a crab's claw;

unbuffered means at least 65 out of 100 people will feel painful side-effects from ingesting the individual chips;

non-parity means it won't recycle well by slicing up the individual chips (paring)

-7.5ns mean it's not safe to stand within 7.5 meters of the module unless it's grounded.

2.5v means it's version 2.5 of the design.

Just Kidding!!!!
