Can you tell me what mainboard you are using? I can probably ask one of our tech's for you before the weekend hits.

Oh, sorry. It's for a system that I'm going to build. I'm thinking about getting a ASUS P4P800 or a ABIT IC7. I was hoping to overclock a P4 2.8C to 3.5GHz while keeping the ram at 1:1.

My ram does 255Mhz max at 1:1 stable using 2.7V and 6-3-3 cl2.5 timings. Cas 2 is good upuntill 251Mhz

I'm not knocking OCZ because I use their memory myself in one of my PCs, but after reading this article, it does make me wonder if I will buy their products again. I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

Basically that review was wirtten by a mushkin employee. Just remember that nowhere did OCZ claim to make thier own chips for the gold ram

if all your information is as reliable as the one about the author of the article being a Mushkin employee, you might as well shoot yourself.
It is getting kind of boring reading the same crap all over again from people who have absolutely no clue what they are talking about, neither on a technical level nor on whatever other issues they refer to.
On a different thread, there was even somebody calling Mushkin and asking for a Mr. Shoulet ... now, where did that name come from? I guess somebody had either a bad dream or else smoked the wrong stuff...

Firstly LS is one amazing site that I have learned so much from. I was not nocking the site but from at least 4 different sources I had heard that review was done by a guy that worked for mushkin.
That wasn't the point of my post though. I wanted to show people that OCZ had never claimed to make thier own IC's for the gold ram. So before people went all nuts about seeing the sammy IC's I wanted to post that. No matter what chips are on it you can't deny it's the fastest ram you can get.
Here is the document

Yep, funny how that goes, the principles of plurality. Like 10 billion flies can't be wrong
LOL
Also keep in mind that the disclosure was never done on the OCZ site until the article, rather it was posted on the Xtreme Systems forums only.
A quick look at the article and the author would have certainly cleared the issue, regardless of how many "flies" vouch for the opposite.

That really doesn't count, what counts is the product page of the manufacturer. Anybody can post some stuff somewhere and then claim that there was a disclosure of the facts.
Unfortunately, this is becoming a habit even with major corporations that "leak" their plans of closing an entire division of their operations in the "Timbuktu Post" where they can be sure nobody will read it but they fulfill their obligation of public disclosure for e.g. the board of directors.
With product, the situation is very simple, the only thing that counts is the product specs on the company website, everything else is null and void.
I found it funny that Ryan emailed me stating that the true nature of the chips had been disclosed a week prior to the article. No, it was not disclosed, it was leaked, and it's as simple as that.
Those issues are really the stuff that hurts OCZ, that and the stuff that they have been spreading "rumors" about other people AGAINST better knowledge like: "I was told by OZC that LostCircuits belongs to Mushkin".
Paleeese... crawl back under the rock...
