poor guy stuck in the past with bad ram.. suggestions?

Kamel said:

alright, everyone seems to have DDR2 now, so finding replacement performance ram for my aging 32 bit system has seemed to be quite a chore. when i was caught up with times last the best ram going was TCCD. do they still sell this? any suggestions on a particular unit?

as always, the cheaper the better, but i must have regular DDR ram that can do 250mhz somehow. good timings are always great, but it's important i can get 250mhz out of it.

supplying the ram with active cooling is no problem. my mobo can supply 3.3 volts, but i try not to go past 3.2 since 3.3 is straight off of the rail and not regulated by the motherboard.

any suggestions would be very very very much so appreciated.

Kamel,

Look at these:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820220033

They are rated at PC3200 to PC4200 if you can give them enough vdimm which obviously you can. As of April this year they were still TCCD.

since i'm going to be buying ram i might as well use that as an excuse to upgrade >:]

you believe the 2x1gb version is the same ram, or should i stick with the trusty 512x2?

and thanks for the pm madman, i'll definitely consider
