What about these HERE or HERE

 

[GoLLuM4444]

As I said I already have some 3200 but the 3500 clocks better. Also I'd rather not pay shipping from US (more than £75 total too). Are you selling your spare stick or not?

Keeping it mate, it clocks high & if one of the new ones is crap I can still use it!!!

i had a stick of that but it blew up when a psu went a friend of mine has a gig of the stuff tho. he runs it at 2-2-2-5i belive and at about 250fsb.

 

[GoLLuM4444]

Only 250? - even my 3200 does 265 2-2-2-6 and my 512 of 3500 does about 275 2-2-2-6 (or will with some burn in).

Oops..Forgot to update my attempt at freezing memory...didnt work But thats not to say it wont work for Livin...his is at least working

 

[LiViNgL@RgE]

Tried freezing the memory & basically it didn't do nothing!!!!! Tried it twice no difference..... Can anyone get LN2, i'll freeze the hell out of em.....

The fauly stick I got off ebay is faulty because it has 6 smd capacitors missing(The other guy used a screw driver to get the spreaders off..... What a KN*B)

On a side not, just won another set on ebay for $146 inc delivery(About £84)

I love Ebay!!!!!!

Feezing does work..... sort of??

Okay I tried this and I am now trying to burn my ram in a 272Mhz

100 errors a pass on test 8 only now, all other test are error free (20 passes)

Before the freezer I ws benchable at 270 (errors on test 5) but rock solid stable at 268 - so it looks as though it does work to a point.

So to help freeze it a bit better I have orderd some anti static freeze spray from RS which will cool it down to minus 51 degrees - hopefully cool enough to get to the magical 275 mhz @ 2-2-2-6.
