RGone Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 Actually it has gone down about $11.00 since the beginning of the weekend. Good stuff too is what I see all the time and certainly good service.

Senzo Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 for the Lanparty NF3 250 is it better to run with 1 stick of 1gb ram then two 512's? I heard it was better performance wise. I also have a pair of 2x256 OCZ 3700 EB's that I am looking to upgrade to 1gb for this board. Since they are out of manufacture and hard to get what would be comparible? Mushkin Hi Perf LII V2?

tristancarton Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 depends on the 512 sticks but generally no. 2x512 of tccd or utt chips will kick the crap out of the best 1 gig stick available. for the Lanparty NF3 250 is it better to run with 1 stick of 1gb ram then two 512's?

danny5 Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 You will get somewhat higher FSB with a single stick, but dual channel is better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny5 Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 What are yalls prime 95 results? Depends how high the ghz is, lol. Pass or fail. usually Prime is used to check the CPU, although it will pick up errors caused by other hardware. Memtest86 is the one you will use to test for memory, but that one too, will show errors if there is a CPU problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memtest86 is the one you will use to test for memory, but that one too, will show errors if there is a CPU problem. Well, that completely clears up the issue. Memtest is a strict memory related test. The pressure is on the RAM and the memory controller. It simply writes too and reads from the memory compairing the output to the input. prime95 stresses the entire computational chain from CPU to RAM.

dstoff Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I'm using 2x512 Geil ultra platinum PC3200 that's worked great. http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp...N82E16820144513 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
