Corsair XMS PC3200C2 is the best bet at around 8K. It has Winbond BH-5 in the newer revisions.

OCZ is not present in Inida. what warranty will I get?

Also,tell ram that my motherboard supports and is in the manual.

Also,where do you dinf corsair xms for 8k?
isn’t it for 12-13k?

5

Warranty valid in US.

Post the list and we’ll recommend the suitable RAM.

6

The 3200XL is 12K, 3200C2 is 8K.

7

I think OCZ is your best bet, BTW Masky, PM me the price and how old the RAM is…

8

u’ll have to send the RAMto US to claim warranty.

9

what is the diff b/w c2 and xms

10

C2 is winbond BH-5 chips, XL is Samsung TCCD chips.

11

C2 is winbond ICs, XL is samsung TCCD

12

Don’t offer me second hand ram nor ram that I can not claim warranty in Delhi.

Tell me shop,price,details,city,no. ph,lateincies ,warranty and compatibility of :
2 X 512mb ddr 400/533 hynix d43 dual ch
1gb in dual ch ddr 400/533 corsair 3200C2
1gb X 2 ddr 400 / 533 dual ch

13

Techboy your best bet is Hynix D43.
BH-5 or any other winbond chip will need higher voltages to overclock or operate at high freq.

14

then which city do u want warranty in? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

15

I want to claim warranty in Delhi.
Also where do I get d43 ram moduels,cost,latencies,shop no etc.
Can’t I have it box packed.

Also,how does it matter if I need higher voltages?

Also,can I use ddr 533 ?

16

BH-5 usually at its best when you provide say more than 3v.
Your A8N e can only support upto 3V.
And no you dont get Hynix boxed pack these days.
It comes in OEM packaging.
I dont know much about Delhi but PM guys who stay in Delhi they must be knowing the dealers in Delhi.

17

Yes, my boy you are correct! Corsair is the way to go.

@techboy: If you’re buying it from abroad then Corsair XMS 1GB with latencies 2-3-3-6 and a silver heatspreader si available for 121$ on zipzoomfly. That’s only 5,300 odd bucks. The exact model number is Corsair twinx1024-3200c2pt (512x2).
If you want lower latencies then the XL or Pro series but these will be a lot more costly.

Go here for a price listing

Incidentally, for those who’re tolkien fans over here, did any of you know where the company Corsair got it’s name from?
the men of the East, further south of Mordor were called the Corsairs

18

Yeah but the company got its name from the literal meaning of corsair which is a pirate ship. Even their logo is that of a ship.

Hynix D43 is for 2300 with 3 years warranty.Digital IT Solutions,207,Skipper corner,88,NP.

guys guys.
Understand this thing. He has been asking this questions since forever.
The corsair XMX PC3200c2 is winbond UTT. To run these at low latecies he will need to give it something in range of 3.1-3.2v
THis is not possible on A8N-E. and Winbond suck at higher latecies.
It has max 3V for Vdimm.
The XL on other hand is tccd but costs 14K.
He is not getting it from abroad, he wants it here.
To run masky’s RAM he will need to vmod his mobo. I dont know if he is experiened enough to do that or he even want to do that.

Those options gone the next is D43 and new Twinmos.
Twinmos POwerchip overclocks to 250Mhz at 3-4-4-8 at 3V.
SO does the Hynix D43.
Get any one of these.
