Hey boys.. now this just floors me!

I went to Office Max this AM and got 4 x 256mb 2100ddr Kingston ValuRam dimms. NOt expecting much, because they were free after rebate. But to my amazement, this is what I found so far:

400fsb - booted into windows no problem
425fsb - same!
440fsb - booted right up and ran several 3dapps. I was just shocked!

This ram was rated for 266 and I ran it at 480! That was at 2.5-4-4-8 and 2.85 vdimm.

They are in my kids box (DFI NF2) at the moment running 400ddr at 2-3-3-6 and 2.8vdimm!

I am laughing my head off!

Similar to what I'm getting with this Centon PC3200 512MB dual channel set.

The pair will run stable up to DDR520 at 2,4,4,7 with 3.0 Vdimm on a P4C800 Dlx. I have them running at DDR466 (291 FSB 5:4) 2,3,3,7. They'll oc to 510 stable at 2,3,3,7.
