Single Sided 512MB DDR
I'm considering buying an Asus K8V-X motherboard for an 2800+ CPU. The
memory configurations listed in the users manual for this board state that memory will only run at 400 Mhz when all the memory sticks are single sided. But, the qualified vendor list doesn't list any qualified single sided 512 MB sticks. Is anyobdy running this board with 512MB single sided memory? If so, what brand and part number? I'm considering the Kingston KVR400X64C3AK2/512 and would like to know if this is going to run at 400 Mhz before I sink the coin into this. Thx -K2 |

I happen to own the other K8V-X mobo :-)
double sided are 64 x 64 single sided 128 x 64... Therefore at present easier and cheaper to manufactuer double sided... Anyone put me right? When bought it had a stick of 512MB VDATA Ok is was set up using the default auto settings @ 200MHz I then got 2X 512MB Ballistix PC3200 (I've used Crucial for many years). Without much effort memory at 2.8v, 220MHz bus.and still 2-2-2-8 CPU 3200 (2.2GHz STD) now at 2.42GHZ Moral is get good RAM in first place Rag-Man "Wilf Brim" wrote in message ...

I've looked, I KNOW the DIMMS with "..AK2" are single sided. I'm asking if anyone is running this board with any 512 MB single sided DIMMS. Thanks for nothing . . . I guess it is true what they say about you. |

I plan on filling the first two of three banks with identical 512 MB sticks - double or single sided TBD. Thx -K2 |

Why not list some (or any for that matter ) performance specifications that prospective DIMMS must meet and be done with it? So that if you ask for support in regards to a chip that doesn't work, they can point to this list and tell you to get one of these |
