    2x 512 sticks of SUPPOSED Kingston Hyper-X BH-5

    noxxiouswon was the Seller on September 29, 2004 Other/Unknown

    The seller sold me 2 sticks of RAM which he claimed were Kingston Hyper-X PC3000 with rebranded BH-5 chips. The RAM I recieved didn't have heat spreaders, so I have no way of proving that they are Hyper-X. By selling me sticks without Heatspreaders he voided their warranty. He did NOT inform me that they had no Heatspreaders.

    He claimed that they would run tight 2-2-2 timings at 222MHz with 2.85v and said he was sure they would hit 250+MHz with higher voltage. I cannot even run a single stick at 200 MHz with tight 2-2-2 timings with 3.3v.

    Worst of all, when I displayed ANY displeasure with what I had purchased, he told me that it was my tough luck, and it must be my fault. I understand that he has lots of good feedback, but he DOES NOT stand behind his promises or merchandise. He is ignoring my emails, and I haven't heard from him in almost 2 weeks as of this posting.

    BEWARE!!!!!

    Response from HKPolice
    1) Kingston warranty is only valid for the original owner, so any coverage would of been voided anyways since I was not the original owner.

    2) I WAS able to run 222Mhz @ 2-2-2-5 timings on my IC7-G, I could prove it if he ships them back, I'll even pay for the shipping. They are relabled DW-45 week ~4 chips which are guarenteed BH5 link: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/overclocking/AMD/memory/95

    3) This newbie obviously has problems with his DFI board, and he didn't even TRY to test in another board. I did NOT tell him "tough luck" I was giving him tips on how to run it PROPERLY. Overclocking is trial and error, there are NO guarentees. He obviously does not understand this.

    4) DO NOT Sell this person ANY overclocking enthusiast items because he will blame you for everything if anything goes wrong.
