With Winbond no longer manufacturing BH-5/6 RAM ICs, the days of running 250MHz with 2-2-2-x timings, in a brand new system, is only a faint memory (no pun intended) overclockers continue to share. As BH-5/6 is non-existent with memory manufacturers now, one of the new alternatives is TCCD from Samsung. Samsung TCCD chips can't scale linearly with voltage at 2-2-2-x like Winbond chips of a generation past; which means more voltage doesn't mean more FSB on the TCCD chips. However, TCCD is still a good alternative and has its own advantages. The memory up for testing in this review is Corsair's new XMS XPERT TWINXP1024-3200XL.
