Is it just me, or is OCZ always releasing some crazy overclocking memory? I remember when they announced the Gold PC3200 VX and everyone went nuts trying to figure out what chips were used. I had an idea that it would be Winbond, but since Winbond officially announced they were leaving the DRAM market, I threw that guess out the window. It turned out that Winbond chips really were used underneath those shiny gold heatspreaders. Although the Gold PC3200 VX is rated to run 2-3-3-8 with 2.6v, many overclockers have found that it was able to scale rather nicely with increased voltage. With the DFI Ultra-D motherboard, many have pumped as much as 3.6v into those sticks and hit beyond 250MHZ. What's really interesting is that the die inside the IC's are based on the same processing as the old CH5 chips. These new ones are called Winbond UTT CH5. We know that the Gold VX are great overclockers if you can supply the voltage, so what's the point of the new release of the Gold PC3200?
