    Yeah, I'd all over these myself I think. I'm stuck in DDR2-533 mode. I wonder if the SPD will drive the BIOS to automatically clock things up? Probably depends on the notebook...

    I am sure you would know much better than me Davo but the way I look at it, about 90% of notebooks out there probably will not clock things up because of the very un-customizable BIOSes that pretty much let you set the time and call it a day.

     

    However I am running 667mhz memory right now but DID find that my notebook has support for 800mhz memory (they were very general so I don't know if it means it'll automatically downclock it to 667 or what) but either way it made my day :) If I didn't just buy a new tv i would love grabbing a pair of these!
