    Talking Returned Corsiar Dominator 1066*memtest passed


    I'm selling Corsair Dominator ddr2 1066 4gb (2x2gb)

    The sticks were ordered and returned by an istoryan because he claims one stick is defective.

    I tested the stick and it was OK. I then tested two sticks and they were OK. I tested them in two different systems; in one system i made one pass, in the other system i made two passes. Memtested with a memtest bootable cd. stick was tested one by one and tested in the first slot near the proc.

    IMHO, in my years of tinkering around, i have never seen mem that passed memtest with so many passes and were bad sticks; if you have a different experience please let me know. I think the problem was his system as there are so many things that can affect a stable system(board, bios settings, etc) especially with high performance systems and if testing within windows.

    The sticks were delivered to him last Saturday. I got them back yesterday so you will have an idea of approximately how long they were with him.

    As with all my other items from now on, I have to issue a disclaimer already:
    1) System Incompatibility is not my RESPONSIBILITY; it is your job to make sure that your system is compatible with the parts and that you have researched and have had experience in tweaking your system.
    2) Because of this incident, I claim the right to sell to whomever I choose.


    Price for this item drops from Php 5,550 to 5,150

    400 pesos off.

    Please lang ayaw na hanyoa. I know I sell the cheapest dominator here and in tpc.

    Salamat

    actually i clarified it because i thought ning fail sa iyang system ang usa ka stick niya using memtest in dos bootable cd mode. when i asked him again he said it did not fail in memtest diay but failed in windows using occt,pcmark, etc.

    this is why i think the problem is with his system and settings setup. even memtest in dos mode actually stresses out the cpu and board even in default optimized bios settings. so dili ko katuo nga there's something wrong with the ram.

    if i rma this, corsair will laugh at me and will let me pay for the shipping because there's nothing wrong with it using memtest.

    in that case the problem might be in the mobo...basin naa problem accessing higher addresses sa ram...don't send that to Corsair, aside from brushing u aside for claiming something defective when it ain't...samot ka kalugi kai back&forth bayad nimo shipping cost
