TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Unknown timings, they only know the CAS spec, and not very fast

NO ERRORS at ALL in MemTest nor Windows Memory Diag's. That's a GOOD thing. Stable too. Mine had Micron chips. Buffalo's site says they can have Micron, Samsung or Hynix.

Poor performance, apparently flaky SPD chip, and not even Buffalo know what the COMPLETE memory timings are!

Benchmark programs report it at running at only 166mhz instead of 200mhz (yes, it's set correctly in the BIOS). So its low performance in benchmarks is either due to it really running at only 166mhz, or, it's just "slow" memory.

Most new mobos' BIOS' have many other settings other than CAS (CL). Buffalo doesn't even know what they are! So you have to set this area in a mobo's BIOS to Auto, and I fear that will not be correct since the "SPD" tab on programs like AIDA32, CPUz, etc., are grayed out! They can't even read the modules' SPD chip specs. (Mobo was a Biostar P4M80-M7, VIA P4M800 chipset).
