im hearing mixed replies about these working well with intel based systems. i mean if you can get them the required voltage they should work at the specified speeds? right??? anyone got any ideas. thnx

these work well in any PC but more so for AMD 64's since the on-die memory controller loves lower latencies. Intel's issue is still the latency between the northbridge and the CPU, whereas AMD does not have that problem anymore.
For intel, massive bandwidth is more important than pure timings, all things being equal.
These need some high voltage, i'm not sure that any Intel board can provide these voltages. DFI boards for Athlon64 do.

thnx for the reply. ill be getting a booster so that i can supply the required amount of voltage. ill be happy as long as they work at ddr500 2-2-2-8 @3.3v thatll give me a 250fsb and a 750mhz oc
