Carl,

Re: your "Incompatibility" posts. You switch from reporting interoperability problems between DDR chipsets and specific DIMMs, to reporting bugs in the 840 and 850 chipsets. Those are not the same thing. I didn't see anything in your 840 list (I haven't checked the 850 list yet) that says that some RIMMs will work and some won't work in specific motherboards.

Apples and oranges, senor. There have never been any reports of problems with different RIMMs in different motherboards. Why? Because you couldn't ship your product without going through extensive compatibility testing and testing against specifications. There's no equivalent universal testing mechanism (or controller of the mechanism) for DDR.

OTOH, Team DDR is admitting that there are interoperability problems. And, no doubt, there are generic bugs in the chipsets as well.
