OEM Parhelia 3.6ns?

[Unicron]

Ive just noticed that on my Parhelia OEM it has 3.6ns ram on it, where as my retail one has 3.3ns, has anyone else got 3.6ns ram on their OEM version, this might answer my question why the my OEM one crashes after an hour when clocked to 600mhz, what does 3.6ns translate too then?

Thanks.

Never seen that before.

3.6 ns translate to 275x2=550 MHz

Weird huh dude?

Well ive bios hacked it too 220/550 as long as its at retail speeds cant complain really, got it off ebay for £120, the reason why I got it so cheap is because the guy spelt Parhelia wrong, I think he put Parthelia or something like that , luckily i done a search for just Matrox.

nice spot, is it definately just a 128 meg card because the 256 meg have 3.6ns memory.

Huuu, for that price, it's ok but right generally it's a bit weird.

[Unicron]

Its not a 256mb one, 3dmark reports 128mb and there would also be ram chips on the back of the card aswell, whoa that would have been really nice 256mb parhelia for £120 i wish!

oh well I have a really strange Parhelia then, definately says 3.6 on the ram chips though.
