Team XTreem TXDR 1024M400HC2
Team will be another new name to our readers, but the company already has a world-wide presence with manufacturing in Asia and US Sales Offices.
Specifications
The Team 2GB kit is another DDR400 rated memory kit, which, as expected, features Infineon chips.
As we have seen with all the new 2GB kits, high memory voltage is not required to get the most from the 2GB kits. Team also rates their kit at standard voltage, and we never required more than 2.8V to get the most performance from the 2GB kit.
Test Results
To be considered stable for test purposes, Quake3 benchmark, UT2003 Demo, Super PI, Aquamark 3, and Comanche 4 had to complete without incident. Any of these, and in particular Super PI, will crash a less-than stable memory configuration.
The DDR400 rating would lead us to believe that these are Infineon B die chips, and if they are, Team has done an excellent job in binning chips and designing their PCB and SPD. That's because Team Xtreem reaches the highest overclock that we have seen with a DDR400 rated 2GB kit.
Memory timings are what we would expect with a well-designed Infineon chip-based memory, and the Team overclocks all the way to DDR533. To repeat, this is the highest overclock in the roundup for a memory rated at DDR400.
The Team name may not be familiar to you, but you should definitely add Team to your shopping list. These are solid DDR400 Infineon DIMMs and if the price is right, you will not be disappointed in your new memory purchase. It is true that Infineon C die reaches a bit further if properly binned, but the difference between the TEAM at 533 and C die at 550 or higher is not that big. Other DDR400 rated Infineon DIMMs in this roundup often struggled to even approach DDR500 in their overclocks.

WouT - Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - link
I can confirm:It would be a good idea to mention this in the article as readers should be informed that this memory is not in production and cannot be replaced by the same part anymore.
------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Crucial Technology's Expert Online. An Expert Online agent will join you in a moment... Please do not begin typing until you have been connected to an agent.
Hello, my name is Patrick . How may I help you?
Ewoud Venmans: I am looking for the fastest available 2GB kit for my ASUS A8R-MVP motherboard
Patrick : One moment, please, while I review your inquiry.
The agent is sending you to http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.asp?model=A...">http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.asp?model=A....
Patrick : The link provided will take you to a list of memory upgrades that are guaranteed to be compatible, or your money back (shipping not included).
Is there anything else I can help you with?
Ewoud Venmans: Ok, but the speeds are only up to PC3200. I am looking for PC4000.
Ewoud Venmans: Newegg does sell them, but I cannot find these on your site.
Ewoud Venmans: They should work as well, won't they?
Patrick : The parts at the top of the list are PC4000.
Ewoud Venmans: Sorry I only see PC3200 and PC2700 in the list?
Patrick : Yes, you are right. We don't have the PC400 anymore.
Ewoud Venmans: And if I click on performance memory I can only see PC4000 1Gb kits, not the 2Gb kits.
Ewoud Venmans: Ahhh, so if I order those at newegg, I will still have your lifetime guarantee?
Patrick : If you order that product at New Egg, after 30 days you will not be able to get that product, however we will replace with a product like PC3200 or give you a In Store Credit.
Ewoud Venmans: Hmm, so you stopped producing these and won't introduce PC4000 1GB modules anymore?
Patrick : Not in DDR. We will in DDR2.
Ewoud Venmans: Ok, thank you Patrick! You have answered all what I wanted to know.
Patrick : You're welcome. Thank you for visiting Crucial.com, and have a great day.
