1T/2T doesn't change anything.
CPU\NB voltage to 1,35+V doesn't change anything either.
The bad thing: sometimes Prime95 lasts houres, like now, others fails after few minutes (ofter during cold boot). WTF? :(
Picked up the low profile DDR3 kit from the Egg for $49.99 plus tax free shipping.
We'll see in a couple of days whether this is main rig or htpc material ;)
I have to put a guard to your dear mates and friends about these memories. Perhaps they are not so good as first tests could show.
Actually I am the only one here testing for stability, as far as I can see, and I can't get full stability over 1750Mhz, no matter which settings (and I don't think it is because my IMC, but it could be).
They are good memories, great potentially, but actually not so enthusiast one (at least on AMD platform). So watch out or perhaps wait for better binning of same chips.
The bad thing about these memories is that you can boot with almost any settings, but stability is a myth.
Just my two cents.
Goodbye.
I got 1866 8-9-9 with 1.46(my biostar board has 1.3 than 1.5 step,so maybe they work with something like 1.4) fully stable.I could not stabilize them at 2133 by no means,no matter what voltages,latencies,vtt.Perhaps a board compatibility problem.My model is 1600 30 nm.

TBH I gave up on mine once they needed 10-11-11-30-1T for hyperpi @ 2133mhz. Didnt even bother with true stability. Already shipped them out :lol:.
On what mobo Pilsy?Mine are not stable even with 12-12-12 and 1.6V,always give error on hyper-pi start,no matter what vtt either.So i guess mobo related,they act something like hypers,will boot into windows and do 3d but not fully stable.
P67-Pro. Not tried in the maximus yet.
Had to get vccio EXACTLY right. They required 1.125v, no more, no less. Anything except 1.125v was slightly unstable. Couldnt do even a single linx pass @ >4gb until I got vccio right.
My hunch is the 6 series boards just arent set up to run high speed ddr3. 5 or 7 series would likely be a much better platform for this ram.
[edit - quick tip, although the black slots dont hit as high mhz as the blue slots they are more stable. Black slots are stable at 2133mhz and blue slots are not. However blue slots will reach windows at up to 2230mhz, black slots max boot to windows is 2180mhz.]
Well P67 Pro from asrock?asrcok got the worse memory clocking ability,for example on some psc chips before,they required 1.65 on the asrock at 2133 while on biostar will require 1.58.Test them on maximus and report back please :)
You said you achieved 2133 9-10-10 with 1.5V right?Maximus is the best card for clocking memory so far on 1155,so i quite expected i will not reach that on my biostar tp67xe :)
Actually I didn't see a single stability test even on Intel platform so I have strong doubts about their stability even on X79 or P67. Yeah, I am saying these memories won't be stable over 1900Mhz, no matter which platform.
Next time I will not trust anymore syntethic tests or suicides screenshots, but it has become really hard to get from people some real stability test and this is really a bad thing :|.
In my results posted, I used hyperpi. If they pass it, then they are good for benching with the same clocks. I did not run blend or linx, it isnt needed for what Im doing. I have had much better results on x79, but I still cannot say if they will pass hours of blend or 25 loops of linx. I have given up running stress tests for countless hours, its a pita and for what I do its a waste of time.
I have been able to run a lot of different kits on s2011 with much better results than on other platforms. Even my hypers clock very good on it, unlike p67/z68.
However, I have run them for days with the same clocks with no issues.
I am considering to purchase 3x4gb for my new rig (x58 platform). How do they perform on X58?? Now a days I cannot really find a similar option for that price, considering that I can get them from 23€ / stick in The Netherlands...That means 70 eur a 3x4gb. The cheapest option for 3x4gb is nearly 65€ and are the value ram from Crucial and the Corsair value ram versions...
What should I do? Should I give them a try?? So far I am pretty impressed with the results that u guys obtained on the x79 platform...but in the other hand I am kinda worried about the results obtained with the p67 chipset and the stability issues that some users reported..
Asus P8P67-Pro. Maximus will be back up by the weekend hopefully with a new cpu :). I'll give them a quick blast then and if its looking promising ill stability test. From what memory I have here though the Pro clocks identical to the M4E until you start raising bclk, then the M4E is slightly better (sometimes more mhz, sometimes less voltage). All my tests were done at 100.1 so Im not expecting any change.
Someone could please explain to me why these mem. are much more unstable @cold boot (I mean several houres PC off and then on)?
Also VRM's have a certain "wake-up" period. Thats why some boards have cold boot issues.
This is usually down to drift in memory training (temp compensation is one element that drifts). Newer architectures are better. Any pull up times for the VRMs are accounted for by power good before these routines are started. Cold boot also performs a long training routine, and some drift at the edge of stability is inevitable.
Wow this ram is indeed low profile!
Anyways got the 30nm ddr3 1600 kit from the Egg for $49.99 plus tax free shipping.
Didn't mess around just set it for 1.65v on my Asus P8P67 at DDR3 2133 9-10-10-28 and passed Prime95 blend for over an hour:

Nice,can you lower the voltage and keep stability?
