Has anyone heard of any problems or tested the NEW version of Corsair GT 2000CL7?
i dont think gary killed a single kit with an esd :P
i dont think its behind us, the bad batches are deployed and some seem to live for quite a few weeks or even months before going belly up, so we will probably see elpida hyper kits with a higher than normal failure rate for some more time...
corsair did an excellent job though in pulling back bad stock, or possibly bad stock, so prevent as many rmas and customer woes as possible! :toast:
i think kingston and possibly others still have bad inventory themselves or at distries/shops that havent been sorted out, so for them this could be stretching over months...
visit the tradeshows ;)

CRISIS OVER!
i thought one of my sticks was dead, then i thought my classified ram slot was dead, then i thought it was the stick again...
a lesson to be learnt here is, dont eat your SILF over the motherboard!

Finding new ways of keeping it alive :)

hah, good luck :D
i doubt it helps much though, i heard from 2 people who sub zero cooled their kits and they stilled died during a single session...
but it cant hurt :D
:up: nice one raga, corsair on E657/8
show us the frequency :p:
my first Hypers had CB@-10 look like yours no have CB ?
No CBB bug on mine even with evap this cold. This is the new Corsair i5 kit.
First 10 mins were great 32M @ 2200 CAS 8-8-8-24 1N @ around 1.46V. After that though IMC got too cold and things got worse before I could really start clocking.
later

about how long is the kingston rma-to-shipping process
With my faulty modules i was never able to run them @ 2000Mhz with 7-8-7-20-1T timings.. BSOD in linX what ever volts i would use all the time..
The new (ic) modules are def fixed

so i take it the kingston : KHX16000DULT1K3/3GX is Elpidia hyper ic's
and the : KHX2000C8D3T1K3/3GX is Elpidia BBSE?
i had one stick drop out after 3days 2000 7-7-7-20 1.68v
sent them back to kingston uk but now due to postal strike i still aint got them :mad:
they have told me there swapping them
Item #: KHX16000D3ULT1K3/3GX Replaced by: KHX2000C8D3T1K3/3GX

there not as good as the others not by a long way
Why what is so bad about these kits? Perhaps different ic's on them? Care to explain a bit more.
dont get me wrong there not the worst set
but when benching with them earllyer they need loads of volts to run stable for vantage 8-8-8-20 i was touching 1.8v the old set were stable 7-7-7-20 1.72 but they did only live 4days from new lol
im still playing with the new so lets hope they go well past the 2000 7-7-7-20
i need to play with the subtimmings more
I got the older set back about i say a month ago, can't recall the exact date though. But i got the older batch number and i could hit 2,175 mhz with default timings and 1.65v with ease. But it seems my C0 chip and or my asus doesn't like each other along with the G-15 weird keyboard issues. So i stopped there with mine
so what speeds are you hitting with the new kingston kits? 2000 888 with 1.8v?
that could be samsung or micron as well easily...
Guys, need some help
I was wondering if the following kits are the famed dying elpidas
link here
7-7-7-20 1.74v b2b=31
http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/s...6-4070copy.jpg
but it was not stable for vantage at tho's speeds had to up it to 8-8-8-20 1.8v it would prolly have gont thru @1.8 7-7-7-20 but never got the chance to test
also whats the best way to get the sinks off? hair dryer?
