Well i got a new set of sticks and i hate them again 0627
One stick does 273 and the other 260 both 1T, going at 2T one does 278 and the other 260
But when i try to put both sticks in and run 260 they wont pass only at 255! I am proabably gonna sell these and get me some Mushkin Redline or the Corsair 4400pros just dont know yet!!
Please post your ram timings in BIOS over here
Heres my settings, i even tried yours and it didnt help any for some reason, i have loosened up so much stuff and no gain at all, so i tightened them to these settings again

Do you have the memory in the orange or the yellow slots?
orange slots
Well me and big poppa pump just loosened my timings as much as they can go and guess what this second set of G Skill is just as much garbage as the first!!!! The post the G Skill Tech made in his first post are stick he probably all tested out to get the highest overclocking ones since he didnt post a pic of them and even if he did i woudnt trust the pic, these sticks get 2 thumbs down, and g skills sticks they sent out were probably also tested ones thats why they get so good reviews but i know many G Skill owners that arent happy because they feel robbed!!! G Skill is about the money and not about helping anyone, i should post the emails i was sent from thier techs telling me they will not test a kit for me, which is one thing where i gotta give OCZ props, they tested and gave me a free upgrade to the best 3200 kit they had and all for free!!!!!!!! Thats helping customers not the crap that G Skill does!!!
This Ram is crap and do not buy it!!!!
I am selling this garbage cause i dont keep garbage in my pc!!!
As I said before these HZ are CRAP!
Mine started stable at 265 but now they just do 260. I feel they are very picky over temperature besides they hate voltage and I mean more than just 2.5V...
There is no point in running at loose timings and low MHz!!!! Plane PC3200 will do the job at much lower cost
I bet G.Skill started with some better sticks in Europe just to get the average Jurgens (Joes in German) to follow reviews and buy later crap...
:slapass:
I have to agree...I have been very disappointed with mine. Any elevated temps and these things begin to get flakey and anything over 2.6V makes them even worse. I know a lot of people claim to be getting 270-290FSB out of these things but the best I can get stable in games 260.

Secondly if you look at my temps my :banana::banana::banana::banana: is cold as hell in the case
Third - what ram should i go for next??? Mushkin Redline XP4000 or Corsair 4400pro
P.s NewEgg is now sellin crucial z503 OEM sticks anyone thats wants ram that breaks in a month or so go buy it
Wow, guess some were lucky and some weren't. For me these are the best sticks I've ever owned...especially for the price I paid.
Well i guess the people at the beginning maybe read though this i mean like all pages and lets see how many got screwedQuote:

anyhooo i think im going to stick to my tightests timeings as those seem better for some reason than the 260 with lesser tighter timeings.
@ViRuS2k, not all capable of 260@3/4/3/5, in my experience from 6 pairs only two pair managed that's...and even if you put 8-5-5 timing doesn't help MUCH
PS: Tras doesn't matters, you can put 0-5 without trouble:D
do you have any tips ect like what the dram strenth should be or the other one with numbers that up from that lolQuote:

i have noticed though that one of my sticks is far far better than the other lol wich is strange becuse there a matched set they should behave like a matched set... ,, G.Skill cant have good Q Control.
Matched pairs for GSkill mean one good and other bad... So that you will get plane 260-265MHz stable with shabby 3-4-4 timings.
How much better is your first stick?
About 275 with the first stick at 3/4/4/8Quote:

so im kinda stuck at 260 if i want dualchannel 2gig rather than use just 1 for 1 gig...
there is a method to g.skills madness.
pair up a good stick with a utter :banana::banana::banana::banana:e stick lol
funny thing is the utter :banana::banana::banana::banana: stick memtests fine on tests 1/2/3/4/6/7/8 but on test 5 at 98% there is a pissload of errors that would give ya a heart attack..
unfortunatly in windows even with those errors windows runs fine apart from the fact when i want to run Quickpar to repair a file thats been damaged during download it gets to the end of the repair and spits out a error called POSSIBLE MEMORY FAULT lol
so with those errors i cant fix files with that program and i 100% need that program hehe..
