i'm using the fatality cpu cooler atm(just popped off the Tt typhoon yesterday)...no clearance issues on either DFI...SLi or rdx. i've tried 4 boards and 3 cpu's...all in all i'm a bit upset becasue this was the most expensive ram there is locally, but it does as advertized, so no complaints from me. running the 180 divider would been nice tho...

I am using these sticks also in my home computer. I can get them up to 265 mhz in 2d but above 258 is a no go for 3d applications with this ram. Actually I am a bit disappointed with them. I expect much better results when paying a premium amount of money. I use 8/3 8/2, 8/1 strengths with my expert board. Tref of 3072-4708. 3-7-14-3-2-8-2-2-2-3 timings in a64 tweaker. I also tried 2.7 and 2.8 volts but no difference.

Same here. Around 255 is the magic number on mine, rather dissapointed. I sent back some Ballastix for these, should have just got another pair of crucials.

I just got this ram as well. The default timings were so damn loose that i didn't tweak them at all, but i'm having trouble getting them stable around 260 now. Oh sure, they'll bench at 275+, but long term i'm getting errors throughout the whoel 26x + range. Right now i'm at 255 :(. Any ideas?

best to get base tune from charlies a64 tweaker and then start tuning your tref from there. That's the most sensitive value in the bios past tuning your main and alpha timings. I run 2.8-2.93v

Yeah, I'm debating if I should return them. Sadly, on their website, they quote the Techpower Review where the reviewer states he's rock solid at 265mhz.

It looks like alot of people are not even stable at 260. Tomorrow Im going to have to do me a long 5 hr or more game session to make sure mine are 3d stable.

Mine are 24 hr primed, memtest86, dual spi all stable and I only ran 2 loops of 3dmark pro 2005. Gamed a bit but not enough to say its 8hr 3d stable. 260x10.

Were only guaranteed 250 out of these but the price should be a little lower if their not 3d stable over 250. If mine crap out on me @260 then Ill use my good ol 11 multi. People say its not voltage related but I get like 2 or 3 errors at 2.75-2.85v depending on cpu vcore/speed with this neo2. 2.7v is the sweet spot for my sticks. I keep my trc at 12 and dram idle timer at 16 wich probably should be holding me back a bit but its doing me just fine.

Well, seeing as they run according to their 250 specs, I doub't if any retailer will let you return them...mine wouldn't...and even if they would, you would just get another pair in return, probably from same poor batch :(

If you read my prior posts, you'd know I got my set from Newegg which will allow me to return them w/ a restocking fee but more importantly they came w/ defective heatspreaders.
