I've heard the Mushkin Redline DDR3 1600 @ 7-8-7-24 can go down to 6-6-6-15 @ 1.85v @ 1600 or OC up to 2133 @ 9-10-9-20. I'm not sure which would be the better way to go for an AMD setup though.

Err...what are they rated?
Newer AMD CPU's get really touchy after 1.75-1.8v, week (about) 1010 and back CPUs (quads only) are immune from this effect. Thuban X6's can not do 2133 stable anyway...unless you are really lucky, do a lot of tinkering, have an amazing IMC and Crosshair V for example you might get near 2100.
I would not set higher voltage.. I was just searching a stable daily use.
as someone said, thuban do not like very much ram >2000 mhz. not easy to get stable (higher cpu-nb vcore also).
with nb at 2800-3000 it is better 1600 6-6-6 or 1800 7-7-7.
I've also a 2x2gb dominator gt 1600 c6 rev 2.1 (elpida hyper)

fully stable without higher voltages on the cpu-nb
They are rated at 1600 7-8-7-24 @ 1.65v I haven't tried to push them much because I think its pointless on my 955BE I was saving them for the BD chip. So right now they are at the default. My 955BE tops out at 4.2 from what I can tell at 1.5v I wanna try to get it down to 1.475v Maybe I will tinker with the chips and see what I can get them down to.
If you wanted I can show you 1800 6-6-6 on AMD platform...albiet at a high voltage. I got 2000 6-6-6 through sandra @ 1.9v on my 2000 C7 sticks. My 2000 C7 sticks are still a good .06-.07v behind what GTX2 can do. I have not seen an ADATA kit better than my ProjectX kit, which does 1800 6-6-6-18 at 1.71v.
The ADATA's are typically worse, one person I know used them on AMD here in the forum and he had to lax to 6-7-6 for 1600.
Hondacity went around claiming they were amazing for a while, tried to correct me when I said they were made up of old stock (all hyper are old stock :rolleyes: ) ...they are nothing special, some MNH-E some MGH-E, all old and dont clock well.
I used A-DATA too and my max was 1700 MHZ 7-7-6...more was not possible full stable....GSkill and PSC are diferent story :) (have RipjawsX and Flare kits)
1700??for the 2200 A-DATAs.Don`t wanna be impolite but don`t you think this is a little bit less?If you mean DDR3-1700@stock voltage
than I get it wrong,pardon.
Seen someone did DDR3-1806 CL6-6-6-18 @1.69v(32M) on 890FX.
Unfortunately one of my pair is defective(got it this way),but i get another one of 4Gb soon.Don`t have a good CL6 Plattform myself,with 1.75v I achieved 1153Mhz CL8-8-8-30 32M on P55.
Best sticks I've seen outside if GTX2s were NCSpec's A-Data 2200's which were flashes to GTX2 SPD and were almost as good as his GTX2s. He ran 1900 6-6-6 for quite a while if I recall. I'll have to ask him for voltages and the like.
I meant 1700 at 1.7v. Stock voltage is up to 1.75v on these sticks so 1700 at stock voltage I suppose is easy.
chew* and MSIMAX tested a kit and it wouldnt pull 1800 6-6-6- either. Trash.
Sure, looks like some people got lucky. I can do 1800 6-6-6-18 @ 1.69v on 890FX too, on my STT 2000 C7 I believe.
In fact, here:

1800 CL6-6-6 at 1.75v on intel equals close to 1.8v on AMD I believe...not impressive. I'm not totally sure about hyper but PSC on intel needs a LOT less voltage than PSC on AMD.
Hey guys!Tiny question..I've bought today a G.skill kit (16000CL9-4GBRH) and trying to find a sweet spot..Right now I'm on 1600MHz 7-7-7-20 1.66v..It passed memtest with 1.65v but I left the pc open for about 2 hours and when I came back a bsod was waiting for me :( I also tried 1600 6-7-6 1.68v (memtest passed) but I thought of staying on the safe side..Does anybody know what IC's are on these modules?Most importantly, can anybody help me on the bios settings for best stability/low timmings? (Gigabyte 990XA-UD3)..Thanks a million :)
Memtest86 is useless for windows stability.
Prime95 blend for four to eight hours should do the trick.
If 6-7-6 doesnt pass and 7-7-7 doesnt pass but 6-8-6 passes you have some revision of PSC. I'm pretty sure those kits are PSC anyway.
Thank you! :) And if it does pass I suppose it has BBSE like some guys say?
Yeah I think it's kinda old.But I found a god-forsaken kit and I bought it :P
Anyone know any good 8gb (2x4gb) sticks? I know the 4gb (2x2gb) are best for benching, but I'm looking for 24/7 build that could use some good 2x4gb sticks.
I wouldn't mind having some of these.

It seems like Ripjaws are the only way to go with AMD atm, if you want more than 4gb.
Correction. Hynix BFR is the way to go on amd if you want 4gb sticks.
Can be found on more than just Ripjaws. Corsair vengenace (v 5.11) is one of them.
im running 4x2gb Kingston hyperX 2133's @ 1600 6-8-6-24 1.65v. any one know what these have in them for the ic's?
Stay away of TeamGroup Xtreem LV 2000 4Gb kit's, yes they will do 2000 9-11-9-27-T1 but thats it at least in AMD Phenom II 1090T.
This phenom have nice memory controller, 2200 with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231462 kit (2 sticks in use).
1600 7-9-7-24 T1 1.65v = FAIL
1600 8-10-8-24 T1 1.65v = FAIL
1600 9-11-9-27 T1 1.65v = PASS
1600 9-11-9-27 T1 1.6v = PASS
2000 9-11-9-27 T1 1.65v = PASS
2050 9-11-9-27 T1 1.65v = FAIL
2050 9-11-9-27 T1 1.7v = FAIL
They come with Hynix BZR chips (teamgroup kit).
Anyone have idea if they tolerate 1.75volts without degrading?
No idea if they work better in Intel setups since i dont have atm time to test them in i7 2600k machine.
My Kingston HyperX sticks with Hyper ICs are running very good with my Asus Crosshair V 990FX.
They're doing more than DDR3-1800 with CL6 timings easily^^
906 MHz @ 6-6-5-15 22 1t @ 1.73v - 32m

929 MHz @ 6-6-5-15 22 1t @ 1.76v - 1m

I got -almost- the same result..I was just testing/learning the MOBO so no detailed screenshot.. :(
1090T (all cores enabled) 4GHz (20*200)
RAM 1600MHz 6-6-5-18
Everything else (nb,ht etc..) stock..Anyway..Hypers seem like the best choice for AMD rigs imo :S
i am sure that hypers are the best for amd! :clap:
