How come yours cost so much? They're between £43 and £60 on overclockers if you wait for the daily offer or this week only to come around. Got 4 kits now total cost £166...

I can get 2200Mhz easy, ~2300Mhz using the 22x multi and pushing the BCLK. 24x multi doesnt work for me at all on a 3570K or 3770K. 26x multi worked shortly for a Spi 1m, but now its just no post, or post loop. Messed with the secondary and third timings, every voltage I could think of, very relaxed timings, nothing worked. So I dont know if its my set, some setting in BIOS, or what. Not the IMC (at least on the 3770K) because previous owner had ~2800Mhz.Quote:

Cecil.... I'm too new at this but thought I would start with mostly everything on auto except primary timings. I need to find what will run at around 1.65 or less preferably then compare the bandwidth with running slower but tighter. These will end up in a crunching rig probably then I will keep 1 pair for learning this stuff some. 2400 is nearly there using this method but I must be able to do better than 11,12,12,28 once I get the hang of it?? For this set though Voltage must remain reasonable.
Gah they stung you with that??? I seriously hate overclockers, every dealing with them ive had to have has been horrendous, from receiving different graphics cards to the ones I ordered and being accused of fraud until they spotted the stock discrepancy to taking months for refunds to arrive. Im very careful when i order from them, its only stuff like these samsungs that will force me to give them my money. I got one pair of kits for £40 each and one pair of kits for £43 each, postage £8 per order though. Kinda ridiculous given I got an A5 jiffy bag letter size delivery. They always shaft you somehow lol.
Sorry for the OT rant :lol:
Cecil, are you using 2 x 4gb or 4 x 4gb ? Try and mix and match with the slots and sticks and see if you have a bad stick or slot pair.
@Oldchap, try these settings my friend:
2400MHz :
1.5V - 1.6V
confirmed:
- 2400@10-10-10-30-1T @ 1.5V
- 2400@10-11-11-28-1T @ 1.58V
- 2400@11-11-11-28-1t @ 1.54V
I would not go 24/7 from these speeds and on:
2600/666MHz:
1.58V-1.68V
confirmed:
- 2666@10-12-12-25-1T @ 1.678V
I do not recommend going beyond this point.
"at your own risk"
2800MHz
1.71V-1.75V
confirmed:
- 2800@11-12-12-21 @ 1.73V
- 2840@11-12-12-28 @ 1.74V
-----------------------
How do we "know" the table?
several full pages of trial and error.. or just few if you're very skilled.
There's no magic - just hard work, a LOT of boots, and very small incremental changes either way - to test and validate.
Many thanks to you rouvio. Whilst I realise that I need to learn a whole bunch of things to get into this I am happy to stick with this as a best for me, which will run LinX too :)
I am still struggling a bit with the 2400 area but I expect that due to the need for ~1.5v I will settle around the 2200 mark for the cruncher.

EDIT: by the way. d/l'd memtweakit and when running it does not show settings.... what is the trick there?
You might need to add an exclusion for MemTweakIt in Anti-Virus software. Kaspersky sees it suspicious file and asked if I want to terminate it.Quote:

I couldnt get memtweakit to work on my Sabertooth either. Just assumed it was only for ROG boards. Full OS install with all drivers, and full AI Suiet II installed.
just saw this... and it worked for me.... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=1#post5102480
So you sticks are still working? Or that one is broken?
Anyway I don't think voltages ~1.75V would broke them in few minutes. I think you fried them with 1.8V+.

Pic looks right, description looks right.... worth a go?
The condensation on one of the mem sticks happened due to bad/incomplete sealing of the mobo with designer erasers.Quote:

The mem got ^#$^ed up because of bad sealing during DICE sessions, and not over voltages.
This is my personal opinion (as the one carrying the DICE session, you know..), tho I cant have my finger pointing at over-voltages.
I still hold opinions that these are prolly the greatest mem kit of all times.
After VAT, import duty and shipping youll pay upwards of £85...Quote:

There is no import duty on items valued below £135 Vat may be charged on items over £15 but often slip under the radar if the amount is small like this. It is a gamble you take.
You'd be surprise friend, what clear honesty can do.Quote:

You can be sure I will continue my business with them because I'm satisfied with the service.
I will also recommend all of my friends to purchase from them.
the manager was a thinking person, not a corporate serial numbered machine... which I can only admire.
I got mine from Caseking.de as someone gave a link to them in this thread: thank you ! Fast delivery and they didn't lie on their stock like some other german shops do...

Here's the chip marking for reference.

Just picked up 16GB of this for myself, along with a Z77 Sabertooth and a 3570K. Will report back with how well they do.
here my results with i3570K on the MIVE P67 B3 using BIOS 3209 with the YKO samsungs

what tRFC are you using guys for 2400 speed, im on the MIVE and 3570K and its seems the key for stability
thanks in advance
