Add my 1866 C7 kit to the list. Was just browsing XS and got a BSOD. Shut down, reboot and only 4GB of RAM seen in BIOS and Windows. :(

Did anyone tried to run Memtest on his dead/bad/degraded sticks and got it stuck ? no errors, just freeze.
I am not totally sure that I have a bad stick, I will try today with another set of OCZ and see if the issues resolve.

**EDIT**
It looks like Memtest86+ v3.5 doesn't work very well, which resulted in freeze.

Memtest v3.4 works well, and 1 stick found to produce errors, got around 250+ in Test #6.

Going to RMA, hoping Kingston's RMA is an easy one.

are there any websites that have batch # narrowed down to the bad ones

i have some 3x2gb 2000mhz kingston hyperx for about 5 months still in packaging unopened and would like to know if there ok

They all die eventually.
They degrade from simply working, I used them for benching and 24/7 use, and 1 stick eventually got defective.
The only way of keeping them alive is to not use them, in case they are not DOA of course.

If they are a bad batch they are: 1. already dead, 2. Will die very quickly by simply doing almost nothing.

0905 is just plain bad, 0907 is not too far behind.... ;) The later batches are holding up well in testing so far.

so it it not worth it to invest in any elpida memory right now?

I'm looking for ddr3 for my rig, but should I go with a lower speed/brand until new stuff comes out?
08-10-2009, 03:13 AM
eva2000

Invest in the brand... corsair has it fixed and new models/product numbers of elpida hyper are without the problematic batches and well warranty on their end will take care of you so really nothing to worry about :)

Apparently the Kingston Policy states that the warranty is only good for the original owner of the product :shrug:
AS you guessed it, it's not me :(
What with this stupid policy ? I have never heard of such policy from any company grrrrr :mad:

So much for "lifetime warranty" :down:

As no receipt is required by OCZ for lifetime memory warranty the user does not need to be the original purchaser.

eva2000

Yeah manufacturer only warrantys for original purchaser but some are more flexible than others. I think OCZ are flexible as Praz pointed out and I definitely know Kingston (Australia) is flexible with warranty and never asked for a receipt. My 6GB Kingston 2000 C8 (using on REX X48 DDR3 right now) were bought off Andre from first newegg batch. I emailed Kingston Australia (APAC) and told them that I bought these from USA and not from Australia, they said no problems and forwarded me to Aussie distributor for RMA replacement Elpida Hypers (working so far yay). Shame Kingston now replaced their 2000C8 Elpida Hyper with 2000C9 probably non-Hyper ICs.
08-13-2009, 06:54 AM
The-Fox

I can arrange some recites from Newegg (of original buyer) if that's what they really want.
Its so silly, they can never really know who bought what and where, they have no tracking of it, so why bother in the first place.

My kits are originally from Andre too, just as everybody who bought the HyperX.

my hyper-x kingston just died today 1 stick. I noticed that heat spreader on the dead stick is kind of loose, perhaps of the heat. However I didn't go over 1600mhz with those sticks.
08-16-2009, 05:59 AM

oh damn kingstone hyper-x are discontinued. I wonder how they are going to repair my stick? Has anyone gone through repair process?
newegg has deactivated that too. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820104084
08-17-2009, 03:07 AM
The-Fox

The old model GX (at the end, full product for 6GB kit is: KHX16000DULT1K3/6GX) is getting discontinue AFAIK.
Probably their new models are with Elpidia BBSE and are spec'ed at CAS9.

I will have more info soon, Just contacted UK RMA, hopefully they will accept the warranty without asking to many questions.

08-27-2009, 01:59 PM
KILLER_K

Kington doesn't ask for a receipt. You just fill out the rma info and then you get to send it in.If you want your money back the you need a receipt for it to get that back.

Sounds a lot like Wal-Mart, placing return items back on the shelf.....

My system was fine for months and suddenly over a week I was getting this "Page Fault in Non-Paged" area BSOD and random shutdowns while just surfing the web. So after testing everything I decided to run memtest86 v2.11 overnight. After 18 passes I got 172032 errors!

I will find out, what we can do tomorrow, it is after midnight here and the office is closed in California.

i did, i told them OCZ should send me a cas 7 kit instead , for stuffing me around for so long, see what happens :shakes: , all i know is im really starting to get pissed off ! this has dragged on for 1 1/2 months

ive always wanted ocz ram but im not to happy with their service with my first ocz experience

edit... and before i bought the kit, i asked if 2000mhz CAS9 Blades had elpida IC's

We have not purchased the Hyper IC's for 3 months now though, depending on how old the retailer stock is, they not be Elpida.

i guess i was unlucky ! all 6gb showed up in windows but 1 stick failed memtest and prime/linx

Mine still going strong, save the one bad stick out of the box. Any chance I can RMA just one stick? I'm not giving up my 2 that do 1800+ 6-6-5 1.66v ( 1.65v not an option :( ):D

Yeah, I only do that with Corsair's modules. :D GSkill sent me the sweater, OCZ sent me the cat, and Patriot installed the carpet. ;)

I just hit 1000 hours of testing with the Dominator GT 2200 kit, so I think these latest batches are good to go now. :up:

Update guys:
I got the HyperX 2000Mhz Cas8 Kit from RMA today, apparently Kingston 2000Mhz C8 is still alive.
I got the same product, probably Elpidia Hyper-> KHX2000C8D3T1K3/6GX.
Don't know which week it is, I hope it is working.
So what I said earlier regarding the BBSE kits is probably wrong, which is good :)

Hopefully they did, the customs and shipping of the RMA had cost me about 1/2 of it's retail value so if they die again I am not going to RMA them.

RMA was superfast :)
I sent the package on Sunday noon from Israel to UK (we are working here on Sunday ;)) and I got a phone call from UPS by Friday morning that the package has hit the Customs, but those lazy guys don't work on Friday :rolleyes:, so I got it today. :D

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...

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.

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...

thats only 1850 tho... but 777? doesnt it go higher with 787?

didnt the previous kits do 2000+ 787 with 1.65v?
and now its 1850 787 with 1.75v? hmmm :/

best way to remove the heatspreaders... yeah hairdryer but you might actually unsolder them if you overdo it... and the only time i tried to take heatpders off a corsair stick the solder balls went pop pop pop and i had the heatspreader with all chips glued to it in my hand... and i barely pulled, i was really shocked lol :D
so if be careful...

definately TWIST the heatspreader sideways and dont pull it off!

My 2nd set of corsair dom GT's 3x2 2000 7-8-7 kit just died. I received this kit in June from an rma of my original kit purchased in February. I thought the suspect Elpida chips were identified and removed from the supply chain by that time but I guess not. This was on a Classy 759 @200 bclk and 1.64 vdimm. Rig was used for light gaming and such but NO benching and that is very dissapointing. :down: At least Corsair's rma service is dependable.

I think that nowadays Corsair GTs will never die.... :D
By mistake on my ASUS Rampage Extreme, I supplied them with 2.53Volts and they still work...... (I had a saved profile in it with the GTRs/GTS modules :p: ) .... :D

this is a comparison between my old KHX16000DULT1K3/3GX kit I send to ram and the new one I receive : KHX2000C8D3T1K3/3GX

Here is the box sticker info:
TR3X6G2000C7GTF G

Lot 09230316 There is a QC pass stamp dated 2009 6 03

I have no idea if that makes it old or new product.

That's old stock, because P/N starts with "TR", new stock starts with "CMG".

that's old stock 0923 = week 23, 2009 , new stock is with SKU product code of CMG6GX3M3A2000C7 http://i4memory.com/wp/article/731 so be assured this next RMA will have the new stock which is apparently rock solid :)

I still have old stock which I've had for nearly 7 months http://i4memory.com/f83/6gb-corsair-...-review-18682/ which still is rock solid up to 1.93v vdimm :)

well, another one bites the dust. I had these Kingston 2000 since may, I actually ordered 2 sets but the second set kept dying on me and after a few RMAs I just returned it for refund. This one ran fine at 2000 8-8-8-20 for a while but today, after a few weeks of running at stock (1066) started to BSOD on me... And that's after one day of having a fan on top of it (had the fan before but removed it, and put it back on yesterday). Well, either they didn't like running at 1066 or it was just their time.

Why on earth do you run 2000mhz specced kits at 1066 lol My Blades are on RMA, hoping to get a good long lasting kit...
10-18-2009, 10:14 AM

well, I was upgrading OS/performing WC maintenance so I didn't want to have an overclock as an unknown variable. I was actually about to overclock the system (that's why I attached the ram fan) but the ram failed :(

Edit: ran memtest stick by stick, 2 still work fine, one doesn't even boot! errors all over the place in 2 or 3-channel mode. Well, I guess I'll run in dual-channel mode for now :(

Edit2: I think there were signs before, when I was having random BSODs although overall my overclock was stable but BSODs were still happening. With these Elpidas, you never know - is the oc unstable or just ram bad (well not until it dies lol)

Iposted a while ago, that my first kit of 2000c8 kingstons died after some moderate benching (up to 1.8v). Well the kit I recieved in RMA died after just a few 32M runs at 1.7v 910mhz 7-7-6-18. Waiting on my new kit hopefully with the non explosive hypers
10-18-2009, 11:29 AM

I actually never pushed my Kingstons, 1.67v and 2000mhz 8-8-8-20 was the max I applied.

Yeah my first 2 x set of Kingston HypersX 2000 6GB CL(8) I had to RMA. It nice living only 15 miles away from Kingston Tech and I receive my new set the next day. :) Planning on testing them tonight.. My first set worked tell 1 of the sticks went bad, then I threw in my second old set unopened and 2 sticks were dead. Does anyone know what they been passing out on the 6GB CL(8) recently?
