4 GB - 2054Mhz - Cas. 6-9-6-28 - 1t - 1.65v:

Ehm nice !

Sorry, I dont see nowhere near 2000mhz????

Is CPU tweaker and CPU-z completely wrong?
I'd say you got one heck of an amazing result with your 2000mhz, you have to teach me some tricks it seems!

Well...here's a new step .... dj883u2 is working damn hard on them!!!

4 GB - 2100Mhz - Cas. 6-9-6-28 - 1t - 1.65v:

And that's not their best ... wait and see!!!

Marco

Very nice :up:
Please look for stable frequency too if possible.

Just a fast test on a x58 system, seems like some nice chips on the ECO series!

wow....sick stick....awesome timing n speed...

=>principino1984: I see that your board and model ID are not show in CPU-Tweaker:
could you download BAR-Edit, after install, choose DMI-BIOS in second combo,
click on DMI.txt and send the text at memset@hotmail.fr.
Thank.

Very Good ram!....:up:

Now if only ram performed this well on AMD platforms.....Never the less NICE clocks there keep up the good work!!

2250mhz@1,69 is crank :D:D:D:D

New day ..... new result...:up:

Kit ram G.Skill is very good!:up:

lol i love how there is like 4-5 threads going on this ram, Some damn nice stuff for Intel's it seems!!

Dragon

Nice ram. :) Lots of nice options from G.Skill atm and they are all pretty cheap too. :D

Thanks to all.:up:

I know it's optimized for lynnfield, but should it preform similarly on x58? I really need to pick some ram for my build.

Please run max benchstable Superpi 32M something with 6-9-6-28 88 1T and 1,65v!

Thanks

Great chips down here....2300 CL6 at only 1.65v is sick :eek:

Hello.:)

Max "SuperPi 32M" stable with 1.64v on bios and air is 2125Mhz.

4 GB - 2125Mhz - Cas. 6-9-6-28-88 - 1t - 1.64v:

http://www.xtremeshack.com/immagine/t39802_1.jpg

:up:

Think it is 2300@1.75 ;)

How are they cooled?

I am on the fence between Ripjaws and these, but all these sic results you ppl keep on posting make me want to fall of the fence and die :D

No, really, some great sticks we have here, and decent looking too because I dislike those oversized unnecessary heatspreaders :down:

Can they run stable at 2000MHz CL6?

And guys, no matter it is about great memory, I believe one thread was sufficient for all your results. ;)

All these scoes are made with air cooling (with 120mm fan on them). We don't really know how much do they want for rock solid. But what do you mean with rock solid? Do you need prime95 or what? Just let us know and we'll try it.

Hi,

Thank you so much! Very good result indeed! Thank for share! :up:

So these kit have powerchips? :)

2150 6-9-6-28 18k everest Read :confused: you are bencing in signle channel check your 2100 6-9-6-28 that one is dual channel 20k and it's still without tweak with some tweak you can get 22k @ 2000 6-9-6-928 and 23k @ 2100 same settings
it's normal if cpu z detected 4gb but when you are booting check your memories they are 2gb and not 4gb

your problem is just RTL and it's very important in P55 and X58 platform try set them manualy;)

So what's the consensus on these, are they decent OC'rs for 2x 2GB PC3-12800 parts?
Also if you under-clock them below stock, can you get tighter timings, & can they run on even less voltage?

I mostly want to run at stock or under-clock w/tighter timings....
But on the rare occasion that I game, a decent OC (not hard-core) would be nice too!

Not sure I'd have quite as much luck as others with a GA-H57M-USB3 though :(
I believe the memory controller on the Clarkdale's (I'm getting Core i3-530) reverts back to the Core micro-architecture.
And of course a lot depends on the board and it's BIOS....

Any thoughts/advice on this or other g.skill RAM greatly appreciated!

okaaaay, thanks.
