23 comes up before 55 so you can use junk 1600MHz to test IMC.
The pot is more there because users that will buy this kit will most likely be putting them under LN2.
I have two very good 3770Ks, but Alex does your ram pass 3000MHz HyperPi 32m and other tests at 1.65v?I think it could,since it can pass 2800 memtest with 0.92 vccsa and 1.05 vccio
To be honest the modules probably end up costing over the asking price to make. As for the pot it will be custom engraved and something that not everybody else will have.
3000 @ 1.65V is amazing
Are you affiliated with Corsair in some manner and KNOW that they are selling these modules at a loss, or is that just a conjecture on your part?
As for the "limited edition" pot, there will always be those that feel the need, or have the desire, for unique products, so it may be that some will end up buying this combo for just that reason (of course, this whole ram/pot combo falls into that category anyways).

Then that certainly adds validity to his statement about the production costs exceeding the sales price. I still question the notion of grouping the pot and the ram, but that's just my personal opinion and only time will tell.^ He works for Corsair!
I just remembered this name (Planet) coming up in a conversation that I had with a member on another forum. Also referred to him as Jake, if I recall correctly. These are one and the same, right?

Naw, I don't run in the same circles that you guys do. I'm on the outside looking in.You don't know Planet?
At least I had the smarts to ask if he worked for Corsair, so do I get a little credit for that?

Yes!
It is definitely not an easy task to bin hynix chip that can function 100% @ 3000 - 1.65V at any timings.
Some hynix kit is stable enough @ 3000+ air, albeit with more juices...and its hard to find.
I'm pretty sure this Vengence 3000 can do it @ 1.65V pobably with cpu on ambient

I didn't take it any way other than just you just having fun with me (or was that at my expense?). Seriously, not taken the wrong way at all.

One of these kits + frozen AMD imc should prove fun...
You mean you don't have two or three samples at home?

Not this kit, but I have a couple kits of hynix that have to be paired with 3000+ capable cpu

I figured that you had at least a couple of 3000+ kits at home...plus the CPUs, right?

3000+ 32M is a tough order Reefa, I think it all depends on ic's + cpu imc + mb/bios to nail 3000+ with any sort of stability.
I have tested a plethora of different Ivy cpu's and only two of them could run 3000+ and only one could run it in dual channel and 32M stable.
These sticks are Hyperpi stable at 3000 12-14-14-35-2T at 1.65v which must be incredibly hard to bin, as I have not seen any BFR or CFR do it, single sided or double sided. Seems MFR has promising future.
For you guys that have the Z77 OC Formula, the 2800 MFR profile is a good baseline for 3000+
Haha! Wow, the first time I ever heard of paying $750 for sticks of memory that cost the same as any other kit to make, and getting them for a "below cost" at $750!
I mean that'd be like Apple paying $1,000 to make an iPhone, and selling them to us for $200! Wow, never heard of that one lol.
And wow, custom engraved pot! I definitely gotta buy it now, I'd love it to have Corsair advertised all over it!
"The moral of my story is that you need to go tell those dear to you that you love them, give them a hug and a kiss and do it often, because you never know when that opportunity might slip away."
I am not saying the price is the best on these, but once you factor how many ic's were binned to find the ones that can run that spec at 1.65v the price is not too outrageous. I know that none of my kits can run 3000+ 32M but these did with no problem and that is one of those things that is checked off of the list of things to do
Most of G.Skills top kits are in this similar price bracket ($600+) so I expect nothing less from Corsair. The pot does not really matter as most will all ready own one, but either way it is nice to see Corsair catering to xtreme memory oc.
Yes, I do fully agree with that. I understand spending tons of time, money, etc on finding a kit that will really bin that high, so yeah it's worth it to those guys who can actually afford it. But I DO NOT believe it's below cost for Corsair at this price, that made me LOL. And true on where we are heading, I agree with that statement about the Z87.
"The moral of my story is that you need to go tell those dear to you that you love them, give them a hug and a kiss and do it often, because you never know when that opportunity might slip away."
It takes a hell of a lot of binning to get a kit capable of these speeds with 1.65v, hence the cost.
For testing I am running CPU and memory on air.
Well think about how much time and testing has gone in just to find the memory ICs. They go through a ton of sorts before I even get my hands on them to find the 3000MHz chips. Then I hand pick and test which ICs end up on the modules. Once I have enough ICs to build modules they then get built and need to be tested again. Its a very labor intensive process since these are essentially hand build modules.
nice imc manWell i don't know,i do not have ram that capable....Send me a certified 3000 kit and we can find out
Cpt.Planet has posted a new score: 1616.1 MHz @ 12-15-15-36 @ 1.75V memory still on air
Pretty good IMC!

I can't believe that cpu is on air...
