I've got no strings to hold me down.
To make me fret, or make me frown.
I had strings but now I'm free.

Well here's the best i can do with the ECO's this was at 1.65v and my goal was to keep them stable. I can manage over 200 but not by much and i'm having trouble keeping them stable. I haven't tested how low i can go with voltages, but this is basically on the edge, so it doesn't really matter. This was done with Asus p7p55 LX, a cheap board.

Hrm, that's 3 times now I've heard a BCLK wall being mentioned with this RAM. Dern... I think I'll have to get some Ripjaws instead. Strange that they both (well, the Ripjaws I'd get, 2000 CL9) use BBSE but this stuff has a hard time getting a high BCLK.
Yeah there is a wall that i can't get past, after 210 i can't do any thing to make them go farther and i haven't tried crazy voltages.
But I have to ask what RipJaws for the price can do better?

This is the thread I've been following: G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3-2000 CL9 2GB x2 - 2000MHz kits under 100$!!??
Cool runs guys

Yeah they were under a 100.
After i looked at there results i found that it wasn't the Memory that was holding me back it was the IMC. IMC @ 1.35v=210BCLK, 220 seems a little out there though, I think i may be able to get it there though. If not i'll see what i can manage @210.
I benched a bit there not even close to stable at 2100 and performance seems to be going backwards, I did however reach 25GB/s Bandwidth in Sandra. But Everest was all over the place.
So i guess i reached the limit. with my last benchmark.
After more testing, it seems to come down to voltage. The extra IMC voltage gave me more stability at 1.3v but the memory seems to need i'm guessing at least 1.75 to come close to stable at 2100. I can't test that theory though I don't have the cooling to do that. But i did try 1.7 and did notice improved benchmark scores, my next voltage step is 1.8 and I'm not ready to go there yet.
