OCZ Platinum sticks - Has ANYBODY been successful with them?

[aggybong]

Update: It seems this may be an issue only with Asus P965 boards and this particular ram. Everyone with reported success are using Gigabyte boards or 975x boards (minus one guy who had issues with his P5WDH). This may be a BIOS issue, and the OCZ guys might be able to clear this up now that they have a P5B (Deluxe?) for testing.

------------------------------------------

I'm talking about "OCZ2P8001G" or "OCZ2P8002GK" if you bought them in a dual channel kit, but it probably applies to the Gold sets as well. They supposedly run 4-5-4-15 @ 400mhz with 2.1v. The reason I ask is because I haven't seen very many overclock successes with these sticks, and if it's a widespread problem, it should be known.

Please list your motherboard, settings tried, BIOS versions used, and what you were able to attain at STABLE settings.

For me:
Motherboard: Asus P5B Deluxe
BIOS: 0405, 0502, 0507
Settings tried: EVERYTHING! Maxed out the voltage, disabled everything, enabled everything, everything set to auto, dropped the CPU multiplier just to test FSB\Ram...

The result? The only BIOS that works is the one with broken timings (Can't change them from x-7-7-23) and only at 3Ghz (8x375). With those settings I'm stable for 19 hours in 2xPrime95. If I try to drop the CPU multiplier to 6, I'm still limited by the 375mhz FSB.

The results with the 405 and 507 BIOS are identical. The ram timings are fixed, but since they don't allow 6-7-7-23 settings in the BIOS (max is 6-6-6-18), I can't set up the same exact scenario as with the 502 BIOS. I cannot overclock at all, and even at stock settings my system is flaky. Some reboots will result in errors in Memtest after seconds, other reboots will let me run multiple passes without issue.

I have no idea if it's the RAM itself or if it's just incompatible with the P5B-D. The OCZ guys were nice enough to send me an updated SPD file to flash my ram with, but all that solved was fixing cold boot problems.
