    My DFI has flatlined my redline....

    Oh man am I p**sed off, this is the second time this has happened with two different lots of ram (Mushkin and OCZ).

    My DFI mobo has very kindly killed my brand new Mushkin Redline

    This has happened before with some OCZ VX PC4000 I had, except on that occasion it killed both sticks, this time its feeling generous and has let me off with just the one. (So far anyway, I'm just waiting on the other one dying.)

    I HAVE STAYED WITHIN VOLTAGE SPEC, and have 6 fans cooling the dimms.

    The first time it happened I just put it down to bad luck, but twice?

    In between the VX and the Mushkin, I have been using TCCD with no real problems, other than it doesn't like anything over 2.7v (higher gives memtest errors). I put this down to the memory but it seems strange.

    I have done nothing wrong and again I now have to RMA my ram (most likely at my cost...AGAIN...and most likely gonna take weeks AGAIN).

    To be honest I'm thinking of changing my mobo, I've had enough
