    I think when this thread started Ben085 was using Crucial Ballistix in the original screen shots and overclocks, only after they died did he switch to Mushkin Redlines. I see you already have your Ballistix, I just went by Crucial.com today to order and they have pulled all the 1GB DIMMs from stock. I contacted a rep and they said they are in disussion with the manufacturer on whether they will be back in stock again at some point or whether they are EOL. Just too many burnt out RMA's I suppose.

    I've had really good luck with my new Gskil 2x1Gb GBHZ. 270 1:1 at 2.8 volts 3-4-4-7.

    It will go higher but I haven't tried finding the limit yet. It will go 273 1:1 with no errors in memtest 12+ hours, but my 148 mem controller starts flaking out at that speed using the default multi. Still very good performance and speed for under $200.

    I just put a 148 in yesterday and i am having the same issue. No post, shut down and then she goes fine. It happens when I put more than 1.525 volts to the cpu with more than 2950mhz.

    Those of you who don't have the warm boot problem while OCing, what kind of sytems are you using? Like do you have a IDE or SATA CD/DVD ROM, etc.

    I cranked up all the voltages and all voltages at the max does nothing to cure the problem.
