the second concern is that 540 isn't nearly as spectacular as the review modules sent out at the end of last year which were hitting 560-600. my modules will go up to 550 (maybe), but now i'm running them on a divider at 520 because they won't go 1:1 with my cpu (and for the record, they are very stable despite the use of a divider). now obviously 520 is not very exceptional, and i could have bought much cheaper memory for comparable results.
also, ozzimark is right about asus boards and this memory. you need to make clear to people (and ask your distributors to do the same) that they will need to get a different motherboard if they don't want to run 2T.
