    But then again we dont have that much information about long-term usage.
    I will give my sticks 2.4V max for 24/7 usage.
    Thats already 0.2V more than the sticks are rated for and 0.6V over jedec specs.
    Maybe 2.3V will do it as well.
    Gah who knows, no risk, no fun
    Tell me... what's the use of running your ram at eg 800 3-3-3 for 24/7?
    Personally I can't feel any difference with 667MHz 3-3-3 or even 667MHz 4-4-4...
    It's senseless to overvolt your ram 24/7. You're killing it, your max overclock will degrade over time.

    :edit:
    I just looked, currently mine is running at 533MHz 3-3-3-9 (1.8v).
    If someone told me it's at 800MHz 3-2-2-1 I would have believed him, just can't feel the difference.
    Altough, high numbers still look great
